He was known for his soulful voice and the eclectic mix of musical styles on his albums, combining soul, jazz, rock, reggae, blues, and even yodeling. His eighties hits were promoted by particularly striking award winning videos, featuring an all-female, black-clad backing band. The memorable videos, directed by Terence Donovan, featured heavily on MTV and played a large part in his transatlantic success.

I'll Be Your Baby Tonight Lyrics

Robert Palmer

Close your eyes - close the door
You don't have to worry any more
I'll be your baby tonight
Shut the light - shut the shade
You don't have to be afraid
I'll be your baby tonight
Well, the mockingbird's gonna sail away
We're gonna forget it
Big old moon's gonna shine like a spoon
We're gonna let it - you won't regret it
Kick your shoes off - do not fear
Bring that bottle over here
I'll be your baby tonight
Be my baby
Be my baby
Be my baby
Be my baby
I'll be your baby tonight
Well, the mockingbird's gonna sail away
We're gonna forget it
Big old moon's gonna shine like a spoon
We're gonna let it - you won't regret it
Kick your shoes off - do not fear
Bring that bottle over here
I'll be your baby tonight
Be my baby
Be my baby
Be my baby
Be my baby
I'll be your baby tonight
I'll be your baby tonight
I'll be your baby tonight
