Subject: Addicted To Love/Man, I Feel Like A Woman
Written By: OliverDK on 08/16/05 at 6:36 am
I've spoken with some of my friends about it, but they can't see it, so I'm asking you people; I recently saw the videos for Robert Palmer's "Addicted To Love" and Shania Twain's "Man, I Feel Like A Woman" and it seems to me that she must have seen his video before she made her own, I'd like to know if anyone agree with me on this.

Is the Robert Palmer video the one with all the girls dressed in black. They've got their hair scraped back and they are all wearing bright red lipstick.
If it is that one then I did see another video that reminded me of it and it could have been the Shania Twain song, but I couldn't swear to it.
Can you find a link to them?

That's the one...they were all 'playing' instruments behind him...
It was much talked-about at the time - some people claimed that it was 'sexist' by portraying women in a 'dumb' role, (or something like that), so p'raps Shania was using it as a tongue-in-cheek response...

In Shania's video the girls have been exchanged for muscular guys "playing" instruments.

Didn't he also use them in another video at about the same time? Simply Irresistible perhaps?

Not sure...that's the only one I remember (I'm not too hot on videos!)
