Although Robert Palmer had had chart success in the US and Canada, most notably with Top 20 hit "Every Kinda People" in 1978, and the No.1 Canada hit "Bad Case of Loving You" in 1979, he had yet to make the UK Top 30 Chart before this appearance.
The song performed on this edition, "Some Guys Have All The Luck", was his first UK Top 30 hit, reaching 16th position on the chart. However, it wasn't until the mid 1980s with the album "Riptide" and the single "Addicted To Love" that Robert really became a major success in his home country.
