Shame on me for having forgotten for a while that this exists. This Robert Palmer cover was recorded for the only album made by Sonic Youth's Madonna-fascinated alter ego Ciccone Youth. The vocals were recorded over a karaoke track that was then used for a one-take shoot in a music video booth set up at a Macy's. As you can see, Gordon opted for the military montage backdrop to lip sync and groove in front of, because what other scenery would you choose for this, really.
If you aren't already familiar, Ciccone Youth also recorded an honest-to-goodness great cover/reimagining of "Into the Groove"!
