By the mid-1980s, with pop megastars such as Prince and Madonna dominating the music scene alongside arena rock and hair metal, the quartet featuring John Taylor on bass and Andy Taylor on guitar from Duran Duran, lead vocalist Robert Palmer and former Chic drummer Tony Thompson brought together new wave, synth-pop, classic funk and hard rock through a single sound.
Featured on the band's 1985 self-titled album, heavy guitar riffs and explosive drum beats that complemented Palmer's powerful and sharp vocals were a combination that helped the song become the group's defining track.

On Reddit, listeners continued to praise "Some Like It Hot" with one user describing the song’s music video as "like a fever dream.”
“Production carries a lot of weight there. Star line up,” a user added.
According to Taylor, "Some Like It Hot," one of the first songs the band started working on, was a track that meant a lot to him.
Even the music video became a quintessential piece of 1980s MTV culture thanks to its vibrant visuals, neon aesthetic and distinct fashion imagery.
More than four decades after The Power Station released its self-titled debut, “Some Like It Hot” remains a lasting symbol of the supergroup's legacy despite its brief run.
