The System is an American synthpop duo consisting of vocalist/guitarist Mic Murphy and seasoned session keyboardist David Frank. The band was founded in 1982 in New York and backed up by Paul Pesco on electric guitar and Kris Khellow - keyboards, synthesizers. Sometimes the group is referred to as an "emotio-electro" band because of their hi-tech, synthesizer-driven sound mated to passionate vocals and sensitive lyrics. - Hudba
Who is listening to this masterpiece in 2024?
ME
I saw the lead singer yesterday in NJ. He still had it. Was hoping he sung this one.
The 80s were a magical time. You had to have lived through it to understand.
2023 AND WE STILL HERE FOR THIS BAD-ASS SONG BY THIS PHENOMENAL GROUP....
The system was underrated
Criminally underrated !!
@@lawrencebenjamin502 What do u mean?
The system is highly rated by me and people
Believe me, they got their more of their fair share of radio air play with this song and more than their fair share of video & radio air play with "Don't disturb this groove." They were a staple of radio air waves during their time. They're still played often on SiriusXM The Groove
The understatement of the year
A black dude and a white dude in the 1980'$ making excellent music nobody could disturb their groove!! That's how you're suppose write music!!
THE SYSTEM WAS THE JOINT !!! Ok in showing my age but, oh well😅
The System + 80s Jeff Lorber = Perfect Playlist 😁 (They're actually working together in one time)
I remember there's also band/collaboration like this in 80s era. "BB and Q Band, Change, Dazz Band, Jeff Lorber" All of them was great 😁
Was my FAVORITE group in my late teens- 20's.
This is a classic example of great collaboration
David Frank and Mic Murphy were masters of electro-funk. Incredibly talented duo. This was one of my favourite joints of 1985. And here I am slamming it in September,2022. Love it.
Hey man I been searching for an instrumental jamm that came out in 85' too, it starts off with a horn almost like "just begun", it was hot at the same time this jamm was hot....have any idea?🙏
.... and 2023
I hear you my brother and I’m jamming it in September 6 2023👊🏾🥁🎼
1985 I was 11. I was rocking Swatch watches, wearing Guess jeans and living my best childhood! Thank you The Sytem for the memories and this awesome song 🎵 ❤️ 💜 ♥️ 💕!
It'll be the 2080's one day and you will still hear me playing this 100 year old song on whatever device has aged with me too.
💯
the old never die.
DAMN RIGHT
If only I could go back to the 80s to enjoy good ones like !
ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT WOW CONGRATULATIONS 1.LUV SIMPLY SPECTACULAR HALL OF FAME CONGRATULATIONS
THE SYSTEM 4 LIFE CONGRATULATIONS 1.LUV
TIMELESS MUSIC CLASSICS ALBUM
TIMEPIECE
I LUVVVVV THE SYSTEM: I MISS THEIR MUSIC SO MUCH. I WISH THAT THEY WOULD COME BACK.
BECAUSE SOME OF TODAY'S MUSIC
SUCK BIG TIME SERIOUSLY
R-N-B MUSIC doesn't exist anymore
You too 😄😄Dream about those days with each song! Traveling to Chi every weekend to see my sickly grandmother. RIP Grandma Virtie:12/6/1908-8/6/88
@@yolandawilliams5318 may GOD bless her soul
I know right this is still my song 🎵
I just love this song !!!! Mic Murphy and David Frank created such a unique sound of the 80s !!!
Drake Robey More than unique. Genius over the Top !
You know it, dude !!!!The absolute best !!! Jam on, brother !!!!
Drake. Robey. They have a florida feel to them. Miami feel.
I wanna drive in florida with a new corvette convertible blasting this song in the warm hot sun weather
@@antoniocognato5023 Me too, with my '68 Camaro !!! Jam on and party on, bro !!!
Totally agree, so well put together, lyrics, voice, heavy synth bass, love it!
80'S EPIC DECADE
Thank you!
Not gonna lie.... we will never have new music like this..... the 70s through 90s were the best years....
The lead singer is so handsome. Definitely has that 80’s flair to him. This song is something to be played at sunset in a red corvette.
Tears of joy flowing as I listened to this song again reminding me of all the good things happening around me then and my girlfriend I met then and still together after 30 years.
Beautiful
Nothing beats love. Wishing you both future joy!
❤❤❤
Great, great memories ! They captured the moment, perfectly !
💌💌💌💌💌 beautiful
I tell my parents all the time how I am jealous that they got a chance to live through some of the best moments of music in the 70’s and 80’s
I can't tell you how much I loved this song while stationed as a Navy sailor in Florida in the 80's. Each time I hear this song it takes me back to that time. God...If I could just hit rewind! Cheers!
Man, do I agree!!!! Whew!!!
Man I hear ya!! Camp Pendleton MCB Oceanside Ca. You can have the Marines,but the old friends and the music... Take me back right now
Ronald James so true i always think of summertime one og my favorites by them. those were the days
it is a summer track fresh breeze definetely
Mr James me too I was a shallow water sailor in the 80's Coast Guard takes me back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The system was no joke...Got turned on to them in 1984 stationed in Abilene Texas.....then the Philippines....but upon my return to the USA " Don't disturb this groove " was blowing up...
87
Bro...I was at Ft. Campbell, Kentucky.....good times!
Not Dyess? LoL!
Yes my brother....we made the best of....it
I'd like to dedicate this song to a very special man, he knows who he is! This is for Lou❤!
THE SYSTEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These guys called the system had some hits and very underrated
Listen to Dont disturb this groove, my favorite of all time!
The synth bass is terrific, these guys were top👌🏻
Thank you for the love ❤❤
"But there was something in your eyes"... This for you! It's the most I can do!!!
I love this song!
Dana T.
Not many people knew how Awesome The System were.
So true. They worked so well together and made QUALITY music.
damn right !!!!!
...im not one of those people,thank God! Lol
I DID FROM DAY 1 SIR
and some of us do!!!!!!!!!!! WUSB.fm NY - WAXX TRAXX TO THE MAXX !!!!!!!
One of the most beautiful classic songs of all time
Crusing with my lady the other day and this popped up on SeriusXM and has been stuck in my head. Great memories from 1985 and this Duo.
This is for you Nikki, your Stinkmeaner.❤
Enjoying making new memories with you, Stink 🥰😘
This is still the best track! I can see Bruno Mars ripping this off but can never be as awesome as this!
Hell yeah he probably working on it!! Lol.
So true
Yo are soooooo! Right!
cant stand Bruno
@@africanhistory I can't stand people that love Bruno Mars and hate on 'old' music like this
Out of all of the hit and miss hacks of the '80s, this duo stood head and shoulders above many of them.
From musical arrangement and just plain overall musicianship to vocals and how TIGHT the band played enhanced by Mic's emotional vocal stylings, they were SEVERELY underrated and dismissed.
So happy to have FINALLY found this tune and added it proudly to my collection.
Semper Fi guys...wherever you are.
You are missed by so many!
This song is so magical. You are effortlessly floated to music heaven
Music this day and age cannot hold a candle to music in the past
Bring back R&B music 🎶🎶
#TheSystemForever 2024
I didn't know that The System was this awesome!
You should a been there in 1985 then
PM dawn albums next..... 90s feel but similar......🍇
The System TOTALLY ROCKS,,,,,,ONE OF THE BEST BANDS OF THE 80's
Best ever!
The System. One of the best to ever do it. Great music, good memories.
This is gold.......men i miss those days
I found this in a charity shop! I played it over and over. I still love it.
One of the greatest underrated Soul funk classic tracks from 1985 by the brilliant T
R.A.F BENTWATERS U.K. action .Miss the family and homies. Plz stay safe and keep your heads up.
I'll always have my dad to thank for knowing The System I remember hearing Passion when I was barely in Kindergarten, I was a very observant kid aware of my environment and all the different sounds and synths incorporated in their music as well as a large chunk of the 80's, it was always mesmerizing to me, a pleasure for the ears.
I just heard this for the first time in decades on SiriusXM. A classic from high school days. 🎶💖🎶
God tier synth programming from Dave Frank. The System were such an important band in the evolution of electro and boogie into house.
these guys and jam/lewis were monsters on synth bass. and the complex drum programming is still mind blowing.
Thank you ❤❤
My favourite song by The System!
One of several for me. This is so smooth and mellow. A good car riding tune.
Top down or sunroof open, cruising on down the road ....
B.I.S.O.N.: BRISTOL SCREENWRITER NONSTUDENT . This was my group in the 80's!!
Mine too 💕
What a freaking glorious tune. Blew me away the first time I heard it back in the 90's.
ME TOO
This came out in the 80's
Welcome to the 1980s the move underrated era of music!!(iMO) Sincerely yours Generation X my regards 💯💯🤔💯
@@DLICIOUS42 indeed - sadly I first heard it in the 90's.
I could never get tired of listening to The System 🥰🥰🤩💫
The system brought such greatness to music in the 80's. I truly wish this type of music was still being offered by artist today❤
Still listening.2020.
Goosebumps all over the place
If all Mic Murphy and David Frank ever did with their lives was create this one song, that would be more than enough. One of the greatest records EVER, IMO. (BTW, they did much, much more than this song: "Promises Can Break", "It's Passion", "You Are In My System", "This Is My Night" for Chaka...)
They were Awesome! I can listen to this one and DDTG on Repeat Forever. ☺️ Just IMAGINE if they had continued making music up to today! 😥
I love the System! I bought this album on vinyl back in 1985 and been hooked ever since. Music couldn't be finer and funky that that. They were really one of a kind as a R&B group. Should had been much, much bigger.
They weren't bigger because there was more then enough talent to go around back in the 80's
THE SYSTEM RAN IT....PERIOD!! THEY STILL HAVE NO RIVAL,THEY R MUSIC ARCHITECTS/SOUNDTRACKERZ OF A BEAUTIFUL THING CALLED LIFE.LOVE,MEMORIES,ALL GOOD!!
Just heard this song today on XM radio channel 50, I haven’t heard it in years downloaded it immediately, I absolutely loved The System !!
two very talented dudes.....
Mic Murphy IS the most poetic lyricist of the time - every song was a plea for love return - absolute genius when combined with David Franks one-of-a-kind production style! SIKK-GOOD #Brilliance
Lagos, Nigeria FM makes my Saturday nights exciting with system.
Classic music!
Way ahead of the curve. Techno-funk at its best. 1985. This was the 1980s.It wouldn't work today.
I know man!
2022 still jammin this awesome masterpiece.. Love The System.. Always have.. Always will!

ADDENDUM: No one but Mic Murphy can sing this song!
Listening to it again in 2019 i still say 80s tunes are by far the best we've had The system are in a class of their own
Back in the 80's Robbie Vincent on Sunday night radio in the UK used to play The System. That's how I got into them. So glad for that. Anyone else remember him playing them?
love the 80's!!!!!!!!
My favorite group of the 80's!❤
They were so underrated! "This is for you" is such a sweet song...
The system are one of the greatest group in the 80s when listen to the system it takes me back to when I had good times in the 80s
❤
I bought this album when it was first released on vinyl. Hot off the presses! This was my jam in 1985.
Like I said one of the best 80 s groups the system David frank mic Murphy they were ahead of their time the beats sounds electronics mic Murphy s voice just amazing phenomenal
With you I find that love is forever,
The more I give to thee, the more I have to give,
so, take it
(take it)
i like to do things for myself
i never waste and never want
i guess I'm that way with my love
i've never died a broken heart
but there was something in your eyes
that make long for tender times
(tender times)
A temporary loss to passions design
and in moment your love was mine
I was all alone and love was overdue
(hard for me, baby)
now there is a part of me that i want to give to you
over and over
chorus
This is for you
(it's the most i can do)
and i want to give it too you girl
Its a part of me
(it's the very heart of me)
for you to, always keep
and always keep this love
This is for you
I'll face the truth about myself
i've never trusted anyone
to give as much love in return
at least until, you came along
but there was something in your smile
that made me long for tender times
(tender times)
a temporary lost to passion design
and in a moment your love was mine
I was all alone and love was overdue
(hard for, baby)
now there is a part of me that i want to give to you
over and over
chorus
This is for you
it's the most i can do
and i want to give it too you girl
Its a part of me
it's the very heart of me
for you to, always keep
It's yours to keep baby
This is for you
it's the most i can do
it's a part of me
for you to always keep
baby, always keep this love
Now there's apart of me that i want too give to you
over and over
chorus
This is for you
Its the most I can do
Its the most I can do girl
It's a part of me
Wanna give it over and over again
for you to alwats keep
yeah yeah
This is for you
Its the most I can do
Baby, when im touching you

For you...
This is for you girl

Oh the memories. Walking the city streets with my cassette Walkman and this jam lighting up my heart.
Favorite song from them 80,s best decade of all music miss the 80s
Thank you!
This is for you, its the most I can do. 1980's What a care free time I was enjoying! I 💕 this song... Shout out to Groovy 🙂💕🎉. This is for u Lou ❣️..
I said it once and I’ll say it again, The System was the most underrated band of the 80’s…
Very underrated band. This is Gold!!
Mic, your Vocals are fire Bro!!! Hall of Famers to Me, and David's Funky Synth, can not be touched!!!
They had the video to this song on CZcams...bring it back, it completes the song and memories for me... 80's best for R& B and '90-'96 was the best for hip hop... Bring back ol' school...Please, Yes...Gone, but not forgotten!!
A nice walk down memory lane 👌👌
I love the system!!! Great group.
This was my Saturday jam, 🎸 🙌 there is always that one group,that one song, or songs that remind you of sunny days with your family or friends and great music 🎶 and barbecues.
Such a great 80s soul funk disco tune I was 18 when this was out great time in my life
I listened to this song probably 10 thousand times
Such a brilliant tune of its time ... and still great all these years later. Everything is perfect in this track and defines the excellence of Murphy and Frank. One of my fave tracks of the 80s. Good times
David frank was the most awesome keyboard player I have ever heard
"STILL DA BOMB ON JANUARY 2021"!!!!!
That song would be a hit even today 👍❤️
WHAT SOME AWESOME VOCALS BY THIS LEAD SINGER & HIS BACKGROUND SINGERS!! LOVE THIS TRACK AS WELL AS THE ALBUM!! AWESOME!!
Mic did most of his backing vocals..System self contained..
They were one of the hottest duos back in the day.I still listen to them.
Still Feelin' this yrs. later 🌸🌸🌸🌸
To provide an illustration of an infectious song, it would be THIS. You cannot help but smile or feel relaxed when listening to this song. THE SYSTEM have many gems in their body of work; thus, they are underrated/unsung.
Had a MAJOR CRUSH on Mic Murphy..."Class of 1985" ...💙💙💙
One of the best tunes from the 80s
In memory of living loving and dancing, teens of today so missed out ❤
This is my favorite song ever! So fly!
This will be a great song to play Langston University Marching Pride Band for this year. 'This Is For You by The System!'

Inspirational track!!
Remminds me how I left Philly at 17 . My sister believed in me. This is for my late sister Angie who told me I was something special. " This is for You" Angie!!! Miss u . There is nothing greater than someone who believes in you when you are not even sure. She never got to see my records and tours. " This is for You Angela.. " It's the most I can do"... Happy Birthday Angela Lynell Smith....
Pure genius and excellent craftsmanship!
Shiiid I've been a fan since they dropped back in the day. This shit still go hard!
Brilliant the System this is for you
Timeless Soul funk classic track even in 2023 Superb
An ex sent to me a few days ago. Forgot all about this, and it's totally not like me to forget good 80s R&B Classic ❤️
