Being a child of the 1980s', MJ has always loved the many renditions of this classic New Wave song by The System as/since growing up from being a kid, so he redid it for modern audiences, with a still dance-inspiring beat and new bass wobbles, but recessed, refined.
He also loved Robert Palmer's work, but a mere Elecro-Funk remix just wouldn't do the song ITSELF justice, thus this amazing cover.
LYRICS:
Day by day and night by night
I feel you in my mind;
It happens all the time.
You know the day dreams stop
My heart beats on
I can't take it any more
It's you I live for!
You are in my system;
You are in my system.
Don't you, Don't you, don't you know that, babe?
I will keep on pushing, pushing, pushing
Until I get through.
My main objective baby is to get to you.
To turn your mind around
I know will take time,
But you know I can wait, now
You're on my mind.
...cos'
You are in my system.
You are in my system.
I just want you to know that,
You are in my system, system.
Got me burning, I'm on fire (whoaaah)
You are, you're in my system-
You're everything I need!
(dance break/rap)
To turn your mind around
I know will take time,
But you know I can wait, now
You're on my mind.
..'cos
You are in my system
I just want you to know that,
You are in my system;
got me right down to my wire.
You are in my system, system
Got me burning, I'm on fire (whoaaah)
You are, you're in my system-
You're everything I need!
