'You Are In My System'
October 1983
'You Are In My System' first was released in August 1982 as a single by the U.S. band The System.
English singer Robert Palmer heard the song and was eager to record his own version, which in turn became a track on his 1983 album Pride. Palmer released a single of 'You Are In My System' in October 1983; the single reached number 73 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Like the version released by The System, Palmer's take on the song stayed true to its New Wave / Electropop aesthetic, with an emphasis on synthesizer and electronic drums. The accompanying video is noteworthy for its proto-Cyberpunk imagery: Palmer dons a leather trench coat; there are computers; Tron-style vector graphics; neon lights; and noir-style lighting.
