The System was an American synth pop duo from the 1980s.The duo consists of vocalist/guitarist Mic Murphy and seasoned session keyboardist David Frank. The band was founded in 1982 in New York. The System's greatest success came in 1987 with "Don't Disturb This Groove," from the album of the same name. The single reached #1 on the Billboard R&B chart and #4 on the Hot 100. The follow-up single from the album, "Nighttime Lover" was also a top 10 R&B hit, peaking at #7. Murphy and Frank parted ways professionally after releasing their Rhythm & Romance album in 1989 but reunited in 2000 for the album ESP, which also featured a reworked version of "You Are In My System".

Murphy recorded the solo album Touch and charted in 1991 with a single from that project. Frank has found more recent success as a songwriter and producer, most notably with his work on Christina Aguilera's "Genie in a Bottle" in 1999 and teen girl-group Dream's "He Loves U Not" in 2000. Both were big hits.
