      Thanks for recognizing the synths cause I truly believe they can make a song special. Just got into an argument with someone about how the executive producer is the one that gets the credit for the music. I know David was the producer but for anyone that plays the synths my hats off to you! The kinda music I grew up on.♥️😘

    You're so deep you should have been an ocean
    And I'd be your river, baby
    I wanna let you know, girl
    Your every wave is sending my emotion
    Under a bridge of devotion, oh yeah
    Every night, all day long
    Can't stop thinkin' about your love (About your love)
    I wanna get into love, girl
    I can't fight it, it's just too sweet
    Can't be strong when my heart is weak (My heart is weak)
    You know exactly what I need
    Oh-oh, ooh...
    Have mercy, mercy
    Please don't leave me thirstin'
    So crazy, you've got to
    Know I can't live without you (I can't live without you)
    Have mercy, mercy
    You know this heart is worthy
    And down deep, no doubting
    You're all I'm ever wanting (All I'm ever wanting)
    So, baby, have mercy
    Ooh, mercy on me
    So crazy about you
    No, I can't live my life without you
    You're so sweet, you must be 'cause the bees sting
    There's nothing good easy
    I've gotta getcha, honey
    Sunshine morning, don't it always make the birds sing?
    You know how to please me
    Every night, all day long
    I keep thinkin' about your love (About your love)
    And it's beginning to haunt me
    I can't fight it, a love this sweet
    Can't be strong when my heart is weak (My heart is weak)
    You know exactly what I need
    Oh-oh, ooh...
    Have mercy, mercy
    Please don't leave me thirstin'
    So crazy, you've got to
    Know I can't live without you (I can't live without you)
    Have mercy, mercy
    You know this heart is worthy
    And down deep, no doubting
    You're all I'm ever wanting (All I'm ever wanting)
    So, baby, have mercy
    Ooh, mercy on me
    So crazy about you
    No, I can't live my life without you
    Mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
    Mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
    Mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
    Mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
    Oh-oh, baby
    Have mercy, mercy
    Please don't leave me thirstin'
    So crazy, you've got to
    Know I can't live without you (I can't live without you)
    Have mercy, mercy
    You know this heart is worthy
    And down deep, no doubting
    You're all I'm ever wanting (All I'm ever wanting)
    So, baby, have mercy
    Mercy on me, yeah
    So crazy about you
    Know I can't live without you (I can't live without you)
    Have mercy, mercy
    Please don't leave me thirstin'
    So crazy, you've got to
    Know I can't live without you
    'Cause what I feel inside
    Ooh, baby, I can't hide
    And it's down so deep
    Baby, show a little mercy for me
    'Cause what I feel inside
    Ooh, baby, I can't hide
    And, girl, your love's so sweet
    Baby, show a little mercy

      work interwoven with Mic's vocals put you a cut above your contemporaries .

      Palex, Soul to Soul was and still is one of our best. We wanted it to be first single from R and R but our label head at the time told us she didn't like the "soul" music reference in the title. 3 months later she released Soul 2 Soul the English band. We always suspected that was the true reason. In any case the song lives on as music does:) Love won't Wait is a really cool musical entity which we cowrote with guitar player Paul Pesco. He also cowrote I Wanna Make You Feel Good and Promises can Break and I'm Dangerous. These were the only cowrites we did on the Atlantic Albums. We worked so hard on an of this music 24/7 and we continue to do that to this day with the music we are writing now although it's more like 23/6 now...HAHA. thx again. I'll forward your comments to Mic and Paul too

      If you haven't, check out the synthwave genre. Its where the hipper kids of the 2,000's have resurrected the synths and drum machines of the System's era and given it a whole new lease of life. Check out a YT poster called Electronic Gems he has the biggest site for the sound.
