The project was a collaborative effort between the band's namesake James "D. Train" Williams, who was featured as the lead vocalist and songwriter, and Hubert Eaves III, a keyboardist and producer who performed the instrumentation on the recordings. Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, Williams himself was a R&B/dance producer as well. He and Eaves met during high school and began performing together. Eaves would spend most of the 1970s as a member of the R&B band Mtume. However, by the 1980s, he and Williams had teamed up again. The group named themselves "D. Train" after a nickname Williams had acquired as a football player in high school.
D. Train released their first single "You're the One For Me" in late 1981. The track became an instant success, hitting #1 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart that year; it has been remixed and re-released successfully several times since, and was contemporaneously covered by Paul Hardcastle with vocalist Kevin Henry in the United Kingdom. The duo's self-titled debut album (which prominently featured the "You're the One For Me" title on the front cover, and the album sometimes became known by this name) followed in early 1982, and several additional singles from this effort were successful on both the R&B and Dance charts, although they were not as popular as the debut hit. Among these tracks were "Keep On," which reached #2 on the Dance chart, and a cover version of the Burt Bacharach/Hal David penned "Walk On By", that owed more to the Isaac Hayes version than to Dionne Warwick's original recording.
In 1983, the band released their follow-up album, Music. The title track became another dance-floor anthem and is the most gospel infused of D-Train's floor fillers.[citation needed] This track nearly equalled the success of the group's debut single. Several other singles from the album were moderately successful.
In 1984, D. Train had their only Billboard Hot 100 entry with "Something's On Your Mind," which climbed to #79 and was later covered by Miles Davis on his album You're Under Arrest. The single also cracked the top five on the R&B chart, becoming the group's biggest hit in that market as well. The accompanying album, also titled Something's On Your Mind, found the band branching out into new musical territory, incorporating elements of reggae and more adult contemporary-oriented R&B into their music.[1] Williams himself played acoustic guitar on a cover of Carole King's "So Far Away".
A Greatest Hits album entitled You're the One for Me- The Very Best of D'Train was issued in several European countries in 1985 [1]. Featured on this compilation was a remixed version of "You're the One for Me," and the tune charted a second time that year. The remixing on this version of the song was done by Paul Hardcastle, who had previously issued a cover version of the song, and by 1985 had become well-known for his own hit "19". Despite this success, the group would disband that same year.

"Music" was a serious jam ❤
What a voice ! Great production !
First time i heard this song like 18 years ago and still listening it, Although I was born in 1988 and missed the whole atmosphere of the 80-s.

I bet they did!! I recently heard this on Sirius for the 1st time. & I got to moving 2 the beat while driving. The only songs I knew from D Train @ the time were Keep On & You're The Only One For Me. I added this to my playlist, & it instantly became my favorite song from. Played it while taking a road trip & everyone got to dancing.
GROWN BLACK MAN FUNK! After the bridge Interlude is INSANE!

d train killed it
I was 8 when this song came out and I can remember this song playing everywhere. Everybody danced off of this. Still listening 2024❤❤
The D Train is on time
D Train was the man back in the day
Have most of their albums on vinyl. Came to NYC from Sweden in the early eighties and listened a lot to WBLS, which was a kind of a revival of how good Music could be. D-train was very much a part of this.
James D-Train Williams was tight cat. Awesome vocals. Never missed any of his albums back in the day. RIP Hubert Eaves. Thank you for the gift of music.
LOVE this track....always have, always will...

D Train was really on to something. He had such a polish yet heavy sound for the 80s. Fanatastic vocals and harmonies. He's truly an r&b pioneer

Yeh those Polish really have a knack for a groove..
Back in the day it was all about You’re The One For Me, Keep on, Music, Walk On By. I came to this one late - but I now think it’s my favourite of all of them!
Best Band from the 80's !!! Fi-End quality of the time when the mono was the standard in the Eastern Europe. We loved this stuff... Greatings form Hungary, thank you for good old days!!!
I've loved and listened to this song on a very regular basis ever since it was released in 1983.🤩

I've been riding the D Train for years and didn't even know it. Hot Damn! Good music!
I never get tired of this one. LOVE IT.
D Train FOREVER. From Brazil.
la ligne de basse "d train" sur des accoustimass, ça parcours les entrailles, that's keeping me in love
As a kid from the 80s I don't understand how I could have missed out on D-Train!?! This is just a splendid track, both musically and in terms of message.
On en revient tjs à D Train. Un génie indépassable. Une bombe à neutrons sur les dance floors, à l'époque comme aujourd'hui.
D Train. Indépassable.
D train el phénomène du pur funf 80's for ever
All time classic 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The best great song 🥰
À l'époque une simple boîte à rythmes avec un bon synthétiseur suffisais pour faire cette tuerie.....Dtrain et les autres the best
my favorite d-train song and the best version...they really knew how to make an extended version of song back then. Prince is the last of the great extended version artist.
This was my go to song in a talent show back in 1983!! That groove and that voice.
Song is still slamming with the best
IL ne faut rien dire et ecouter. Et tout et dit prener. Du plaisir.
