Application software, is written to perform a specific task (or a group of related tasks). "Microsoft Word" for example is Application software. The application being a word processor.
System software is the code that define what the computer is and how it controls and uses the hardware connected to it.
The computer that controls your VCR needs software to tell it how to use the display screen and what to do when the buttons are pressed etc.. The software that handles this is known as system software.
