  • One of Numan's best tracks.........

  • Perfect song for the Anime "Space Runaway Ideon."

  • Very haunting, but beautiful song. Gary at his best

  • Absolutely my favourite Numan song:so poignant, evocative and haunting!

    I interviewed Gary last week for Keyboard Player Magazine, and was tickled

    to get the chance to tell him how much this beautiful song means to me.

    He was a complete class act;probably the nicest artist yet that I've interviewed!

  • This song just breaks my heart. I don't know why, nothing specific in my past that I can recall. Maybe it collects little thoughts and regrets and bundles the emotion of them all for 5 minutes and 40 seconds. Christ, I got tears in my eyes just typing this. Bless you Gary, the one true musical genius of my lifetime...

  • @Lesmc1of3 Indeed, I often have to stop writing responses due to my own emotions causing my eyes not being able to see. My greatest love is music, therefore few gain my attention. Gary remains a genius as you say, so is Elton, Freddie,Geddy,Neil, Alex. All I speak of here provoke tears from a grown man's eyes.

  • This tune has always had the ability to relax me,used to love to lie in dark room with headphones on and just chill,brilliant,brilliant,bril­liant!!

  • bought this as a cassette !(believe it or not) 10 years ago from a book store for 5 bucks ! wow what an incredible album....Gary's finest moment as far as I'm concerned. such beauty, and power....

  • first time i,ve heard this song for years. beautiful

  • this is detecated to my late sister sylvia n...everything is backwards for me ,but hits every memory of her love for her family and children love you sis.see you in the end...again.....dolphina are so smart and people are killing them for the reasons of (we havegone far and we are killing the prime sources of life....man and progression does nothing ,but harm.........

  • @38darknessdelight I agree sort of, could you explain further?

  • this is detecated to my late sister sylvia n...everything is backwards for me ,but hits every memory of her love for her family and children love you sis.see you in the end...again.....

  • From so long ago..but musically a real emotional gem. Feel it., gentle emotions and a beautiful emoticon! Sorry im such an electronic emo......so what. Class. Thankyou Mr N

  • keep telling everyone gary was the motzart of his day... beutifly ecclectic and an amazing ability to weave sound in ways that to this day not many can match... just wanted to get my two cents in and now the i pass the soap box to the left :)

  • @Waldstiem Oh my, Oh my indeed. I was aware the man was ahead of his time even then. Curious it is someone noticed other than me?

  • adore this song ,, miss my dad , 2 years gone and now my daughter leaves home .. this song is always in my head .. peace and love .. dad rip x

  • I have loved this song since I was 17

  • We played this at my brother's funeral in '97 and everyone there that didn't know Numan were just blown away.

  • I have this in my collection. Forgot how good it is

  • Which contrasts with Push it to the Limit from Scarface

  • Back when this album came out, I found this song to be an anti-bulling song. How apppropriate is this song in this day and age? Gary Numan for the ages.......

  • less is more, and if this is love, I'll love it forever.

  • Easily one of my favourite Numan songs. So sad.

  • It's probably Lugia, singing form the deep sea. Wow it's so obvious, try to hear it again.

  • @Kenckaplus Only saw your comment today! XD

    Yes, I can hear the Lugia singing in the background. XD

  • There is a pokemon singing together. haven't you noticed?

    By the way... beautiful song :)

  • @Kenckaplus I haven't noticed. Which pokémon is it?

  • My Sweet in Los angangles ..

  • Great song...just Beautiful...one of my favorite Gary numan's songs.

  • the lyrics are very simple but say so much concerning tenderness and the fragility of feeling

    it makes one vulnerable---soul baring

  • please push no more life and everything !

  • Wow I just discovered this and it is beautiful, I am starting to think that Mr Numan has the best Outr'os in the business. I am 23 years old and pillage the You tube library for my listening pleasure all the time, without this I would never have found so many songs I am now enjoying... Thankyou, YouTube without you I would never have discovered these Jems..

  • @MsSandyZ So good to read what you said, try jo the waiter, child with a ghost, ancients,, all so different but so good.

  • Love this,, saw him live twice..... quality

  • This is one of the songs that has haunted me all of my life. It resonates with the sadness and melancholy that serves as the inner lining of my soul.

    "We are close, we are hurt. // So that was love?"

    " ... And love she kills me. // It needs to so."

  • This should be the Twilight casts new theme song! Seriously lovely song

  • I've followed this bloke from the start. He has change as all things do over time. I think what he does now is brilliant but I never forget his past and this track sums it up. Obviously last time I saw him no way was he doing any of this but personally I would love to see him do a concert that he does a, here's where I started to here's where I am at. I beleive it would be a sell out!

  • i'm a 43 yr old male n i've got tears rollin down my face. WOW!! Still as good as ever

  • @inumane1 - Amen.

  • my soul bleads as it decends into the abyss and I leave this word behind

  • The best song on the album.

  • I cannot be with a man unless he loves Gary Numan. c:

  • Comment removed

  • I feel in a reciprocal way, but i hope not have to resemble him, there's few men and women that do, but i never got on long with anyone who didn't like him, musically.

  • I actually find him to be attractive...don't know why. Even more so that he's gotten older. I just love him all in all. Hahaha!!

  • the 80's are no more! i wish everyday was the 80's

  • what a beautiful song this is. in his early years he was incredible and forward. his music was bold, but he eventually had to fit into a slot. .... he made some fantastic music..very very under-rated. are friends electric still sounds incredible after 30 years.

  • You gotta hear this out camping at a lonely Manitoba lake in summer at night, those lonely synths sound like loones across the lake,gorgeous, that's way i heard it

  • @heimbecker11

    That is cool man

    Im stuck in crappy UK

  • Thanx dude, but you should be proud,that's where all the action is with his tours, for him to graciously touch our shores is too much to ask,and i know why,so i'm stuck here with the Guess Who. Bloody Peggers here only like ska, blues and funny colledge rock country.

  • Suits my mood perfectly -you were a genius Gary

  • Great tune, loved it when I first heard it, love it now.

  • wikiid :) x

  • This song isn't happy D:

    It is wonderful, and amazing, but I don't find this happy.

  • well sad song :/ but its so good, lovce gary numan, and im only 14 lol

  • Sick.lol im 16 nice to see another young person love gary numan! :)

  • This song describes about me & my (now - ex) fiancee.

    "The telephone lines blind."

    Perfect, seeing as she ignores me now!

  • but you talk on the phone? he means you can't see the person on the other end of the line.

  • just realized when shutting down xp this song 's refrain is played

  • Deceptively simple yet so very well crafted, bravo again.

  • Beautiful song.

  • What a peaceful song.

  • this has a good happy feel to it, though it's kinda sad, the piano is best.

  • this is the song to be happy with since 1980

  • This was played live a few times, but its' hardly on any live albums.

  • It's only on Living Ornaments 81 as a live song I think.
