Gary Numan, Devo, Blondie, Talking Heads, Flock of Seagulls, Soft Cell... the list goes on and on all hit the nail on the head for me. New Wave/Post-Punk really is the shit.
Gary Numans best songs in my opinion are 1) Are friends electric? 2) We are glass 3) Remind me to smile 4) Strange Charm 5) Your Fascination 6) The aircrash bureau 7) Shes got claws 8) We take the mystery to bed 9) Crash 10) Metal 11) Complex 12) I Can't stop it 13) A Ghost With a Child 14) Miracles 15) My Dying Machine 16) Cars 17) Moral 18) A Game Called Echo
@badamj2000 he's come back but it seems his style has changed for a more of a hardcore sound. He has even toured with Trent Reznor (NIN) but I miss his older sound. Still a fantastic artist.
I love this! I agree Gary has a cracking sense of humour !!! Met him in September 80 and was lucky to go back stage and meet Tubeway Army and Nash the slash also. Gary kept on larfing and looking up at me and my best mate all through the concert, made 2 14 year olds at the time very happy! This defo Gary at his best!!!
The pretty lady was his girlfriend at the time - Tracy Adams. I was always really jealous of her when I was a teenager because she didn't live far from me & I'd been a fan of Gary's for ages.
"The stupid mouth thing around the 35th second, brilliant. Steve Coogan should do a parody of this twat."
silence fool!
Anyway, in Alan Partridge series 2, he did a scene where he did air guitar to Music For Chameleons by this particular "twat". So oviously Steve Coogan doesnt mind Numan at all. YOU LOSE!
I know what you mean.I used to own this LP,till I bought the remastered CD.Although Numan's style at that time was Robert palmer/Prince sounding,there was some great tracks.Like God Only Knows And I Still Remember.Thanks for being a fan!!!
I saw Numan perform this track in Newcastle some years ago at a small venue on the Quayside and the sound of the waveteam's synths in this track was simply awesome !!
Have you read is autobiography? Where his Credit Cards we're taken away from him in the 80's? Have you heard of Rock City ? He got rid of that in the late 1980's when he was bankrupt. Sorry to upset you....
ero innamorata di lui........!!!!!!!!!

Very interesting. I can parts of Prince in the vid, some of which drifts away from the point though. Good concept needed finishing.
Music curious, clunky synths sounds like the start of something new, which it was.
Remember, GN was ground breaking in the early 80's.
