Gary Numan - The Aircrash Bureau

[marcdebarra]

Great tune, still has its unique sounds, this never goes out of date unlike other songs of that year made by other artist in that decade.

[theOGpope]

haha damn i thought i was the only one who shit bricks when hearing this.. i guess i was wrong then

[666prep]

ALL RIGHT i have to admit this is a nice performance.

[whereangelsplay1]

He still looks really uncomfortable playing live , now he has dropped the "arrogant" attutide

[MmeDesgranges]

@whereangelsplay1 You'd do better?

[superunt43]

@MmeDesgranges So surprised to see me?

[dmnddog74]

Beautiful

[gazz1617]

Numan! Numan! Numan! No greater feeling that hearing this song live at concert right near the front, there's only one word for that sound...Euphoric!

[Mammalshaker]

It sends shivers up my spine

[starlorda]

Awesome.

I agree with 'brcampbe', the instrumental chorus is incredible.

[Telekon5]

There's a beautiful piano passage in the last part of this song that gets lost in this version. Still, I think his live performances sound better these days than his earlier days, but his earlier songs were better written than what he currently writes. Just my 2 cents...lol

[fidgit11]

absolutely beautiful. I've never seen him live/in person and can only envy those who have, especially the Wembly concerts. Heard Cars on the radio when I was 10 and was instantly mesmerized by it. I don't know why he wasn't played more in the US, I think he would have been just as successful here had his music been given the airplay. Love his old stuff, love his new stuff. He just keeps getting better...

[ShamansMagic]

Look for him in the US a few months after "Dead Son Rising" (the next album) comes out. He was in the US following the releases of "Exile" and "Jagged", although I'm not sure about "Pure". I was having a kid born at the time & wasn't concerned with concerts...

[JarrodCook93]

@ShamansMagic Yeah he did the US Pure concert in 2000-01.

You lucky bastards in UK and US he's only played 3 Australian shows since 1979, all last year

[ManDown4]

TELEKON a masterclass in action and timeless art caught on plastic

[hodgietwo]

I adore this one soooooooooo much.

[xyaqua]

this is incredibly personal, he is an accomplished pilot. this is an anthem into one's demise... he's opening his soul on this one.

Listen to _i dream of wires_ a strangely recurring theme among pilots' dreams. .

Numan is a God, of electronica and of flying.

[dstdvl]

one of his finest moments, yes, but during the instrumental parts, when he's not singing, he strides around the stage like he's going somewhere, but he's not, and he occasionally flails his limbs like he's dancing, but he can't, grinning like an idiot.

[fistft99]

What's your problem!!!

[noiseovshadow]

Hair,Hair do you mind thats my mum on the left..still this is a top tune..noiseovshadow

[Bergarita]

love Gary Numan. But what up with the hair?? lol Love you anyways man. peace

[noiseovshadow]

I Do not think it gets better than this,,NoiseovShadow

[FaceInTheRain]

Great song. Numan's music could still be beautiful back in 1980.

[1starryeyedkid]

I loved Gary Numan before he went all rock & roll..

[velocity1991]

anyone seen the video on marc almond slagging his warriors album off? search it and spam what a prick marc almond is, this a a great musician

[rhylmart]

Yeh you own Gany! Nothing beats your music!

[hodgietwo]

Hey i love this song, brings back memories.

[Walkbi]

Good memories of this track.

Gary, you still rule.

[jrmetmoi]

All those Moogs Gary used to use back in the day are so so warm sounding and squelchy and they just fill up a room!

It's about time Hollywood or somewhere uses Gary Numan circa 1978 - 1980 music in a movie soundtrack at some point!

[69goth6969]

amazing

[fstop77]

great song! Cheers mate!

[brcampbe]

I bought this album on a whim, not knowing what it was. When I heard the instrumental chorus of this tune, I had an epiphany. Honestly, it was the most sensational feeling I've ever had from a song.

[Julzy20032000]

@brcampbe The first Numan album I came across in a bargain bin at a mall in South Florida. I was about 12 years old. I really had no idea what I was buying but man...I am 35 now and I am still blown away by this mans sound!

[jrmetmoi]

@brcampbe That's why this song is one of my faves ever in the whole world.

[NickCato]

Thanks for posting this---one of his greatest songs for sure.

[numanfan40]

My favorite numan song....would love to have seen this concert

[tialeetull]

oooooh - this is such a cool version and such a great live performance...... i really, really like this song too.

[Telekon5]

Now that's what I call Romance....lol

[numan06]

It reminds me of the skin game

We used to stand around on corners

Saying 'well here we are again'

[mamatova]

I knew I had something when i had this album damit... it seemed like it was only a handfull of a few knew what the fuck or what was this that was cool.. I like how he doent ham this up at all and make it gay by trying to make it sound like "todays" music.. it's just like the record...

[ozzywarrior]

Great song

[metamatics]

True brilliance.

[MissParker0106]

Fabulous performance...thanks for uploading.

[whitefalcon]

Excellent performance. Can't take your eyes off him when he performs, as per usual.

[numanami]

Its a great version, its not as good as Wembley, blah blah blah..boring.

[dischordantbelief]

The original album version is superb. Sadly this half baked performance doesn't do the song justice. Awful.
