It's funny how Ric Ocasek, of the Cars, didn't write a song called, 'Gary Numan'. Gary hit #9 in Billboard, 6-7-80. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! Have a blessed week!
This song freaked me out when it first came out. I was about in 6th grade....5:30 in the morning, the clock radio would go off. And the dreamy "Cars" would wake me. This was trippy. And also "Let's Dance, let's shout....Shake your body down to the ground" (Michael Jackson). My 2 faves.
Great track, just loved it way back then, and amazing to hear it again.
Like how the video showed all the keyboard players "playing" the individul parts on the PolyMoog keyboards too @ 1:50 (tho' pretty sure it wasn't Polymoogs in the actual recording, anyone know ? )
GTA vice city had some of the best tunes and because of it I have been listening to 80's music since I was 10 and i'm still listening & loving 80's music at 19 =D
you know how when you think about stereotypes n shit.. lol this is exactly what comes to mine hahaha. but this my shit hahahaha my dude was singing the shit outta that in that outfit!!
As I've tried to tell people...that illuminated pyramid is a really a time machine made by Nikola Tesla, but they just won't believe me, Gary is from the future...
@FingerboardPr0 Yea I remember it being in one of those games to. It was at the same time virtua fighter, and dead or alive game for dreamcast was out. So now you know the song and that it was a dreamcast game.Its Gran Turismo 2. Damn I am fast.lol
Every time I hear this song I can almost see Kate from the B-52's dancing to this song.... like the way she danced in The Love Shack! Love that red hair!
I f***in' loved this back then. I was gutted when The Police kept it at No2. I remeber buying the single when we were along in Rhyl for the weekend and I couldn't wait to get home and play it. Not too sure about the 'cum' face at 2.44 - but what the heh. That's some avantgarde 5hit right there.
Surprised there are only about 400 dislikes. When he broke out, I used to play Gary Numan in my car, and everybody told me I was nuts. Of course I did play it awfully loud.
@BarnyDW you're just mad because you will never be as successful, talented, or handsome as gary numan. yeah i said handsome, i'm not gay but i'll give credit where credit is due.
its funny the fact that gary looks a litle bit similar to sheldon cooper , and both persons, i mean the character and the singer, are suffering of aspergers sindrom.
Dont know why he left Tubeway Army, another of his classic tunes "Are friends electric" ahead of his time, shame he turned into a bit of a weirdo, but then he his still big in Germany...
Oh my! The 80's music is so cool and it has something really special. I can't even explain it but I guess the uniqueness comes from the sound or the form. I love it. Thank to GTA: Vice City. When I hear this song, it always reminds me of how cool living must have been cool in 80's!
@Eidi18 This song is from 1979. But to be fair, it didn't become mainstream until 1980, so it's kind of both a 70s song and an 80s song at the same time.
@MrRileythekid Bowie among others including myself. You guys EVER go out and play, think create just out in the yard or lawn as it were? Comment from 41 minutes ago is title of video game. Sad this is, no actual comment, just straight post a video title? I would ask of nogopil, Do you speak a human language? Already know the answer.."HUH?"
none of the music that is popular today comes close to how great this song is
