I would imagine that Lukenuman is a hideous looking freak who who doesn't like the look of his reflection so he hides behind a keyboard and picks on other people.
Yes i probably am hideous, maybe if you are at the London or Brighton "Replicas shows" you will see for yourself. Would be nice to meet up with you lot....im nice really, lol.
This is one of the coolest songs ever. And who are you people trying to tell him how to play his OWN song! Let's see you come up with something even .0000009898989% as good! What loosers and creeps some of you are, trying to tell an artist how to play their own song! It's his, not yours, who the f*ck do you think you are anyway? Seriously, "who are you?" *crickets*
great sound quality! i can hear myself "woooooo" after Gary sings 'and they seemed to think that i looked that way'. cheers for taking the time to upload.
gary numan's music is great love the new versions of his songs!its good to hear new takes not hearing the same version,it may not be better to some but i never listened or not listen to music cause someone said it was good or bad. music is to the soul of the individual!!!
Just to clarify my response. I like the new material and I'm always happy to see Gary trying to bring up to speed some older songs. I enjoy the fact that the same songs can sound quite different from one live album to another. Of course, some renditions just happen to be better than others. I can't help but feel that these nostalgia tours he's doing (and which he said he would never do) are catering to those who are living in the past.
LemonKid, there's nothing wrong with having your own opinion, and I agree with some of what you said. The problem is the NLB (No-Life Bitcher) who clutters up message boards with the same old Numan-hating insults over and over again. As far as I can tell, it's just one person using multiple screen names. But he's all over YouTube and the Numan message boards. No-one pays him much attention anymore, so he'll soon have to start hating someone else.
Thanks Marcello, I'm glad to hear it. I know there are fans out there who refuse to question or critize Numan in any way or form (and they still believe Machine and Soul is a Masterpiece ;-))I'm a huge Numan fan but I don't blindly endorse anything he does. On the subject of NLBs, some of them believe that they are entitled to something, as though Gary owes them for being a fan in the first place. I guess they've got nothing much else to hang on to.
All I can say is FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sod off all you sad all Numanoids who want to stick Gary in the past and have him be a 1 album wonder. He can span decades with ease. Deal with it.
Can anyone tell me how big of a venue this is? In truth, it does look no bigger than a pub but maybe that's because of the camera angle. It's an alright version but I have to agree that it's hard to top the Paris version of 1979 at Le Palace. That version is simply brilliant.
Thanks for posting this. I couldn't get back to the UK for this mini tour, so it's great to see some of the set on here. I'll be back in December for the Replicas tour. Can't wait. Couldn't disagree more with lukenuman. Replicas these days is an absolute powerhouse of a song. Surpasses the album version and the live version you link to by a country mile. In my opinion. Please don't slag the guy off. He's had enough grief in his career without supposed former fans having a go. Thanks!
Lukenuman can say whatever the hell he wants. He doesn't like the current version of Replicas, big deal, this is the big wide world, people have the ability to make their own minds up. I couldn't disagree with you more when you say "it's an absolute powerhouse of a song".
I totally agree with you, spain8f, but there's no point in discussing anything with a Numanhater. They've devoted their entire lives to slagging him off. For every positive comment about Numan, they'll post three negative comments. Unfortunately, they've got nothing better to do.
If you want to hear this as it SHOULD be played then follow this link. As ive said before Numan has gone from Superstar Genius to no more than a pub act.
This is how it should sound, when he had a proper band behind him.
the usual W's then.....youtube . com/watch?v=9TA5UUJIXeU
Was just to the right of the this shot. Fantastic show, great set and I love this version AND the original of Replicas. Gary's still in top form. Thanks for making the effort to put this up!
Completly ruined another classic. This new way of playing it just about sums him up these days. Totally pathetic compared to how is should be played and to how it was played live in 1979. This just sounds like apub act. I hope he sticks to the proper way of doing it when he does his "Replicas" shows later this year but i wont hold my breath.
