@BarterIrving Funny. Ponies got me interested in this song, but once I realized it was Numan, I know it would be good sans ponies. Numan has done some great things. But I guess if you want to get technical, I wouldn't have found this song was it not for ponies. And it's a genius song.
God this album is brilliant! Love Berserker as well as all other Numan albums! Being only 20 and this album being around 25 years old.. kinda wierd for me to actually like this music but I was born in the wrong decade! Parents and sister think im odd. But really, this beats anything today. Always play it loud! Awesome album!
His best song of all time? AFE is still his best of all time, it's his anthem for chist's sake, and there are so many others all vying for that acclaim. All his albums have their unique style during his different pop phases. If you like the early futuristic stuff, then Telekon rules, Dance is an acquired taste of sombre Jazz songs while I. Assassin is a brilliant example of funk. But for pure creative genius, "HUMAN" is an amazing collection of atmospheric music scores - Numan at his very best!

i wished that i had these sort of sounds on my keyboard and i want to do this song with my keyboard but i don't know which keys to press and i need that drumming sound aswell
@thismachinebreakdown both were really good imo, but yeah Berzerker was better. i wish he played some music off of his stuff from Dance-The Fury nowdays as well as classic and new stuff, i can see forgetting about a number of 80's and early 90's material, but the stuff from the early and middle parts like this and I Assassin were pretty good imo.
Blade Runner was awesome movie, as far as Iron maiden using the Blade Runner shit on Somewhere in Time, it was more fitting than this song, but Numan did a great job with it. Personally I take this over somewhere in Time. Maiden's albums after Powerslave were starting to get too progressive, like every song having to be over 7 minutes.
The best opening to a show. saw Numan back on the Exhibiton tour and this of course was the opening tune. Loved it, and still listen to it to this day.
I prefer this extended mix over the regular version.
Have people forgotton that Replicas was based on Bladerunner.... Replicants ect.. He got his inispiration for the album with that film.. I LOVE THE FURY... hated the image but love the album. BUT THEN AGAIN... I LOVE HIM SO IM BIAS.!
He changes his style alot in his music. as much as people say this record sucks, I thought it was really good, not as good as Pleasure Principle but it's still enjoyable
People cry too much about this record, and it's a masterpiece. One of the best synth pop albums ever. "oh Gary never was Synth pop wah wah wah" he is the one who started Synth pop! The PLeasure Principle was synth pop!
@Nothingseverperfect I tend to agree with you, it was a good album and a bit ahead of its time in 1985. I remember how artists like Arcadia and Thomas Dolby were experimenting with sounds that appeared on The Fury. Miricles is a depressing track but this album is overlooked a bit. Then again time has changed that.
This was a good era, most people hated this era of Numan records but it was one of the best. You had many good tracks back then, Miracles, My Breathing, Berserker, This Is Love.
Could you share the album artwork please? I can't find it anywhere. Thanks

Kraftwerk invented synth-pop, Numan popularized it. He wasen't the only one doing it but he made it more worldwide.

A disease, never again
I don't like this, new anger,
These young boys, just make me laugh
This picture, I'm so nervous,
The DJ, says 'who are you?'
Look at me, I'm shaking,
I don't know if I can move
