Gary Numan - Are Friends Electric (Hope Bleeds DVD)

[MultimediaNetworks]

i wish i could see it live :J

[Unkn0wnumb3rs]

This song was way beyond its time. No-one saw anything like this coming, not even the New Age artists of that era. This will forever be one of the brightest candles on the path of electronic music (in my opinion) :D

[pildskadden]

Funky version! But prefer the albumversion, conservative as I am.

[jakehrizn]

amazing voice. stupid hair.

[DigitalliPix]

Was this recorded in London 2004???

[jrajesse]

Hear my cover of this song here: on.f b.m e / n m J 9 i w

[Gorrrillla5]

The Gary Numan of 1979 was unique, now as time moved on he still makes his new look his own that STILL no one else can duplicate.

[ThePinkfloyd1969]

i think only gary numan can make a bottle of water look cool on stage lool

[RevAndroid]

His voice has never changed. Awesome but strange.

[Gorette66]

His voice...it's still the same. His and Bernard Sumner's (New Order), they'll never age.

[dieCG]

in the years 79-81, you make a song that lasts for 30+ years then you come in here on youtube. then us talentless hacks will laugh at you.

[intheyears79to81]

Synths are pathetic here......he gets worse every year...once a true genius now just very very agerage.

[Marc7665]

@intheyears79to81 What kind of a dumbass are you? someone who cant understand pure awesomeness? you sir, are retarded or there is something VERY wrong with you! Numan is a Genious. Like you could write and perform something better!

[Marc7665]

@Marc7665 Correction; I misspelled... I meant Genius

[intheyears79to81]

@Marc7665 Your american so what the fuck do you know about music.......go back to country and western........i was there right at the start of Numans carreer, there at all the early live shows when he WAS a genius, now he's just a pub act. Get those bango's out of your ear and start to listen to the differences between the way he used to do it and the way he does now........havn't you got a little country to invade anyway, must be time soon you have started a war for at least a week now.

[Marc7665]

@intheyears79to81 HA! I rest my case. Obviously you don't know a damn thing about music. If you wanna be racist, you are more than welcome to come here and get your ass kicked. Personally I am not a fan of country. Numan is AWESOME... You on the other hand suck balls. You can't make anything better so SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH! By the way, get them dicks outta your mouth and make some fucking since!

[intheyears79to81]

@Marc7665 So im racist am i.....so hows that then...tell me your ethnicity and if im of a different race then you might have a case. And dont be so homophobic while were at it ya fucking agressive knob.

[Marc7665]

@intheyears79to81 I aint gotta tell u anything you gay mother fucker. Jesus fucking Christ you are a dumbass. I will say it again. You cant make ANYTHING better. Hell for that matter if you cant 'speak' clearly then i rdoubt you can sing or write music worth a shit. Anyways I do not talk to douches lovers of the same gender or complete dumbasses and you fit every one of those categories. So Semper Fi you wont be hearing form me again. dont know why it took me this long to realize all this

[garry795]

@intheyears79to81 I agree with you... not about what you said after this, I mean the fact he gets worse every year. Glad somebody's noticing.

[hellchild65]

@garry795 really? because it think his music has gotten MUCH better, compare it to the crap he made in the latter half of the 80's and early 90's especially. at least he still manages to stay fresh and be original and make music that matches his lyrics and personality, even if his music is more on the Dark Wave/Industrial area, it still is good

[garry795]

@hellchild65 Don't get me wrong, I REALLY admire him. His performances are still excellent and authentic, I just feel he has lost his image. I'm also disappointed that he just sings instead of playing an instrument. I would love to have seen one of his early performances, but seeing one of the current performances would be like watching any other solo artist...

[SchmedleyDoRight]

@garry795 Saw him in Los Angeles in 1980. Unimaginable. At the time, the term 'Asperger' was not well-known - but there was an element that I was aware of in his movement: his timing, and repetitions of certain sets of gestures, was definitely mathematical, as was his music. Completely UNIQUE and memorable, to this moment. We were all aware of how... challenging.. the notion of marketing him would be (not that we particularly cared) at the time. ZERO outlets for Independent music.Hail Internet.

[electronicballast]

Numans done it again!

IMO though the synth sounds like a crappy casio on "trumpet" voice

[NumanoidGirl]

Dammit, he's sexy!

[MyLittleHero95]

Wow, he still looks good. How old is he now?

[NuggetBlubber]

@MyLittleHero95 hes in his 50s

[Sambarre]

Very glad I looked into more of his music then just "Cars". 1-hit wonder my balls!

[Yannp]

@Sambarre don't use MTV for your source of music

[sizedoctor]

Singing and trying to open the bottle of water, he he

[chaosisgreat]

really stupid quistion, he's not preforming with the tubeway army is he? they look difrent o.o

[Marc7665]

@chaosisgreat  i believe that band fell apart around 1980 correct me if im wrong

[chaosisgreat]

@Marc7665 correct lol :) still very good :)

[Numaness]

@Marc7665 yep your wrong!

[Stigbool]

please come back to NYC Mr Numan

[dozeydevon]

Awesome! .. Just Awesome!

[Gonzoarch]

seen him a few times now and absolutely love him live.... Numan, Numan, Numan.

[sheltech12]

fffing HUGE sound . delightful .

[Pitee59]

This one's really better than the original :-)))

[ps3f1]

anazing live!!! even better than the original one!

[NuggetBlubber]

[drumbeer]

one of the best startup sounds :)

[brandonxj9]

[Marc7665]

@brandonxj9 tell me about it...

[NuggetBlubber]

@brandonxj9 gta vice city did for me

[ps3f1]

@brandonxj9 hahahahahaha me 2!!

[kevpk]

Ahead of his time, he was ridiculed by the few any loved by the many. his music sounds as good now, if not better, as it did back in the beginning.

[elmcmaru]

wow un hombre fumando un cigarrillo

jenial este video me fasina arriva gary numan

[mfsweb]

he's playbacking

[FantasioetSpip]

How can you be a positive atheist? there´s nothing positive about If there Is no creator anything goes there is no right or wrong exept what you feel In your heart

[Mr1SXM]

vocal sounds really good!

[digitalneil]

i was there that night at the accademy manchester, i have been a fan since first started, and what a fantastc time we had , still sounds brill, good one gary :-)

[Blackscorpion1963]

Sounding better than ever! Gary Numan and the Tubeway Army were waaaayyy ahead of their time, the sign of a very intelligent musician in my opinion. Cheers for uploading dashproductions it is greatly appreciated.

(New Zealand #1!)

[MajorJansen]

..My Gid ... this is so brilliant !

Imagine that he started before 1979 with this f***ing coll machine sound.

his Voice and performance is also magnificent.

Well well done - go on Gary. We love you and your boyzz :-)

[badamj2000]

Good on ya Gazza and all that sail in you. James Freud sends his regards:) Just kidding, I dont know him

[linus7106]

what a generic audience, just standing around. the only person dancing is Numan himself.

[badamj2000]

@linus7106 what a dumb n bitchy statement

[robemsue]

love numan so much he is god

[Harryisagod]

misterpaxton. Influencing each other is what artists do. And this is a great reult

[Harryisagod]

A knock out !!

[misterpaxton]

i can't believe how badly he's ripping off reznor

why can't he just do his own thing

[ElectroKnightBen]

@misterpaxton Nice troll fag

[JacobMorrisNinetyTwo]

@ElectroKnightBen I love how such an unintelligent comment can make it into the top comments section. Never underestimate stupidity in large numbers.

[freeman2228]

im trying to figure out what you mean.. i'll admit im a huge NIN fan, but i dont see any resemblence. i really like the new gary numan. he was great late 70s early 80s then digressed immensly. Ever since pure came out, he's been back and thank god. i think the new gary is wayyy better

[WinterTwWolf]

@misterpaxton

Ripping off Reznor? Are you fucking retarded, or just trolling?

[elmcmaru]

houhouhou good song of miusic

[mark2dj]

Le canzoni più belle rimangono stampate nella memoria. eccezionale !

[samueleuk]

Ho scoperto Gary Numan un mese fa e adesso e' uno dei miei artisti preferiti

[TheHoppr54]

Interesting that the second and fourth verse are switched around, took me awhile to figure it out...still great

[keypointist]

Needs a better drummer.

[digitaltat]

best artist I've ever seen live!

[garethac81]

Ugh...the live percussion is clunky as hell. Really mucks up the crispness of the original studio version.

[dickiedocker]

im with you there buddy sounds crap :(

[tomsin123]

Was so happy when I saw him. I believe everyone should

[MonsieurMajestic]

Cant get that song out of my head!

realy good live version

Thx!dash!

[JALisaac]

Absolute time less song...awesome version...

[paurac]

Anyone know where I can get this updated version as it rocks. Can't stop playing it :)

[icommunication]

why bother wearing such an atrocious rug? if you're bald, go with it.

[poogerangachang]

i was talking with his guitarist not long ago :D

[saiers]

Still performs and looks magnificent.

[qwertynacho123]

<3  .

[ireneshusband]

This lacks the clarity and contrasts of more recent and older performances of the song.

[classic7890]

Yup, this is a mess. This is what the original would sound like if played thru speakers that were torn and ripped.

[conzy6969]

10th june bristol 02 8pm jagged edge tour

[espimgardino]

Versão pesadona

[Sashthecat]

DONT FORGET US OLD NUMAN FANS!

.66.

[pdwhelan]

Saw him on 24th April too. Got a bit too drunk to remember much though. Think hes doing another tour this year, just a mini tour though. Will certainly be getting tickets.

[jeffus08]

Saw 'Numan!' O2 Sheff 'Sat 25th Apr'... awesome!!

[PactPrimeval]

Hope he comes back to Sheff soon.

[affectionatepunch]

Saw gary numan last night (24th april) at the academy in liverpool it was amazing! We are not lovers we are not romantics we are hear to serve you...

[xXNeuralDefektXx]

One of the best performances of this song ^^

[macskamks]

gahh! this is f@#kin' awesome!

[Sashthecat]

Great.

.66.

[edlizard]

Not my favourite arrangement, but still a remarkably powerful piece of music.

All should try to find same covered by An Pierle.

[stumper001]

Fantastic music.

[eheaney07]

class

[fjbutch]

cool...still got it dude

[deadsy34]

nothing wrong with updating sounds great!love technology

[tudanski]

Awesome - he has not aged at all

[kthem]

Even after 30 years Gary still has it!!!!

[emilfromswe]

A real masterpice, carved out of pain. That´s way it is fantastic. There isn´t such pain today.

[Lily1917]

still gorgeous,he still does it for me!!!!!!

[abrakabara]

Too bad he`s 50 now and still struggling to make a name for himself outside the uk. Sure he`s had a few Outside but he`s way better now. All I can say is that the music industry are fools to ignore him

[samnninty]

OMG ! i'm just in love with gary ! ! ! =]

[samnninty]

Man the bridge at 1:52 makes me tingle everytime :)

[ladiifliiyaya]

hot bass hot voice hot music!!!!!

[friendcalledfive]

Cool video went to this gig...Love Steve Harris giving it loads on guitar...Saw him at Oxford and the Indigo 02 in March this year..And am off to see him in Sept at the Indigo 02 again! WOOHOO :)

[boblef]

Numan is the best! You must see him live... if you can...

[goza12345]

Its true to say this guy gets better with age,probably the best live act around

[battyguy]

brings back memmories. wish he'd come to Canada..

[RestingRaven]

Not worth waiting for GN to come to us...I left Alaska last month to see him in the uk for 3 of the replicas 2008 concerts. Nuts, i know, but TOTALLY worth it to me. Had the best time.....

[hairygothbrother]

mam nd dad said he rocked at newcastle couple days ago so had to check him out......AND he's AWESOME!!

[THALIDO]

I saw him in Belfast last week. Great show. the venue wasnt the best, but he is the consumate professional, with a great stage presence.

[theorytest5]

saw him in norwich on sunday fucking awesome performance but the crowd was shit

[marcpitman]

First saw Numan 26 years ago in London - Awesome stuff, amazing performance. Seeing him in concert again March 2008 Brighton - can't wait - hope it will live up to my expectations!

[Passions8x10]

So how was it?

[marcpitman]

It was fantastic! He still has what it takes - the old tracks sounded even better, they seemed to be 'heavier' with more base. Gazzer even did 'Cars'. At the end of the concert his 2 little daughters came onto stage, wearing ear protecters of course. It was superb :)

[pault3168]

been a numan fan since the beginning. Now Iam 40 and still have respect for Mr. Numan. Keep on playing man....

[Smuffthemagicdragon]

Me too Paul. Can't wait to see him again at Southampton in March.

The man just keeps on going and getting better.

[monkeytennis1981]

i hate you guys in the US, you got Bowie over there

=p

[michaelsetiyawan]

dued you hate me

i kill you!!

[gbthecoach]

I hate you guys in the UK (OK just kidding) I wish I could con my wife into letting me fly there just to see the Replicas tour. All you that are going are surly going to love it.

[debman40]

Yeh me too, going to see him March 7th gonna be a good night can't wait!

[monkeytennis1981]

i got tickets for the Replicas tour! just to let you know how fucking excited i am!

Replicas by far my favourite album of his =D

the original nihilist in my humble opinion

[eporter0006]

Filmed at Manchester Academy on Sep 20, 2003, the day after his daughter Raven was born, this DVD features the full 20 song show.

Numan is GOD!

[1357skater]

[littlemissdefect]

I love love love love love this song soooo much!

Can't wait to see him on his new tour!

[huntedhalo]

[DocSommer]

saw this clip and ordered the dvd - I'm looking forward to see the entire show on big screen.

[Arioch11B]

What an unbelieveable performer he is...alot of " todays bands" could learn a thing or two from him on just how to play a live performance...amazing artist, singer/ song writer...keep rockin us Gary

[20756163]

Man, Gary Numan - Is a Legend

Here in Venezuela are many Numanoids, we want to see Gary, a pioneer in every aspect of Electro music

[johnvile]

wow

updated a little and it still rocks.

The first band i was ever in covered this.

theres a bass bit in it I used to detest (I couldn't F*&^ing play it)

[debman40]

This tour celebrated 25 yrs of Numan music can u believe it? Made me feel old!Think he also announced he had just become a father at this gig if my ageing memory is correct.Love it thanks.

[UpTheShakers]

i'm in that crowd somewhere. this was an awesome gig. did some oldies - films, down in the park but this one's the pick of the bunch for me.

[koloft07]

I never tire of listening to this, it's just brilliant! I wish Garry will write more music like this...

[schitt4brains]

GARY: If what the wizard said to the tinman is true, then you are truly blessed.

"A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others".

[abrakabara]

We need an alien invasion Gary please visit America. Gary I live in Las Vegas, Area 51 is not far from here you could visit friends from the old world.

[UthurPendragon]

This is way too cool. Changed my life when i first got hold of it back '79. Dam good year

[jmedia1]

Yep; exactly the same with me;-)

[koloft07]

Gary Numan is a god (probably in touch with aliens!)!

[jonnieboz14]

ace !!!!

start of electronic music for me - forerunner of a lot of good stuff - kraftwerk, bjork, goldfrapp & way to many others to mention

[Berserker137]

Immortal track!!! Love you forever, Gary!

[MrPSGifford]

Incredible-

[jaynee66]

[mobileguru2k6]

the nfs carbon soundtrack had mecurious so now i know who he is

[PsychoticRelapse]

*Shivering* wow..thank you so much Utube & dashproductions for submitting this. From the age of 14 and on through the 80's GN had tapped into an area within my brain & helped my psychological turmoil by releasing many thoughts, dreams, love, energy & questions. I've always been the 'weird kid' in school from as long as I can remember. It didn't matter as I always went home and played my GN albums (LP vinyl) while laying on my bed. Know one had ever seen me until I started to listen to GN.

[qiflow88]

yeahhh great...

i never forget the 80`s...

and he is alive in 2006...

a brother in a way...

psychic greetings to all GN fans...

Gary

[drunkenpopeca]

Magnificent.

[susancatton]

Brilliant!!!!
