Gary Numan -I dream of wires Cover (robert Palmer)

[andyr1313]

Great, great song- original or cover...

[schmads]

Garys 'Freehand' synth in this track blew me away when it first came out...and always will...superb master of the Moog!... I bow to him.....

[Babaziba]

Loved the cover. The two of them also co-wrote a great song, "Style Kills", on Robert's "Maybe It's Live" album. Two of my favorite artists together. Works for me.

robert was a fan of gary's & invited him to write & record with him, robert ended up covering this & 'me i disconnect from you' both written by gary, the cover never beats the original but this is good all the same, robert was a lovely guy with a great musical career, he is missed

[bull1ttproof]

No cover version is ever better than an original,you would never have a cover if it wasnt for the original, the song wouldnt have existed.

[fuckamericanidiot]

@bull1ttproof doesn't make it better by default that's ridiculous, you can build on songs or try a more interesting approach, so narrow-minded

[bull1ttproof]

@fuckamericanidiot Exactly you can build on a song thats been created already so therefore full credit would always be to the original version, i.e without the original version the different version wouldnt exist as i said already ! logic not narrow minded ! e.g Disturbs version of LAND OF CONFUSION is better than phil colins but wouldnt have existed without it ! get it now ?

[fuckamericanidiot]

@bull1ttproof duhhhh....sorry boss

[buubaby]

a good cover shame Robert died in 2003 god bless him and he and gary were really good friends

[stuart38]

robert palmer's version sounds like a piss-take that found fans.lol.

[flapshot]

I'm surprised at how good this is, I was expecting a pile of crap....

Surprised at some of you for preferring this to the original though.Maybe Gary's vocal's are too much to take for the great unwashed :-p

[slvideo1]

Oh yeah...Numan is a genious and Robert made a great version, i agree is almost better that the original. we love u Robert

[weegerri1sm]

Robert Palmer doing Numan soooo well?

Who'd have thunk it? o.o

[replicas79]

brilliant!

[scooptdoo]

nice version.didnt screw it up.i prefere garys origonal version though!

[eb32029]

Thanx Linda for reminding !

Love it

[quaestor1968]

This is one of the rare occasions where a cover bests the original. Who mixed this? It's mind blowing.

The whole song transcends its origins.

[miamigo316]

[Sashthecat]

I love this version. Gary plays the keyboards on this track along with paul gardner on bass. LOVE IT. And we must not forget robert palmer. RIP.

I always liked this cover of this song. Poor Robert, gone way too soon.
