 I give 4/5 just because I never thought it was really one of Numan's strong songs. That whole "when you gonna come when you gonna come when you gonna come" thing just idk, seems too comical for the serious tune played here. I do say it is better than the original just because tim gets rid of that awful silly sounding slap bass that Numan use to have in a few of his 80's tunes.

@rockcityaudio

Nope, his voice fits the bill , if not better. Of course it's not like Numan's voice, but if you listen closely to it Tim's voice has that same robotic texture to it, just a little deeper octave too. It's definetly good on his own. If you ask me I'm just hopeing Tim picks out a few of my favorite Numan tunes to cover next :)
