I have always loved this song.
Pity the album wasn't more of a hit,its got some great tracks on it.

i have to say its one of my fave tracks. i wish they would tell us which bassist played which track on this. my guess is this was Martin Elliott, but I might be wrong. I played bass at the time so loved playing along to tracks from this era, which I suppose makes me biased. a lot of the jazz funk influenced stuff at the time was awful, slickly produced rubbish, whereas Numan managed to keep it credible, dark and forboding. Only now are people giving this album the credit it deserves.

The slap bass kicks serious ass
This is one of his best albums and a fucking cool as song. I love Numan.

Best song ever. Ok not really, but I like it, I really do. I can't stand the slap bass, but, hey !, IT'S GARY FUCKING NUMAN !!!!! He's the only one who can use slap bass and stay elegant.

@cabbage190569 His album 'Hybrid' does update some of his older stuff.

Numan was a pioneer.
Pity he did that 80's thing and ditched his beliefs for slap bass and guitar mince.

Followed the lad since the start. He's always wanted to get 'darker' and has over the years because that is what he wanted. He only did 'Are Friends' because at the time it was do it or get lost! Listen to the advert of the time that he did for Lee Cooper jeans! He has not change fundimentally listen to all his albums I'll bet he could do a darker 'are friends electric'
