Gary Numan - Remember I Was Vapour

Track 9 of Telekon

There's nothing here but us
There's nothing here but us

Remember, I was vapour
Remember, I was just like you
Remember, I was liquid
Remember, I was someone too

Remember, I need others
Remember, I need oxygen
Remember, I need lovers
Remember, I need to forget

Remember, I was vapour
Remember, I was just like you
Remember, I was liquid
Remember, I was someone too

Remember, I am human
Remember, I feel just like you
Remember, I had reasons
Remember, I had friends like you

Remember, I grow tired
Remember, I could end all this
Remember, I have memories
Remember, I need to forget

I'm glad others have noticed the missing synth part - I honestly thought my headphones were on the blink when I listened to my Telekon cd!! A real shame it being left out on the cd, WHYYYY????I ask. Still, I have the vinyl from the year so can still wallow in the original version. Lovely song with many thought provoking effects!!!!

[GaryNumanAlbums]

I don't know wy it was cut from the cd, but I think I have the original vinyl mix somewere, if I still have it I'll upload it soon

[SweetLovelyBunny]

@DimensionsofChange after

[DimensionsofChange]

@SweetLovelyBunny Was this before or after The pleasure principle?

[SweetLovelyBunny]

@DimensionsofChange you wouldn't recall it, you weren't alive yet... :)

[DimensionsofChange]

@SweetLovelyBunny I don't recall being vapor or vapour for that matter.  In the States it's spelled with out a u.

[SweetLovelyBunny]

@DimensionsofChange umm it is spelled with a u... and everyone was once vapour... its true.

[machman36]

Classic track, Numan was ahead of his time!

[rosepetal282]

GARY CAN DO NO WRONG...f...ing fantastic!

[ecclefech]

All - Remember I was vapour with the original mix is on the compilation CD - Exposure ( Jagged Halo Label) No joy Circuit though ...

[prokesuk]

There are definitely some variations out there with Telekon, most noticeable on Vapour and the Joy Circuit.

[DimensionsofChange]

Gary I don't remember you being vapor. I also don't remember it being spelled with a u. You Brits :)

[junkieinformant]

Only version I have with the added synth part is on the original 1987 pressing of the album on CD.

Not sure if it's on the Asylum version or on the 1993 reissue.

Song sounds so empty without it.

Odd no 30th re issue of Telekon after Replicas and Pleasure Principle got their treatments.

Only 6000 views? You gotta` be kidding me! :( ...

@paradoxstate truly the downfall of Gary Numan the Great, but we still have such a library of his good stuff to include Tubeway Army!!!

[paradoxstate]

this album has such an ethereal beauty about it, i dont care what anyone says, after this it went down hill, the last truely great numan album. this was always going to be a hard act to follow, dance and i assassin, while good, dont reach anywhere near the same heights; ok i'll rephrase, after i assassin it was all down hill, and i agree with those who say he relies way to much on ade (who is a good musician, but the other chap i dont know much about)

i'm really not a fan of his newer stuff.

[SitThisOneOut]

Goose bumps, anyone?

[6547811]
