Seen gary last year in Newcastle. after 40 yrs still a brilliant performer. Keep going gary !

[geezerparadox]

This is one of the best songs ever!!! Ive seen him live and frankly Gary Numan is hands down perfect. His shows are full of energy, expression, and excellent musicianship. I always try to catch him when he comes to L.A. He is a must see

[tuneagent]

Very cool. See him live if you get the chance. His shows are always very powerful..

YES, this in the 70`s was weird space music AND we would stand have twisted singing AND I had this on 8-track tape, member those?
WHOA, I'm old.

His First Four LP's were Amazing ! From 'pUnK ' to 'Electronica' ! Those Records were 'Experimental' and produced most of his 'Hits' commercially, which is what most Artists strive for!
Gary never stops experimenting, that is one of his many many qualities! Some things work better than others, that is the case with all artists, he never rests on his laurels and just does a 'Greatest Hits 'Tour (maybe he would make more money doing so? ) He is so creative, still looks amazing, and is adored by 'US' fans! God Bless; Gary Numan, Tubeway Army, Dramatis ! etc

A million stars like our sun for every grain of sand. Where there are stars, there may be planets. Where there are planets, there may be music like this. Magic.

This was in Minneapolis I think - the day after he played Fine Line. Awesome gig. Met him in the restaurant next door pre-gig. Been a fan since the beginning and seen him live many, many times; 80’s, 90’s and beyond.

Anyone who likes Gary Numan but hasn't heard the rerecording of 'A Prayer For The Unborn' from 'Hybrid' you have to hear it. The chorus is a killer!
