[@555tg]

Gary has stayed Humble all His Career but he's definitely worthy of the recognition he now receives . his music stands out among many and continues to . Great Interview Martyn .

[@Steveoaudioandstuff]

He's older than Gary Oldman. Seriously though - I'm so pleased to discover these conversations with my teen heroes. Thank you Martyn for bringing these to us.

Numan League

[@spectraldominance]

Check out Martyns eyes at 27:00. They look weird with that reflection on his glasses 😂.

[@mathumphreys]

Great interview.

[@WilliamjameswestWEST]

Gary ...was a big Fireball X.L.5....fan.

[@peternagy-im4be]

First song I ever heard was 'Are friends electric?' 1979 from someone's house.

[@Mark-td5ux]

❤❤❤you Gary and Martyn.

[@Mark-td5ux]

Giants of Synth...

[@PatrickHennessy-ky9xt]

Didn't do a lot of research into Numan's career did he? Where did Are Friends Electric get to in the charts??

[@CelticStone]

thank you

And that is why Gary is not a commercial airline pilot. Instead of spending the time available going through the checklists to restart engines etc as professionals are trained to, he's busy thinking about murdering his fellow colleagues in peril with a penknife. If I ever have the pleasure of meeting Mr.Numan I will make sure I know where the exit is. Hopefully if there is no imminent threat of death, I should be safe, but I might ask to frisk his pockets for sharp objects just to be safe. Loved the chat - I certainly learnt a lot!

[@shirleyatkinson8031]

Hi .❤ I had a dream last week that I was on a night out drinking with Gary and he asked me what did I think about his latest music and concerts . I said to him your music is amazing . ❤ Martyn I love those classical music compositions you made with Sheffield University strings , this makes me wonder what you would add to a mezzo singing voice with your electronic musical mind ? Mm how interesting i wonder how you would make such a voice sound mmm

[@COURTESAN_BAND_UK]

( note to self ),.. dont go on a 2 seater plane with Gary Numan,..

[@Mark-td5ux]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@ManNoName-c9u]

Brilliant!

[@WilliamjameswestWEST]

Alway,s.....thought he should be in a sifi..film.

[@outpost31737]

10M records from 79-82. That is nothing compared to his peers. Numan's a niche artist.

[@electronicallyyours3806]

Not niche at all

[@faradayfelix]

So what? He's still doing it and pulling in decent crowds year on year. If record sales are the absolute measure of an artiste, Leona Lewis must get you excited.

[@ManNoName-c9u]

I'm a little unsure who you consider Gary Numan's peers are to compare: Michael Jackson, Madonna, Rhianna......Ed Sheeran?????? Sheesh.

[@Mario_DiSanto]

What an out of touch comment. He only sold TEN MILLION records in a span of three years....give me a break. Who cares anyway? Plenty of famous artists aren't high record sellers.

[@emp12345]

I saw Numan in Manchester 2006, he's was trying to sound more darker and it wasn't a bad gig,but very upbeat tempo metal sound, he was seemed to get is wife and daughters involved, remarkable Guy who dealt with alot of personal problems beat the critics in is mission of success ​@Scratiznutz
