Gary Numan - Berserker (TOTP 1984)

[@robrobinson7052]

Ced was a brilliant drummer. His beats were so memorable and original.

[@DarylKent-z8m]

Visually and musically ahead of the game and still is now....LEGEND....

[@alexfletcher5192]

This is a vastly underrated sound. Even now. Don't pretend that the 1980s goliaths celebrated today would have happened without him.

[@georgegiapitzis8204]

Cedric Sharpley was in total beast mode on this

[@PaulDenman]

Such an important stage in Numan's career. He had to fight at the time, and his commitment shines through. Wonderfully eccentric, uniquely unreal. A true legend 💙

[@xlr82u]

Pleasure Principle and Berserker are 2 of my favourite Gary Numan albums. Dark, strangely uplifting and utterly brilliant music. Still can't decide which of the two I like best

[@danieldelphi]

As a Gen Z numanoid it’s very upsetting his discography from 84-87 is off streaming platforms. It’s also lonely being a gen z numanoid lol

[@Telekoner]

​@@danieldelphiI can relate lol

[@Telekoner]

​@danieldelphi btw most of his 84-87 are on now (highlights being berserker, the fury, strange charm and outland) :)

[@nutster9000]

Impossible to decide, I would have to say.

[@HorseLoveTV]

@@danieldelphi Wow, I had no idea there were other Gen Z numanoids. Glad to see that we exist!

[@zanthosse]

LOVE THE BROODING DARK SYNTHS HERE. A GREAT TALENT.

[@JAYMES2568]

I last saw Numan in 1984 berserker tour. Promised myself I’ll see again soon. Awesome stage show

[@CraigBelding]

Excellent song love the drumming

[@RS250Squid]

I first got into Gary Numan about 20 years ago when I borrowed Hybrid from my neighbour. I followed his music forward through the years, but only recently did I think to follow it backwards too. Turns out I missed a lot of awesomeness. This is one of my favourites.

[@JohnLloydDavis]

This period of Numan reminds me of Japan meets Visage. Lots of sampling and electronic drums.

[@MrTamiya89]

I Like Gary Numan's Image, just Awesome

[@elaineellis5459]

Have seen Gary Numan live several times and he is always brilliant. Have been a massive fan since I was about eleven. I grew up with this music, and the associated scene. Just as good to listen to now as it ever was.

[@cityportoftraps8996]

i'm forever playing little snippets of his material. he is a genius... no question... but his new 'mad-max' stuff is disappointing. i'm subscribing to your channel, in the hope you put up some playlist's of your music tastes... ❤

[@juniberserker]

Honestly one of his best songs. Album inspired by username. So happy I still love him after my hyperfixation

[@victorrodriguez5765]

[@julianguffogg]

The album is good too.

[@IamaNumanoid-km5jq]

Gives me shivers!! I love it!

[@chrisg2533]

Love this played it to death back in the day . Would love to hear it live sometime 🤞

[@DepthPerspective]

That’s my mum on backing. Vocals 😂😙my🍑

[@JustAGameShow]

I have this on original 7" vinyl record.. One of my first Gary Numan records I bought.. One of my favourites too.

[@ameliawagus6248]

Brilliant as always, Cedric looks amazing in all white.

[@MattyMonsterguy1941]

Always crank the volume every time they play it on FirstWave

[@nickpavia9021]

You kind of need to. I've always thought the Berserker album was mixed a bit too quietly, unfortunately.

[@skyhawk747]

What an insane choice for a single.

[@mexicanson]

Damn! Gary Numan looks so cool! I wish I could pull off that look!

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

loved this image

[@chrislincoln7867]

Awesome

[@monicagn2087]

GRACIAS!!! 💙👍

[@regretto]

This song is a masterpiece that could have been even better than it actually is. Incredible arrangement, deep lyrics, huge stage presence. This is like a proto-industrial or something, I don't know. Still, Berserker period is incredible, even though the respective album is uneven. Cheers from Russia, fellow Numanoinds! I hope your western governments will stop sponsoring murdering my brothers (Russian AND Ukrainian) soon enough. Sorry for being political, I'm just drunk. At 6 o'clock I felt so alone... please understand, will you:)

[@tristanyoung1247]

This is hilarious😂

[@fernandocolexo1033]

Pino palladino bassplayer

[@oneill1872]

It’s Andy Coughlan. Another great bassist, but not Pino.

[@outpost31737]

This was the beginning of Numan's decline. The single only reached 32, Numan blamed Radio 1 which is just a massive cop out. The music and image became a big turn off as far as the public were concerned. Personally I love the Berserker image and album.
