Gary Numan interview

[@Danthehorse]

Nice, genuine guy, looks people right in the eye. After all the wilderness years where he kept plugging away making albums its nice to see him gaining a new appreciation from people - and also to enjoy it again!

[@persephone6896]

Danthehorse agreed though it’s funny you say that « about looking people right in the eye » because he has Asperger’s syndrome and it’s. Social convention that aspies generally hâte

[@TheGreatAlan75]

Man , he is so likeable. I absolutely love his work, the first 3 solo albums are so great.

[@charlieimago7200]

he's more beautiful now than ever before.....damn

[@AdelaTomankova]

At first I thought you said dreadful not beautiful so I thought "hey he's not- oh."

[@scottlebrun6782]

Gary Numan is such a down to Earth wonderful person with a shitload of talent.

[@gunter_dierickx]

Gary is one of the most nicest guys i've ever met.

[@stevenhoog1]

He’s the kindest person I’ve never met. And he’s not strange bizarre weird or talks about anything cosmic it’s kind and simple and easy going.

[@oliverrickard9970]

Yet charges 100 quid to meet him

[@jasonblake924]

I've watch lots of interview s with Gary over the last few months, he's just comes across as such a genuine down to Earth guy.

[@bendring]

I love how at the start he's just looking around like 'where the hell am I?'

[@morningcoffeecat2271]

It is a pretty odd place to be interviewed

[@alisonkovacs9871]

Gorgeous Gary is so cute the way he looks around where he is sitting

[@turkeygrump]

This is the warmest I've ever seen him in an interview...this was great. He seemed much more at ease than the TV interviews I've seen!

[@baswelo]

MY first album was pleasure principle back in 79.I love the way he's come back with credibility appealing to a whole new audience,not many manage it,and he's not based in nostalgia.

[@patthewoodboy]

last album was his best ever and I'm 60 :-)

[@SuperBully24]

wow . what a brilliant bloke ! down to earth !

[@micheletotton9342]

Gorgeous man

[@Phoenix85006]

Michele Totton exactly what I was thinking.

[@almthomson]

Thanks to this guy I still play music live and don't waste a lifetime of classical training. This is one of the best interviews I've seen in the last couple of years - thanks

[@butterbagboy]

Good interview, he comes across very wise, intelligent, and well spoken.

[@Casious_Productions]

One of the most humble artists i know..still got his feets on the ground and very down to earth...another one is Martin Gore in DM :-)

[@BubbaZen10]

"I just want to love what i do on a day to day basis" Me too Gary. Very well said.

[@TheJimmy71]

what a great guy,love his music.

[@SuperDonnaMO]

2020 and Numan has reinvented himself many times since this interview!

[@markh4705]

Luv ya Gazza. Nice to see you always wearing your wedding ring too!

[@shonuff6221]

I really love his humble personality...

[@alisonkovacs9871]

Gorgeous Gary thanks so much for everything you do and for being you

[@silversynth]

I always thought his voice is pretty near perfect for Electronic music of all types.

[@brianp8586]

silversynth You know something, you're right. His voice is the perfect electronic music voice. Thanks for mentioning that.

[@P8290970]

[@enoz.j3506]

Pleasure Principle was the first album i bought in 1979,it's just a superb sounding, clever & unique album,& was far ahead of its time.Understand the new software & sounds keeping one interested,its what keeps me composing.

[@morphkwak]

Great album splinter the man is genius!

[@AudiophileTubes]

Great, 'down to earth' artist!

[@distortech2]

I love this guy.

[@RedUncle]

I bought Splinter a couple days ago... it's so awesome! I really love it

[@timothy5512]

I like the way he's scanning all the records on the shelves...

[@calabiyou]

Great Numan gig two nights ago melb 30/5 just awesome. best concert I've seen in yearssssss.

[@PaulMichaelR]

I love this guy it's thanks to him I got into music I heard his album tube way army pre keyboards punk band I bought a guitar and learnt every track by ear , still play it now great guy.

[@alisonkovacs9871]

Love his laugh too

[@nigelcarren]

Ultimate fantasy, on a quest for interesting vinyl, I find not only a Gary Numan album but an actual Gary Numan! Great bloke, whom I dream to make some armour for one day. So Gary, if you want something crazy for your next music vid, you know where I am. Thank you and keep up the great work.

[@MrSlipstreem]

I'm so glad for Gary that he's learned to embrace the awesomeness that was 'The Pleasure Principle' album. Quirky? It was absolutely groundbreaking for its time! I played my first vinyl copy, quite literally, to death. Thank goodness it came out on CD as even I can't wear one of those out! And by the way, the 'Splinter' album is great! :)

[@shredguitarob]

I think, the older he gets, the more he looks like a young Frank Sinatra.

[@scottlebrun6782]

I see it

[@persephone6896]

He has a nice personality, he’s likeable

[@vegastiki]

this was the legendary music library at KCRW. Gary enjoyed all the records.

[@TheGuitarver]

It was different when it came out for sure. Nobody in the business knew what to do with it but those who were just listeners who bought the albums loved it. It took you right into that Phillip K. Dick / Blade Runner Scary Numan space. I'm a guitar head and loved it :-)

[@falconwing1]

really good!

[@BossaNossa1]

Interesting set for an interview, in between albums, a bit claus·tro·pho·bic...

[@Casious_Productions]

Enjoyed this very much...thanx :-D

[@RaGeTheMaGnificent]

Gary just signed on to be the 4th member of Depeche Mode! Pass it the news!

[@TheGreatAlan75]

Splinter is a great album. It IS commercial in a sense. LOVE HURT BLEED was made for radio or a movie soundtrack . It is heavy and catchy. Glad to hear he likes PP again!! It is just too cool to not like. I love replicas and Telekon also. It just seems that Pleasure principal is a bit more cohesive maybe. The songs go together very well. They are fairly short and similar in sound . I just realized I view this album the way I view dark side of the moon. The cohesiveness is just amazing . I can't really separate the songs (like on a compilation mix tape) without feeling wrong. Those songs belong together. Like dark side

[@maxsimgue9764]

Whatcha doin Gary? Jus readin'... words.

[@BubbaZen10]

It's funny how, back when he first came out, i thought he was just this prissy little dude, pretending to be an alien and whatnot. (of questionable sexuality) Turns out, Gary is is actually just a right ok bloke, who is not what you may have thought he was.

[@alanlloyd6322]

gary is awesome. he took inspiration from trent reznor and is now doing trent's style of music....BETTER than trent

[@BossaNossa1]

I'd like to bounce a thought out to all of you, Gary uses the term "Geeky" to describe his "Hobby" of computer/digital software... O.k. so I feel that it just isn't applicable to say it or even use that way any longer. Why? Well, I do remember 30 years ago anyone spending time near a computer was labeled or called a Geek. So, here we are 2015 can we then say that a billion and accounting people on this planet with their faces and necks bent down looking at and manipulating and swiping their finger fingers across their touch screens Geeks!? to conclude the term Geek is dead. Gary uses it as a negative in his conversation it's no longer a negative..., it's a hobby/life (for some who choose to connect to the "grid" 24-7)

[@varanid9]

Shut up, geek.

[@BossaNossa1]

Did you hear how he mentions "Kraftwerky"? So, Kraftwerk were already performing before him right? How much time before Gary started?

[@fuckamericanidiot]

+BossaNossa1 Kraftwerk formed in 69/70 as a very experimental very minimalist electronic/real instrument band that really started to shape their sound in the mid 70s once they went completely electronic

[@fuckamericanidiot]

+BossaNossa1 Radioactivity :)

I love this guy.
