I have been avoiding this for awhile because once I start watching too much Gary Numan stuff I start getting so obsessed I don't want to do anything else or live in real life anymore. It's just so much better in Numanland. ha ha ha

Gary was always underrated for the first 20yrs until we catch up. I remember buying this album at 16yrs old when it first came out, never looked back. This album changed my life, I am 58 today all I can say is thank you Gary!

[@Mike-iz9tq]

Same here!!!

[@hirepimike]

Indeed. Regarded as a freak then. He was way ahead of his time.

[@ludwikmiszta6830]

@@hirepimike and still he is!

[@Southpoint2019]

And to think of how old Gary numan was when you were 16 and he’s still going and sound great. David Bowie meets kraftwork

[@796andy2]

61 and still listening to the sound of metal

[@MrTimgarlick]

WTF!!! How has he managed to keep such amazing vocal? What an absolute legend. My Dad met him at a flying club at North Weald (I think) he said he was absolutely charming. They simply don’t make ‘em like that anymore

[@teecee9113]

I agree about the vocals. I am blown away by how good he sounds. Most singers voices change when they get older. But he still sounds like his young self. Incredible.

[@magnus_mode]

@@teecee9113 Listen to the original. Much higher pitched. He sounds much richer at this later age.

[@dynjarren8355]

Numan showed us the Dystopian Future 43 years ago. I remember buying this album in high school and thinking this sounds like the future and I was right. Only now it sounds modern and every bit as powerful as it did then. Thanks Gary!

[@DodderingOldMan]

@@eli8829 I honestly think Gary Numan's music has aged better than any musician of that era. This whole Brixton Academy set could have been first written and recorded yesterday.

[@Joechipp]

Almost absurdly majestic for us 80s kids.

[@kensweeney8798]

All hail Gary. Who's watching and listening to this in 2024! I remember listening this for the first time in 84!

[@RyshusMojo1]

Urgh!

[@sistergrimace1567]

I was bracing for impact when he started to sing but Jesus Christ he sounds great

[@mattgrodi291]

Yep...he gets better over time unlike some bands

[@user-ss7gx5rw9u]

This song never gets old and every time I hear it, the memories come flooding back ... I can still remember hearing my dad saying "Who the hell is this guy" when he first appeared on Top of the Pops ...The strange thing is, it was my dad that dyed my hair blond after my mum refused ... He actually liked some of his stuff in the end

[@mazmoslash4049]

I bow to the Master of electronic music & synth rock.

[@j.dmetalhead7517]

You can't beat a classic, and this is a genuine CLASSIC track. A brilliant track from a brilliant album. Still sounds as fresh today as it did in 1979.

[@djdoolittle1315]

NONEBELIEVING ANTITHEIST magic band 💚🎶👍

[@tigermunky]

This live version actually sounds better than the album. I prefer his more matured voice.

The ACE of spades!

[@gentillygirl545]

Watching Gary Numan is addictive.

[@thethoughtmaster]

Love the synth. I think that is what I miss most from the 70's and 80's.

[@criticalmass9483]

Totally diggin it. I like how it's sort of a combination of the retro sound, plus some new.

[@thethoughtmaster]

@@criticalmass9483 The great thing with Techno and Synth is, it does not sound old, you could play it to a new audience and they would not know till they compare it.

[@Sean-ie3wy]

Yeah because absolutely no music is made with synthesisers in 2024🤔

[@thethoughtmaster]

@@Sean-ie3wy are we on the same page, you sound like you have some internal problems.

[@pinillasb]

I absolutely LOVE when people in the crowd wave their arms like Gary’s.

[@robroy5573]

So, do you do the arm wave all the time at home watching the video? Don't feel ashamed if you do. 👍

[@pinillasb]

@@robroy5573 Actually I do!

[@stevenoates6059]

How the hell do you say thank God for Numan, when Numan doesn't believe in God?? Ill just pay homage to rumour........., can't wait to get back down in the park. Xxxx

[@mattgrodi291]

It's surreal is what it is....surreal!

[@bwyyy7306]

Incredible, the people he hired to play the music nailed it

[@AndreasViklundOfficial]

After 20+ replays, three things stick in my mind. First: Amazing stage presence! Second: Vocals sound better than ever! Third: That's the right drummer for the job! I wasn't born when this song was made, but it has followed me for all my life in different ways. So happy to get to see live versions of it online, and I really hope that I will get a chance to send a simple "Thank you!" to Gary for all the melodies, emotions and inspiration that I have found through his work. It means a lot, for this random nobody...

[@ArcturusAndromeda]

Drummer is awesome!

[@dustinslaughter5193]

This song still gives me chills. Such an amazing f-ing track.

[@GHOST-mi4jh]

🤬 AWESOME!

[@JaiPritchett]

One of my all time favs since I was 8!!! I am now 42... I love you Gary!

[@c70honda40]

I was only 8 in 1979 so young fan still love his music today in 2020 👍

[@jamescaron6465]

On of the best songs of the 80's sounds like nothing before or since.

[@MarkSmith-bn3tr]

That reaction at the end hitting the floor,that says " I fucking nailed that" gary,you've been "nailing" it for years! ! Thank you gary

[@rabbruce8232]

Fantastic version and voice spot on might even be better than all these years ago ✋

[@casieatthe393]

When you write music that was remnant of the future when it hits the future it sounds modern.

we evolve or we die.. gary rocking his classic track with ghost dancing ... is classic

The synth player is excellent !!!

[@stagunner]

I bought the sound track for Times Square, in 1980. 40 years ago and still like this style of music

[@artysanmobile]

[@DeathMetalDerf]

My dream is to one day break my "no concerts" rule for a Gary Numan concert. I really have terrible social anxiety and large crowds are so scary to me that last time I tried I raw away from the venue screaming because of people lining up to get in.

[@petejones879]

What I love about Gary numan is that you never know what the song is gonna be until it kicks in with a familiarity..

[@SincereSentinel]

Was nervous to watch this because I've never heard or seen him do it live. Sounds fantastic. Sigh of relief.

[@stickymeat88]

YEEEAAAAHHH!!

[@ms.carlson3904]

So beautiful. Wish I was there.

[@JaneFox-hq6vh]

Я искренне не понимаю что подписчиков на канале всего 103 тысячи и что я узнала о Gary Numan только сейчас в 2024 году. В Росссии все знают кто такие Depeshe Mode и Queen, но я уверена что единицы знают Gary. Это не справедливо! Слушаю одну за одной песню и они все мне очень ноавяься. Я даже стараюсь не слушать их много потому что хочу растянуть удовольствие, давно не находила нового музыкального "наркотика" для себя. И на этом выступлении, если он поет вживую, то это потрясающе, потому что голос сохранился таким же как и 40 лет назад.

[@strace67]

HE JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER!! Starting to truly believe he is a time traveler

[@danielmcalister2713]

I believe so.

[@JurgenSpeck]

I love it in this live version !!! Great song ! and a flashback to my eighties !!!!
