Gary Numan on TV-AM 1992

Gary Numan on TV - AM promoting Machine & Soul , 1992.

[@cozener845]

Yes Lorraine, he is 'refreshingly honest'. Ego free and well grounded (despite all the aeronautics).

[@johnhellier3746]

I love his honesty in Interviews albeit sometimes a little too honest ! :)

[@johnriley5268]

I met him and got his autograph. He said school maths paper how old are you, ,,,, I was 14 at the time still got the autograph

[@iainwallington474]

What a great bloke.

[@randomeddie]

His 'Neil Diamond' hair days...

[@video2000_TV]

the hair is one thing, but how did he get rid of the eyebrows ?

[@sratus]

What would you call his 'hair' days at the moment?

[@ScottyP51]

I remember the tour when Machine and Soul was the opener, brilliant. He knew how to make an entrance back then, really build up the atmosphere and make everyone go mental! Not really the same anymore reaction anymore.

[@turkeygrump]

"Where did you go? Where have you been?" Why does she act like Numan just disappeared after "Cars?" He had a ToTP presence well into the '80s. Do people act like Telekon through Berserker didn't even happen? The Fury through Metal Rhythm? Also, Outland is underrated.

[@dixgun]

Nice interview

[@PatrickIngham21]

It would have been around the date of the release of Machine & Soul LP and Single, so im guessing around Autumn 1992

[@cinsationalcinema1776]

Horrible time for the wonderful music of Gary Numan. Thankful he makes super bitchin music now. 2019

[@LFOVCF]

So you're being evaluated as a pilot, and GN gets in beside you. I'd forget which is the joystick haha

[@alisonkovacs9871]

Where are Gary's eye brows

[@thetiktokman]

Any idea what date this was aired?

[@CKT1138]

Yeah I think the missing eyebrows somehow make his hairline seem worse than it actually is here.

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

Wow a premonition of the Shoreham airshow disaster!

[@futureisgosub]

From the days when Numan did honest interviews, these days all of his interviews just constantly mention NIN and Asperger's

[@outpost31737]

Yep he doesn't have Aspergers.

[@Grithron2]

M&S the album I don't think is very good - but it's better than Outland! Outland is the depressing sound of someone who's exhausted a formula but can't think of anything else to do. At least he tries a few new things on M&S - the Prince cover (which I like), the verbosity of Generator and Poison... To me, he looks prematurely aged in this clip! Needed another hair transplant, for one thing.

[@crazier1]

when m&s first came out i hated it, but compared to the shite he is bringing out now (dsr) m&s is brilliant, really like it now .

[@weestuburns]

@thetiktokman 1887

[@The.Last.Guitar.Hero.]

He hates this album I prefer to the poor man's Trent Reznor he's become now

[@robertmarles6447]

I agree, this is more like his classic stuff than what he's doing now.

[@cnfuzz]

His new stuff sux chocolate salty balls

[@raul17lu1990]

Gary itself hate the album.

[@everybodyreach]

Numan hasn't had a good album since 88, he's the eternal misanthrope recycling the same lyrical themes with a goth rock sound 15 years out of date. Such a shame

[@sandygrungerson1177]

yeah, "i hate god, god hates me" etc etc etc

[@outpost31737]

Indeed and it continues in 2022. I cannot distinguish one track from the next let alone identify the album any of the new songs belong to.

[@calebfuller4713]

Wow did that comment age badly. His last few albums are the best stuff he's ever done. (and most commercially succesful too)

[@TheLemonKid01]

Aw c'mon you guys be a little objective here! The overall look was bad (Kipper in spandex and with the Kenny G hair) and the music was shite. There is no way in hell you can appreciate Jagged and Machine & Soul equally. If Numan's name had not been associated with this, most of you would of passed it on by.

[@outpost31737]

Jagged is utter crap.

[@TheLemonKid01]

@@outpost31737 Thanks, you've just proven my point. If you like Machine and Soul then you shouldn't be liking Jagged and vice versa. Those albums are so different one from the other that they could literally be by a different artist. However, some fans aren't able to be critical of his music and end up liking anything with the Numan name on it.

[@Tazz77]

LOL @ that fake Elvis.

[@outpost31737]

Awful period for Gary but I prefer some of the M&S stuff to the Nine Inch Knobhead parody that he's become.
