Thanks for posting. I recently found a very old video tape of lots of Numan TV interviews from 1980s and 1990s that I recorded way back then. I am trying hard to salvage whats on it as it is in very poor condition and this show was on it but is badly aged. So glad you have it up in such great condition. I will post as much as I can from that tape over the coming weeks as long as I don't already find them on KZbin :)

It is a bit cringy, but it's a catchy version dripping with 80s charm and it still makes me smile every time. It's so nice to see Gary having a laugh with Leo together. I love that Gary ends up stripping down to his classic Berserker look at the end ⛔🔺👑

@shubunkini yes but you realise this is a joke right? at least gary has a sense of humour! and it was the 80's, there is far more cringeworthy things than this from that era too

At the time, Gary was on his own label "Numa Records." You may be getting confused with the "IRS Records" label, when they made him cover the Prince tracks "1999" and "U Got the Look." Gary actually performed "U Got the Look" on the "Isolate" tour

I looked forward to seeing this all evening when it was on, I think Gary did another track too from Beserker that night, looking back though this is awful now, but as a 15 year old Gary could do no wrong, beginning of ' The Wilderness Years ' for Gary I think. I am guilty of not buying his stuff from 85 until 93. The new Splinter album sounds like the album that should have followed Telekon.

A segment of this clip was used during a programme about the low points in Gary Numan's career. The narrative implied that Gary hated doing this kind of stuff and felt embarrassed and awkward doing it.

I know I recall reading an interview where he said he really hated doing the Prince covers like 1999 and whatever the other one was but he got pushed into doing them...

Gary is allowed a few mistakes like this. I mean he can't be genius 100% of the time - who can? Nearly every great artiste have a couple of clangers like this under their belt. I suppose at the time it was not that bad and times were different, but if he did it today then yeah, mental. The version he did without Leo was fine.

Tv appearances like this were very damaging for Gary’s career . He should have kept the mystique, the distance from mainstream pop .
