As a Numan fan of 44 years that gets a massive 👍from me.

[@jhall5490]

I must admit she did a pretty good version of that Gary Numan track and I'm very fussy and critical of Numan covers with me being a fan of GN for 42 years !

[@danbury6279]

There is quite a few covers of numan songs chicane covering cars fear factory also covering cars are friends electric cover by sugar babes even basement jaxx did a sample of what gary used for m.e. For there song where’s your head at

[@steveh4290]

@@danbury6279 - Fear Factory did the cover of Cars with Numan himself. This Poppy version is a brilliant cover though.

[@colingray4096]

Same here, really enjoyed the cover version AND wouldn't it have been awesome if the man himself appeared from the side stage singing alongside her!!

[@miked4309]

METZ does a good cover too. Poppy's covers are excellent. she also does Kittie and Bowie that are excellent.

[@FuzzleMusic]

Curious if you would enjoy our version of this song 🤔 It’s on our channel

[@nigelgoodwin5094]

Great version of a great Numan song. Great mix too. Good clear vocals. Good image!

[@Conn30Mtenor]

excellent cover. This is from a fan of Numan since '79.

[@BarrySmithviolin]

Me too! Love how she honors the melon with her beautiful voice

[@796andy2]

right ?? saw him at emerald city , 197???

[@hamill06]

That guitarist has such a cool 90s grunge vibe to his style of playing… love it! Wish this version was on Spotify

[@aislinnkerr5618]

God I can't even contain how much I wish I'd been there.

[@viaslater]

I love it when she wears her hair like that 😍

[@BedlamAndBones]

Nothing but love for this awesome reworking of a Gary Numan classic!

[@Z20bEn53]

Cover of Gary Numan's Metal? YES! Excellent!

[@redbradshaw6330]

Poppy concerts are worth every minute I see thanks for all the ❤

[@raccoonboy5595]

I love how she added the guitars and drums to make the song more “ Metal” 😎

[@jvon3885]

Lol. This is not metal. And this is why music has been ruined. It's sad really.

[@inkeefeek]

​@@jvon3885he didn't say that the song itself was metal,he said that she gave It more "metalish" sound to it at the live version,It was just a pun,and poppy actualy Makes real metal music Like Say Cheese

[@jvon3885]

@inkeefeek no, no she does not. She is a industry ripoff who is told ehat to do. She is the industries music stew. They use her to grab people from all general in order to implant brainwashing frequencies. Everything about this artist is fake. And everyone of her fans are being led to a mental slaughter house.

[@cinsationalcinema1776]

Props for covering the legendary Gary Numan. Great job. Very missing persons like

[@BarrySmithviolin]

BRILLIANT!!! 🖤

[@KronnangDunn]

Holy Chet! I am a fan of Gary Numan's works and this is a very goood cover.....

[@SuperSamboiman]

this just looked like a really fun show

[@andresgaete3377]

Esta es la mejor presentación, además sale bellísima. No me aburro de verla una y otra vez.

[@andresgaete3377]

Esta chica es increíble, que ganas de verla en Chile.

3:20 She's so ICONIC! 😍

[@zenithoclock1048]

Wow, this is superb. Love the look and the sound.

[@Tim-Sherer]

I really enjoyed this performance. You guys hit every damn mark. I'm gonna watch it again.

[@FossilStudios316]

That scream was pretty incredible!

[@garlowe8565]

Have to say, that’s a pretty good cover of one of my most favorite artists. Way to go Poppy!! ❤️

[@praetentious2925]

Always loved that song

[@chrisrus1965]

Wow. That was really amazing. I'm really surprised. That was excellent. I thought she was a lightweight. I had no idea.

[@Tommy-cx6vj]

I knew of her as this meme but didnt really knew she sang, I heard this on a wwe game and liked the sound of it then found out it was her, im blown away.

[@onethingabtit8930]

wwe 2k20 YES I was very annoyed by it at first then I was like it’s starting to sound good so I gave it a chance and found the original and I’ve been in love ever since😩

[@BrizzzoStizzzo]

Same… I kept it on repeat lol

[@whom382]

FYI: she has played it since several times.

[@PaulDenman]

I love that so much 😍

[@AbsoluteNut1]

I love this.

[@babylonsburning1]

Great version. A mass up on Foxx's Ultravox and Numan with Strawberry Switchblade sounding vocals. Luv it.

that was great

[@SonOne68]

Wow, tight and crisp. Love the vocal, true and authentic representation

[@yourmumspogostick7336]

So Awesome!! I'm glad Poppy is unlike any pop sensation.....its pop-art

[@Scratiznutz]

It's also a Gary Numan classic off 'The Pleasure Principle'.😊

[@nirealddigex9468]

ICONIC

[@keirfarnum6811]

I would love a studio version of this.

[@miked4309]

i love Poppy.

[@geburah2]

:( I miss dreams too

[@GNeuman]

Great cover

[@stevieboyXI]

Live version is even better. Wow.

[@tomkeene9004]

cuz its lip synced

[@redbradshaw6330]

You done it again pola

[@MentalMickey999]

Excellent.

[@gracelove886]

The sound engineering on this song is much better. In Some of her performances the guitars overpower her voice and I can't hear a word.

[@johnfree2833]

Dopiddy dope dope

[@demp4948]

1:56 That guitar looks like the one Aaron North had in the video for the song The hand that Feeds :0

[@Tokiofritz]

Weird, scary and good all at the same time.

I always knew poppy had metal in her when I heard 2:24

[@HeirRiddles]

I really love this video, did you record the performance of X that came after from that angle?

[@MarkoPola]

Thank you. Unfortunately I didn’t record X at this show but you can find other recordings of it on my channel.

[@GNeuman]

That's really, really good. Are the bass and lead guitarist related to Hazel O'Conner?

[@stefanoberhammer919]

[@juanmarey87]

Poppy and the John 5's , nice!

[@markdawson9094]

Poppy concerts over. Nuuuuuuuu 😭

[@jimsin101]

Love the recorded version of her cover, but the guitars on this take it to another level. Wish she'd release a recorded version with the guitars, or at least a high quality live recording.

[@r.l.seiber3879]

GREAT PERFORMANCE! But Numan is timeless, of course.

[@karlroberts3879]

Fantastic Remix Poppy Totally wicked in every way Ps Would that be your Father and band playing 4 u xxx

Does hitting the replay button count as a view?

[@pauldecristoforo]

We need a studio track.

[@michaelward9657]

There is one, it’s released as a single

[@krazytaxicabbie]

I like watching this compared to the lyric video.

Poppy likes to eat cotton candy...why?

[@rigopeligro]

Is she lip singing?

[@LoudMan01]

Yes

[@thatprettyb8machine146]

You can put effects over your voice live, I doubt it, I've seen her live and she didn't lip sync then, that was only 2 weeks ago that I saw her tho All I know is the metal growl/scream she did in this performance was 100% not a lip sync, she did that for real

[@camihl3841]

@@thatprettyb8machine146 Yeah the singing was lip sync, the scream wasn't

[@AlectriXSharpness]

Okay is everyone ignoring the fact that she is literally doing lipsync?

[@camihl3841]

Yeah but she's still amazing live so doesn't really matter

[@JoshB333]

I haven’t seen a video where it sounds like her singing yet, send the link

Cami Bell Bloodmoneys not a good “singing” example tho, it’s just yelling lol

[@camihl3841]

@@JoshB333 I think her new album has more yelling, so idk. I remember watching an interview of her from some years ago and she was singing acoustic versions of "Lowlife" and "Everybody wants to be Poppy", she did well. Idk why she's been apparently lip synching
