I've been a big Gary Numan fan since the late 70's, and his music gets better as the years go on. He freely admits he has had a couple of facelifts but it is subtle, he still looks the same. And his voice is so distinctive.
You have missed his whole evolution...from Sacrifice, Pure, Exile, Jagged on to his new one about to be released, he has only gotten better and darker.
Love Gary Numan, still great after all these years. Also a hero in my other passion for aviation, he piloted a Piper around the world and was also an aerobatics pilot and instructor on the British Airshow scene. Clever chap.
You should have let the autoplay continue. It was loading a live concert, where he brings his daughter Persia on stage for her to sing her part in this song and it is so cute. She brings a note sheet because she is afraid to forget her lines. And Gary, being this goth idol breaks character, because he is just so damn proud. Incidentally, this is only Gary Numan song I know. I stumbled on it when it was released (is that really 3-4 years already) an listened to it for a month without even needing to listen to any more of his song. It's a great song, but has a strange structure where it basically starts over halfway through.
I saw Gary open for Nine Inch Nails many years ago and I didn't know who he was until they played 'Cars'. I had heard the song before, but knew nothing else about it. His performance blew me away and I have been a fan ever since. I saw him in a video series called 'What's in my bag' or something. The premise was that artists would go to a record store, pick out several albums, and then explain why they chose them. One of his albums was Nine Inch Nails. When he explained why he picked it, he opened up about some hard times he was going through and about how he had hit a 'creative wall' and that NIN (and Trent Reznor) gave him the creative spark he needed. Very humble and cool guy. You have some cool patrons if they are requesting his stuff =)
Gary has also credited Depeche Mode for helping him find his newer sound as well as helping him through some really dark times. Could you imagine a DM, NIN and Gary tour?!
FYI the video was shot on the 16th & 17th of june 2017 near 29 Palms, California in 118F/48C heat 2:17 we get the opening panorama of Joshua Tree desert with "snow" & mountains i can't locate 3:21 & 3:40 Gary is walking (west?) along a deeply rutted dust path , (pole or pipe, line road ? ) 4:41 & 6:21 the 25 X 15 foot building was on a 1400 foot across ice age rock debris mound west of Amboy Rd at 34.1947345,-115.7280922 & from this vantage point some drone shots were done looking E/SE & W/NW
You don't break the song with stopping to comment. I like the short commentary layer over the music, not interrupting the flow. You both got me. Subscribed!😁🤗
You have just made two little girls very happy... they want me to say a big big thank you... Esme is now telling her teacher she got a shout out on CZcams... very excited :) As ever guys a massive thank you... xx
That's awesome, we're so glad they're happy about it! And I think Ginger's played that song about a hundred times in the last 24 hours, so it was a great introduction for us. :) -M
One reason alot of Gary's fans hadn't heard or realized that he was still making music is because radio stations don't play his stuff but just all the modern crap.I have owned his original stuff for years but actually found his new albums on Amazon and bought most of them.I first heard Gary in a record store but today,there are few of those left.I loved spending time in the local record store just hearing bands for the first time.That era is lost now.
I love this song. This is right up my alley too. I should have been following his career . I was an 80's girl and loved "In cars" This sound is badass. And his daughter has a great future ahead of her too. I love to see father and daughter working together. Great song. Great sound.
Very Peter Schilling indeed. This man is amazing. Such a sweetheart of a guy. I was over the moon when this album came out. He's the best of the eighties.
@@MikeandGinger "Asylum" It's an instrumental, but still a great song, "I Am Dust", "Love hurt Bleed", "Crazier", "Bed of Thorns", and "Who Are You" are just a few of them.
Much of Gary's newest sound is down to his producer Ade Fenton. The latter put out an album a few years back and had Gary contribute vocals. This video, "Healing", is the highlight of that album - very, very dystopian. Y'all should do a video on this one :) czcams.com/video/hIVImVhVoDY/video.html
Scary when loud. I' a metal fan for 40 years or so BUT like Tubeway Army. Didn't tell my friends - would have been ridiculed. At University I had a friend lover (80s university Manchester everyone liked everyone). Tracey had 3 tickets to see him signed by Paul Gadd - we had no seats but her dad worked with the keyboard player of the backing band. HOW ZEN IS THAT!! now it seems insane With bands of the time - Numan and Kershaw and "look mama" (in my top 5 Jones tracks) THEY WERE the 80s for me (in addition to metal)_ and bizarrely Cliff Richard (no idea - for psychologists in future life)
Nice - think I actually saw this when it came out, rahter than discovering it 10 years after everyone else, which is my usual way. Random link, but the white cross on the girl's face reminded me of the same idea used by Skin in this aboslute banger from Skunk Anansie: czcams.com/video/Nc0zDfH1jog/video.html The song was used in the movie Strange Days, which is why the video is a mix of movie clips and performance footage.
Hey guys you better do a reaction video to Cassandra Coleman before she blows up the music industry, her audition on American Idol 3 days ago was phenomenal. Please do a reaction to Cassandra performing "DON'T KILL MY VIBE" by Sigrid, you won't be disappointed....
hi guys you have to listen to Mariza Gente da minha terra, fado is a traditional Portuguese style of music, I've seen that there were already Dulce Pontes, you need to see Mariza czcams.com/video/S2Ip-uUhaoI/video.html
I was 16 years old in '79 when I discovered his album Replicas. I think that album, along with The Pleasure Principal are within the top 10 synth/rock records released between '78-'90. Groundbreaking and very unique. I still listen to them regularly. However, his album Telekon was a bit of a letdown and the quality of his music after that took a severe nosedive. A few good songs here and there up until about '84 but everything after that is pure crap. My opinion is that he "had his time" and became wildly obsessed with Trent Reznor...to his detriment.
I've played this to my 7 Yr old daughter and now she's such a massive fan that we are seeing Gary in concert this year together!
Gary is a legend. I’ve seen him in concert twice in the last few years. His last album was amazing.
1979.. holy shit this Gary guy sounds like the future.
2024.... Holy shit this Gary guy sounds like the future
The young girl singing is his daughter Persia.
I suspected - G
I knew she was named after a country, but couldn't think which.

I've got to check this out! Thanks for the references! This type of music like many others hold a deep place inside my heart

Really?! That’s very cool. Mike loves planes - G

Haven't listen to Gary in ages. That was great guys👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

That’s very cool. Thanks for that 👍🏻 - G
It's amazing how NIN's Trent Reznor speaks to how much of an influence Gary Numan was on his aesthetic.
Gary has also credited Depeche Mode for helping him find his newer sound as well as helping him through some really dark times. Could you imagine a DM, NIN and Gary tour?!

Thanks John! And welcome 🙏🏻 - G

Woot - G

You have just made two little girls very happy... they want me to say a big big thank you... Esme is now telling her teacher she got a shout out on CZcams... very excited :) As ever guys a massive thank you... xx

It’s true. I have played it at least 100 times 😉 - G
Great song . He just released a new song about a month ago, new album coming in May.
I saw Gary said that the filming on this video was very tough, it was over 100 degrees so he and his daughter were very hot
His name is heat exhaustion 🤣 - G
This guy...just f’n awesome!
This is so good I love Gary so so much would love to go and see him in concert next year
He had just put out a new video this year. New album on way as well
One reason alot of Gary's fans hadn't heard or realized that he was still making music is because radio stations don't play his stuff but just all the modern crap.I have owned his original stuff for years but actually found his new albums on Amazon and bought most of them.I first heard Gary in a record store but today,there are few of those left.I loved spending time in the local record store just hearing bands for the first time.That era is lost now.

Love Gary Numan in concert. Any time he comes to Denver we go! He is one of my favorites in concert!
Very Peter Schilling indeed. This man is amazing. Such a sweetheart of a guy. I was over the moon when this album came out. He's the best of the eighties.
Graduation 84, Gary was a formative music then, he still keeps it real in 21st century world.
Gary Numan went from New Wave, to Industrial, about 25 years ago. I could name a TON of other songs by him, that you should listen to.
Lol. That’s awesome. Definitely share a few good ones for us to check out! - G
@@MikeandGinger "Asylum" It's an instrumental, but still a great song, "I Am Dust", "Love hurt Bleed", "Crazier", "Bed of Thorns", and "Who Are You" are just a few of them.
He went from punk...
Gary is gold and his daughter Persia is gonna be even better if that's possible 👊❤

Agree with the Peter schilling ref..Good spot..
Did you have a nice nap in your time capsule? Gary's been busy all these years.
Love gary and persia another amazing song!

you haven't heard nothing in 40 years from Gary. God where have you been, in a hole...
People have lives. He was off the mainstream music radar for years until this song.
@@ChrisPage68 not numan. these two...
Hey guys you better do a reaction video to Cassandra Coleman before she blows up the music industry, her audition on American Idol 3 days ago was phenomenal. Please do a reaction to Cassandra performing "DON'T KILL MY VIBE" by Sigrid, you won't be disappointed....
So yeah I'm sure ppl have mentioned it... The girl is Porscha, his daughter singing on this.
It's Persia
Blond female in the video, I'm pretty certain is one of his daughters........documentary said they"re living in the US now
Gary numan a new song called intruder
You need to review his latest video, "Saints And Liars"
hi guys you have to listen to Mariza Gente da minha terra, fado is a traditional Portuguese style of music, I've seen that there were already Dulce Pontes, you need to see Mariza czcams.com/video/S2Ip-uUhaoI/video.html
I heard the young lady is his daughter!!!
Hi I love your videos!!!!! It would be great sometime if you could react to Bob Dylan's 'Murder Most Foul' which was released in 2020, thanks.

Cool song and his daughter is very talented as well, the video just seemed to be out of place, either way I really like his music.....
She is her daugther .... so cruel!
