- Gary Numan performs with Tubeway Army LIVE "Down in the Park" which has been re-recorded in Dolby sound!
- Down in the park
Where the mach-men meet the machines
And play 'kill-by-numbers'
Down in the park with a friend called five
I was in a car crash
Or was it the war
But I've never been quite the same
Little white lies like I was there
Come to "Zom-Zom's", a place to eat
Like it was built in one day
You can watch the humans
Trying to run
Oh look there's a rape machine
I'd go outside if he'd look the other way
You wouldn't believe
The things they do
Down in the park
Where the chant is "death, death, death"
Until the Sun cries morning
Down in the park with friends of mine
We are not lovers
We are not romantics
We are here to serve you
A different face but the words never change
Cheers to ALL the Numanoids for the positive comments!

The Tik-Tok Man aka Peter Enright @ peterenright.com wrote me to tell me this exactly,
"Bit of useless trivia here: Very interesting this has found its way into the ABC Rage archives. let me explain. Way back in 1983 John Bray & myself re-edited Numan's live concert video footage at Custom Video to the stereo LP soundtrack of the same LIVING ORNAMENTS gig - just so I could have good sound quality instead of the very poor original mono video sound quality. We transferred the VHS to 1" videotape & re-synced the sound to match. This clip is one of the tracks we cut - it's entirely unofficial - & the giveaway is the blue wash on some scenes & the pyramid shaped Quantel digital effect which we used to slow mo the footage & keep it in sync to the vinyl stereo mix which of course ran at a slightly different speed - none of which exists on the original footage. I gave a 2" dub to a mate at the ABC (forget his name) & from there it has entered their system as an official clip - but it's not, it's all my work & John Bray's editing! Amazing to see it after all these years."

Gary Nyman changed EVERYTHING for me. I was 11 yrs old. I'm 52 now & has still my hero
Tremendous! : ))

@@wazza316 No its not Wayne. This was earlier than that. 1979.
@@markhughes8314 my apologies this is the living ornaments 79 video package
i believe that......he was so different than most other acts at the time
We all have a friend called 5 !! Absolutely Brilliant!! Take me back to 1979, I was 13 and when I heard the Replicas album .. that was it!!! I am 54 now, with 2 grown up sons… yes life changes for everyone.. but Gary Numan is still and will always be amazing!!!! I am seeing Gary Numan in Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 on March 11, 2022…The Intruder Tour…Savage and Intruder are pure GOLD!! Gary’s style has changed… I love him📀📀🎶 R.I.P. Paul Gardiner & Cedric Sharpley…🙏 taken from this world to soon… never forgotten. May our Lord and Saviour bless Gary and his beautiful family🌹take care everyone! With love 💕 from Toronto LA x
After all these years, this still sounds like the future.
This is a very apt observation! Feels that way to me too
Watching this, I realize what a magical time this was in my life, and also the life of music. Heavily charged with artistry and creativity. Glad I was a part of it. Kind of sad that it has passed.
Great version/video... He might not invented electronica music but he honed it & became the KING👑 IMO
I was 17y when "in cars "came out, me and my friends were mostly into BOB MARLEY etc. btw. Am black west Indian some of us had dread loc. on my lunch period I went to the record store in downtown Brooklyn bought the album i was kind of ashamed to let my friends know i like that kind of music, anyway we cut classes that day went to one of my friends house smoke a big joint put on "in cars " to my surprise one of my friends was familiar with it, man I think we cut another grove in the record, jumping ahead years, i learned the guitar although i never played tech-rock one thing i learned from GN is you don't always have to sound like Jimmy Hendricks on your guitar solos a nice prearranged solo work just as well. GN Was DEFINITELY a paradigm shift!
The guy was ahead of his Time, proud of you for having the strength to be different in front of your friends.
Perhaps the purest expression of Numan's genius. Its sounds resonates through these last four decades like a beacon of hope.
Gary was revolutionary back in the day and his music is still incredibly relevant today! Was fortunate enough to see him live recently and he still puts on a fantastic show and sounds great!

Thank you! The mono tape was for sale in 1981 for $150 U.S. about $2000 in today's money. :-)
Thanks for your hard work the tik tak man we love you 😁😋
Awsome!! Thankyou so much for all your hard work and fun living the dream.
The Tik-Tok Man - thank you for doing it.
this version was on the episode where Marilyn Manson was guest vj a few years back
Why is NUMAN so magic? I love his work so much.
Sheer #Magic
Gary Numan is the greatest.
Suddenly, out of the blue, came Gary Numan. So unique, It was as if he had come from a different planet. Completely original and changed my life forever. I have been obsessed with synthesizers ever since. Got my first synth soon after hearing Friends electric. Now I have more than a few. Once you get the bug, there is no cure. Thank you so much for sharing. this is priceless.
Thanks for the terrific comment, cheers +moog Dome
Thing is though he didn't really come out of the blue. He had already released 3 singles and an album before he hit the big time with his 4th single Are Friends Electric. This track was his 3rd single but like the first two it didn't chart. Nor did his first album until it was rereleased 👍
A friend of mine found a a cassette on the sidewalk of Kraftwerk's Man Machine before Gary hit big in the US with The Pleasure Principal. We couldn't playing it. It really seemed like it came from outer space.
We were made fun of in school for loving this stuff. When I turned 15 in January '81 I spent my whole year' s gift money and my summer lawn moving money on a new Sequential Circuits Pro-One, which I still have. ❤️
This is as close to musical perfection as it gets for me. Amazing.
agreed 100%
Very Cool Gary,, A Killer Fuckin Musician,, Been Listening To Him 4 Like
"HOLY SHIT" 35+...
On alternate Earth #4, we listen to Gary Numan's songs all the time. After all, his songs created the reality we live in. See you down in the park.
I was so grateful and humbled to be able to see him do this live last night. I was only 13 when he came here on tour and my parents would not let me go see him. It was worth the wait...the man is a living legend. He was every bit as good live as his recordings.
There is before Gary and after Gary... For those of us who get it, we can listen over and over to this music throughout our lives, it never ever gets old, it is ALWAYS fresh, new and exciting. It provides the soundtrack to our lives and speaks to us with different voices at different times depending on what we need. The sound activates us, makes us sad, makes us vibrate and gives us pleasure. You cannot explain it to someone who has not been exposed (infected?). Unless you have spent hours on a Saturday night alone in front of a mirror in your parents basement with the lights off and a flashlight for a microphone screaming "Death Death Death Until The Sun Cries Morning", there is no need to go any further...
Bravo! Gary is one of those rare birds who has the ability to give us something 30 years ago that will forever be preferable to whatever is going on at the moment. I like a lot of randomness when it comes to music, but only a handful of artists have really infected me...infect in the best way possible of course! Gary will always just do it for me because everything about him was wild and outrageous in the most other-worldly kind of way...that's the sort of thing that transcends time and space...totally dig that.
+Are Sounds Electrik? Hahahaha, yep me to, when I was 14 I used to wear my mams eyeliner at the local disco and dance to Gary when they put I die you die on, got me some nice girls but got my head kicked in a few times as well.
I first heard Gary in a jeans advert and I've loved his music ever since. Down In The Park is one of my all time favourites. 😈
i was and still am a rocker but tubeway army just blew me away in a way i had never been taken on an imaginative journey before
Yup. Got it.
I found Gary Numan intimidating when I was a girl. Even the name Tubeway Army had this dark scary sound. I liked it but it unnerved me.
Grew up listening to this with my dad. Some things never change 😊 Gary is a true icon.
One of the best songs ever made
+Beta Evers Amazing song great performance I agree
I would kill to hear a Beta Evers version of Down in the Park!
Have to agree.
In " Cars"

that "he is the coolest dude

This is great! Thanks for making this video of this classic song available! Thanks to the uploaders! And thanks to CZcams for letting me see it! He was 30 years ahead of his time! His band and the light show were Brilliant!
D RolyPolyMan indeed. Look at his defiant look. That attitude. The moves. Even the stage’s so fucking cool. What an incredible performance.
hashtagpopculture synths are the best thing ever, they wipe the floor with rubbish we hear in today’s charts.
One of the greatest simple pleasures I have is, to load up GTA Vice City and listen to the 80s radio channel, while driving around.
If “Cars” plays while the ‘day’ is ending, I pull up and watch the sun set, in-game.
If you had not up loaded this I would never have found this version. It's my favorite by a long shot, thank you for making my life better.
Glad I could help Cunty,much love!
Totally awesome... A song that still sounds great after 4 decades.
Happy 60th, Mr. Numan...
Wow60thatswhy, I’m now58Andanoldfart!artasmykid say.

Gary Numan could not sing/dance or even look at home on a stage,,,,,,but no one has had a bigger effect on my life than this man .Even now I am 54 I do not go a week without listening to his music. I have a tattoo of him on my arm and I am proud to wear it. His music and lyrics have moulded my personality and I would like to think he may read this, and if you are Gary, thenTHANK YOU it was a pleasure to grow up and die with your music in my heart.
I was only a young fan in 79 I was nine still love his music today 👍🏻👍🏻
Saw Gary back then. Love the way he's always got a real drummer and kit.
Gary is Every-genre.
Way ahead of his time
Timeless
Relevant.
Perpetual.
not just the first for electronic music, but pouting also, both have become huge!!! Well done GN
I wish I could go back into time and be there.
I can just by closing my eyes as I was there!
Anna Marie...I was in 79/80 saw him 3 times back then , he was and still is genius
It was great, bought this album in 1980, his stuff now is even better
@Adolf Hitler I can, as I was there in spirit. Listen to death or glory - by Motorhead, the lyrics describe what I mean.
I was there around then. I didn't see any of his gigs but I seem to remember the press giving him a hard time. A_Holes, he was just way way ahead of his time. Put it this way we're not there yet.
Pure Excellence!!!!! I have been a big fan for many decades now and this is still the greatest song that Gary has ever performed. Always sensational live in concert. The best live performance you will ever experience!!
Yeah thats right!!! The Replica Tour Back In 1979 At The Palais Theatre May 19-20 I Went And Saw Him And It Was Very Hi Tech Extremely Futuristic!!! There Had Never Been Anything Like It Before................And The Roaring Synthesizer's , So Many Of Them!!! At Least 3 , I counted , Made That Whole Building Vibrate And Shake, It Pounded On Our Chests...It Was Awesome!!! Especially His Song a 10 Minute Version Of , BOMBERS , That Sounded To Us They're Like A Squadron Of Big b52s All With Machine Guns Blazing , Were Actually In The Building With Us And It Still To This Very Day Chills Me How Well Gary Used Extreme Hi Fidelity To Rock That Whole Solid Hall It Numbed Every One Of Us Into Instant Standing Ovation!!! Chills Down Our Spines!!! Since Then I Have Been To At Least 100 Or More Big Concerts ,Big ,Names Nothing Like Mr Gary Numan Ever Since Have I Heard , And The Bass!!! That Bass!!! It Was SOOOO Mind Boggling!!! All Of His Songs Sounded Very Extremely Excellent !!! And He Had A Huge Speaker In The Middle Of The Stage That Delivered All That Reverbing Deep Base It Was at Least 15 meters tall and 8 meters Wide. " AND IT ROCKED!!! ESPECIALLY WITH SONG -WHEN THE MACHINES ROCK!!!" Esp Also...I NEARLY MARRIED A HUMAN!!!
I'm gunna show my age now 🙇 but I saw him do this live on the touring principal way way back in 1979.
Me too.
And me!
Show it with pride brother!! .....many of us here would have loved to be there!!! , if we just could get back in time damn it!!
I’m so jealous 😡😖🥺 Some People Will Tell you that the best years you live are the ones you haven’t lived yet... for me that applies to the past
one thing is for sure...if those new people you are talking about really know about music, they will be very humble if they were ask to compare guys like Numan to their guys.
The ‘80’s, & then the post 2010’s, incredible.💜✨💫✌️💧🙏
I had the original Down in the park 12" version back in 1979 with the live version of Me i disconnect from you and Do you need the service on the B side. I was a massive numanoid and caught him live on the Touring Principle and Teletour back in the day. Ive seen him many times over the years and been lucky to meet and chat with him on a few occasions, He`s a genius and a thoroughly nice guy.
.........1979........ one UNFORGETTABLE YEAR..........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
40 YEARS LATER,........IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY..............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Changed the face of music for generations!
1979 my favorite year & favorite song, still love it in 2016.
Shawn Luckman everything seemed to happen didn't it and then aids wrecked everything!
Nearly every current macroeconomic and international malady began in 1979 or as a result of 1979.
djoshuave can u educate me please ? on some examples ?
jdmnsxr 6 - petrodollar peaked causing Middle East to become extremely....interesting. Cold War hysteria was fever pitched. It was still ‘safe’ enough of a time that dystopia looked interesting and fashionable. Like maybe some freedom may exist in that chaos. Not so much these days. Too close to the bone. Leonard Cohn ultimately painted the picture best with “the future”.
Gary could see a long ways down the road, though.
a brilliant artist, scientist, philosopher, mime artist............. always concealed, a creative novice.......
this is my all time favourite live song. Always has and always will give me goosebumps.
Me too.
Saw him at Los Angeles Forum in 1981. Will be seeing his show in Nov. 2017. Met him at a meet and greet about 5-6 years ago. Nice guy. Have loved his music my entire adult life. It reaches "that place" in my soul.
THIS is the Gary Numan that made me a fan! Forget outland, machine+soul & metal rhythm . Give me telekon, replicas & pleasure principle everytime!
100%
This song is unbelievable. Got a joy division sound to it. It's so dark and out there it's a proper cult classic. God I was born in the wrong decade I'm 35 so many great bands back in the day
Seeing him live for the first time in September on his 40th Anniversary tour, I'm so excited☺
I was there!!!! Fabulous memory.
Awesome thanx James Gary Numan was indeed 2 decades ahead of his time a true pioneer.It's shitty he don't get the respect or recontition that he deserves for his craft
glad you like as much as me mate, I think Gary Numan was SO ahead of his time but so few people realized it! Cheers
I've got this on 12" immaculate condition. Love it
This was the stage setup when he played at the the Melbourne Palais Theatre, May 19 & 20 1979. I was really impressed by the lighting - I'd never seen computer controlled stage lighting up to that time.
Was THIS performance & video filmed in Melbourne or just this "stage set-up" ?
I know the Tik-Tok man below cut the video performance below but never mention it was from a Melbourne Concert
My first ever concert at 16! Now 33 and saw him few years ago last time, love to see him live again! Defo best performer ever!
Gary will always be a cool dude..major respect
this is the "skeleton key" for all things punk/new wave/rock/goth/industrial
Well said!
Father of Dépèche Mode??
Doug Hayduk you hit the nail on the head
can't forget lou reed, joy division and xtc
Jack Laslo Killing Joke too
As sensational today as it was then - a MASTERPIECE!
Loved him! Oil painted to his songs back in the day!!!! Will always appreciate his music brings out my artistic side! Thank you Gary!!!!
Legendär! Bin schon 35 Jahre Fan von ihm!
Magical. Beautiful.
I saw this tour. Still had Paul Gardiner on bass. I remember when they hit that last deep bass note, the whole theatre shook.
I can listen to this one again and again...such a trip🌠🌠🌠
Numan is without any doubt, one of the greatest song writers this Country has ever seen.
I remember his first track released and he shock the record industry to its core, they tried everyway to discredit him and his talents, other “Top 20” bands would secretly disrespect him knowing his greatness and that just fuelled their fear for some of the crap that was being pumped out at the time, well count on one hand how many of those have such a huge following…
One the most important musicians in my life
First song on my Tesla!
Gary Numan,back in the day was very creative and brought synthesizers to a whole new level in 1979.He had the image,props,and everything as a full package.Even to this day I enjoy watching his old videos and wish they can be put on dvd as a video package to purchase.
Pure genius,who could compete with this phenomenon.
Great version loved numan .
I saw him live in 1980. it was an excellent gig
I'm jealous 💯✅️✌️🆗️
he put on a great show.
Gary’s individuality is great, music very. Atmospheric, this is one of his best,
There was loads of songs around this time about. The. Park,⬜️⬛️🔳🔵🔷🔹
Who would have thought acoustic drums would merge so well with pure electronic synth music. What a fantastic sound.
Always loved this song. Saw him on his Replicas tour a long long time ago.
This song is so good, I love all the effects. I remember seeing this on Count Down or something.
I saw this concert tour on 11-8-1980 in Seattle at the Paramount and it blew me away. It was so different and creative! And massive! You have to remember that disco had just peaked. Crazy stuff. Also I liked his comment at the end, "you can't make any money touring around with all this stuff." Ha! I've bought 12 or so of his albums since....
UNBELIEVABLY BRILLIANT ! Where is anyone today in modern music with the image and original sound of this. So glad I was 18+ when all this happened
This is an amazing video--great quality, and like someone else commented below, the editing is phenomenal, especially for the time. Gary Numan looks great here--he's kind of an odd-looking fellow. I saw him play kind of recently (2006 at The Fillmore in San Francisco) and he played a great show. He was in amazing shape--the guy obviously works out a lot. Trent Reznor made a surprise appearance for about 4 songs--NIN was in town for a show and they'd previously done collaborations together.
Numan is quite open and vocal about being on the autism spectrum--Asperger's--and he's talked about how Aspergers greatly affects his music. I can see that--his songs are always so *perfect*, and a common theme of his is "man or machine". A great talent and a great video find.
+Andrea Waterstreet Gary lived at home w/ his mother until she passed despite being a multi-millionaire at 21 because of this Asperger's as well as the routine was part of framing and maintaining normality and control for him, very interesting fellow indeed!

"little white lies like I was there"
I was the ripe old age of ten when this came out but the summer ‘79 number one with “Are friends electric” etched Numan into my psyche permanently. The white noise live concert in Wembley was sheer brilliance and there will always be a place in my music collection for tracks like this.
I'm a latecomer to Numan (in my late 40s), and all I can say is he has had an obvious effect on a lot of music that I've loved for years.
Rock on Gary!
WOW, this brings back memories. Thanks for posting it. I was 14 and it was my first live gig (of any band at all). It was at the Bristol Hippodrome. Nash The Slash as support. The stage looked exactly as it does in this video! Complete with the rotating pyramids and the big strip lights. The only thing different about this song was that in Bristol he drove out onto stage in what looked like a converted Sinclair C5 and sang the song from that as he drove around. Anyone else remember that? I thought it was a reference to being 'in a car crash' or 'the war'. There was also a number where he came out with a Wasp synthesiser and sat at the front of the stage playing it, but I can't remember which song that was.
macronencer amazing! I saw him in Toronto in 2010 and he was beyond brilliant. Opening act: Nash the Slash! 💯
Hi,
I think your remembering the Teletour 80 tour when Nash The Slash was supporting and Gary came out in the Teletour car to Down in The Park,if I remember correctly he played the ARP Oddesey to the song Complex,I was at the Preston Guildhall gig on the Teletour 80 , it was the most amazing show of my life.....
I was in the front row to the left side of the stage,Gary was absolutely amazing!
Those were the day's...
to all of you in this post, thanks for sharing your new wave experiences on seeing one of the new wave leaders, Gary Numan
gosh there s cedric ooh so sad! ive been listening to this vinyl which i taped on my yamaha tape deck, and i cant stop listening to this album there is something about this and other songs on this live versions the sound so amazing its hard to describe.
send a link to the album?
One of the best songs ever.
Thank you Mr.Numan.
I was fortunate to have seen him twice. Always an amazing show.
Best version of this song!
It's the Wembley 81 live version synced to the Touring Principle footage.
Powerful , haunting and unique. Numan should be known for this song and not Cars and Are Friends Electric.
Close, the audio is actually from L.O. 80.
You both win.
Pure genius - what an amazing song😯
So way ahead of his time. His songs are ethereal and beautiful and his robot stage act just so cool.
Love those rotating and glowing pyramids...
Just tremendous!
This is the best version, first heard it on the john peel slot and i thought it was groundbreaking , absolutelly loved it
I got this on vinyl!
The epiphany of the 80s xx much love and appreciation
Gary's music will live for decade's and decade's more WHY very simple it was badass back then and it still is BADASS in 2018.
So sublime... and of course, angular! 📐
If you love this version, this is actually the performance from "Urgh! A Music War" which you will LOVE if you look it up!!!
B Ropous..no he was in the small car he drove around on stage in that Film ...same Concert series though,,,,I was at this one....brilliant
showing your age there bud
This was the show I saw in Sydney at the Capitol Theatre on 29 May 1980, my very first concert ever! To say the light show was unbelievable was an understatement. The video does it no justice. Gary was totally amazing, the concert was one of the best ever brought to Australia at the time. To hear the songs live that I'd played to death at home was incredible. The support act was also very good. It was James Freud and the Radio Stars, later known as James Freud and Berlin. James later went on to be a part of very successful Australian band, 'The Models.' Sadly James died as a result of suicide in Nov 2010. I believe Gary and James struck up a great friendship as a result of the tour and talk of a collaboration, was in the wind afterward. Sadly this never occurred.
Tremendous comment and thank you for that. James Freud was a fantastic Musician and I remember him playing in "The Models" and what an incredible Aussie band they were indeed! Such a collaboration would've been amazing though! Have a good New Year Gary!
what an era of great music...AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL...
Fantastic. Thanks for all the effort you put in and for uploading this. A real treasure.
Thank you. I am still human.
1979!!!!!!!! We will always love you Gary
