2024? Was looking through all my Gary Numan albums 12 inch’s , singles etc.. ❤Gary has returned to making music in the most amazing way!! I luved him when I was 12 and 44 yrs later nothing will ever change .. Gary your brilliant!! Luv LA 🇨🇦🎹🎶
Underrated, underappreciated album. Every song is great. I love the tribal, organic feel. The densely layered Linn drum + CR78 programming. Great stuff.
I wasn't a fan of this album. After the understated style of Paul Gardiner & the excellence of Pino Palladino, I thought Joe Hubbard's bass was just too much. I saw him on this tour at Hammersmith which was my first and it was a good concert but this album is there with Fury and Machine & Soul as rather forgettable.
Why has every song got a comment about this unique wildly creative and authentic artist being ‘under rated’ ?! He seems to be extremely successful with a loyal following going back decades!!
because he's not well recognized. Everyone knows 'Cars', but not his other songs. He literally pioneered a new genre in music, but not many people know this. They just throw him in with everyone else 80s
@@josephkissel6062 it's really not that strange as when most people hear 'Cars' or even Tubeway Army's 'are friendselectric' I think they think of the 80's even though they were 1979releases I know i do being a wee boy in the earliest of the1980s🔥🔥 🎹🔥🎹🔥🎹🔥
@@tadhgkilcummins I'm reading your linked review of this period and enjoying it - I didn't know there was an unheard Nelson mix and an unseen professional shot of the Warriors tour concert. The record is a mixed bag but the title track is a complete triumph as far as I'm concerned! Ok, I see it's on the list of top singles as well...
Wow, didn't even you we're married with children,until now, CONGRATULATIONS, Oh and that's impressive that you have a pilots license. And for being in the music industry for 40 YRS,. 🤯 CONGRATULATIONS FOR ALL OF IT, ESPECIALLY FOR THE MUSIC, THANKS.
I don't see whats wrong with this album. Pop fans are fickle, diversity is the spice of life and Mr Numan has never failed "in my opinion." I've loved all his work. Conventionalism can be sooooo limited.
And here we see Gary Nu man, doing all that in a Lockheed trainer jet lmao. The training distinction markings really do kinda vibe with the song though ngl.
It's not that it was a bad album per se, but his transition from a rock basis to a funk basis alienated a lot of fans, including myself. Pretty much all the synth pop pioneers wandered off into the long grass as the 80s progressed with the exception of Depeche Mode. It's different looking back on a career over decades to actually being there when a new album comes out and you're like, "not sure about this at all".
Maybe his most mature album musically , i think the image took a bit away from the music , he should have stayed with a bit more alien replicas looking
Honestly he has the same style and that's why I like his new and old stuff. Maybe someone can do a remix of his current stuff and just add funky bass lol
The best electro-pop ever made. I only knew the "standards" from Gary Numan and just recently became interested again in hearing what else he did apart from "Cars" etc. Loving it!
so gone back to the eighties, best move ever, don't follow the fashion gary, do what you do best, now drop the jazzy stuff and go back to tubeway army :)
Pretty naff video to watch these days but I love the song. Before the hate I have love Gary since for ever went to see him I Manchester last year 2022 part of my bucket list.
He was never out of box to become a pilot of power craft... No shitty Cessna... Along with Bruce Dickinson... These 2 were ahead of the crowd in the genre of sex d and r and r... Respect..🙌
He has flown his own Harvard / AT-6 / Texan / SNJ at airshows as far back as the 1980s. This T-33 Silver Star / Shooting Star was owned and piloted by one Ormond Haydon-Baillie and appeared on the airshow circuit for several years into the late 1980s.
This is a mystery that has perplexed many an old-skool Numan fan for years. He's always chosen some dodgy images or themes at times, but his was one of the worst. His hair loss was really starting to show, and why he chose this very cheezy Mad Max look I'll never know, although I suppose it was trendy at the time. What made it worse though, was the fact that Mad Max was a really grungey, scrappy character, but Numan's "version" was way too clean looking, with just-out-of-the-wrapping leathers and a so-obvious fake tan. Cringe factor 10. I like most of the Warriors album, and many of the non-album Warriors era tracks, but it was the end (for me), as he'd started to really lose his way / focus, hence this weirdly disconnected video / song.
@@nickcarroll5034 Actually, I agree, it was the image that sucked, and I did like many of the songs in the album and b-sides. I do maintain though, that for me at least, this was the last album I paid any attention to, other than a track or two on Outland.
It could have worked had the music been darker and the videos more like what he'd do for the Pure album. Either way this era for Gary was pretty cool musically. Haven't heard anything like it before.

Always a thumbs up for a fellow Numanoid
💙❤️
"I fell for so long for you ... " and no bottom in sight! The chorus of "Warriors" still gives me chills and the verses are obscure and beautiful ...
Not only can he write cool music but he races cars and fly's vintage airplanes. Go Gary go!
Still here in 2024, love you Gary 🖤
the old music is simply a work of lyric art.
Simply one of the most naturally gifted artists ever to have lived and some how still remain ahead of our time and endlessly COOL 💜
So true.
Timeless. Really.
Got that right.
Underrated, underappreciated album. Every song is great. I love the tribal, organic feel. The densely layered Linn drum + CR78 programming. Great stuff.
Excellent
Numan still hates the CR-78 (for programming reasons in the past) , but in my opinion the CR-78 is still the greatest drum machine ever made.

The 80's would never have been complete without Mr.Numan 🎹🔥🎸🎹🔥🎸
Strangely, for what he did in the 70s ! Always ahead of his time!

🎹🔥🎹🔥🎹🔥
flys own jet in video, ultimate flex.
My favourite song of the 1980s. Top 20 in Britain, "Warriors" should have been a massive hit around the world. Things rarely get this cool.
Don't forget was also a top 20 hit in Ireland as well 🤘🏻
That bass sound ! 👍👍👍👍
I just saw a video interview with Joe Hubbard where he talked about replacing Pino Palladino on the Warriors album. Both are incredible bassists!
I bought the extended (vinyl) version of this in 1984 and played it over and over in my dorm room. Back when it wasn't so easy to loop a song!
was it the 7:30 version ? I only discovered that on the CD reissue
Numan so great loved his stuff since tubeway army
Brilliant... forty years later, as the world once again feels like it's right on the brink of destruction, this feels just as vital as ever!
very under rated song from a very under rated album
I love the sound of the album. Especially the bass.
Agreed, perfect bass Ultravox-ish guitar and you can dance to it
Dunno about that

The Tick-Tock Man was a stand out track.
@@michaelanderson3696 I like this prison moon aswell
Love the atmosphere that this create around me
Pure nostaliga
@@michaelbonica5309 absolutely
Remember this video back in 1983
I bought a lot of Numan on vinyl from op-shops in the 90's. Serious pop.
Our been an archivist since 1979 and I've never seen this.
Way cool, indeed 😎
Brilliant song from a brilliant album
Debatable

And for being in the music industry for 40 YRS,.
🤯
CONGRATULATIONS FOR ALL OF IT,
ESPECIALLY FOR THE MUSIC, THANKS.
i didn't care for I, Assassin, and stoped there...totally missed out on this gem, until tonight!
Brilliant song I remember rushing in to to town too buy this on 12"
Danke das es dich gibt deine Musik ist echt gut 🥰🥰🤘🤘
Amazing Gary Numan looks good.

Nice Video...Pilot Numan
My brother had a picture disc version of this.. such an awesome song
Finally catching up with your back catalogue!! Keep em coming...
I've never understood why this album was so derided - I thought it was a masterpiece.

This is a great track. Sister Surprise is my fave.
I am a Numanoid. 80's Gary is my jam. Not too crazy about his NIN sound .
Honestly he has the same style and that's why I like his new and old stuff. Maybe someone can do a remix of his current stuff and just add funky bass lol
pleasantly surpised at all the positive comments, iwas under the impression this era was not well liked even by fans. i love it though
Before Top Gun there was Gary Numan
A fan from day one.
Radio 1 abandoned him but the fans didnt .
The best electro-pop ever made. I only knew the "standards" from Gary Numan and just recently became interested again in hearing what else he did apart from "Cars" etc. Loving it!
O solos de teclado das músicas de Gary são maravilhosos. 🎼🎧🎧🎼
Super artiste qui traverse les années sans prendre une ride
🎶Here on my plane, I go safest of all🎶
I saw that quoted here
museumhead.wordpress.com/2020/09/12/into-battle/
Ahahahaha spot on! I can lock all my doors! Its the only place safe in planes!
Lol
He's a popstar but he's also got a pilot's license. Imagine that.
He flies WWII era airplanes and does acrobatics.
Don't talk to me about Gary Numan.
Bruce Dickinson
Sort of like Michael Dorn; being an actor that became a pilot and even flew for an airline, I believe.
@@stevetheduck1425 john denver had a pilot's license. Unfortunately it didnt end well. Love the numanoid.
Gary invented music
The Gary Numan of Steely Dan records
Very pretty T-33, 💜.
Killer track and video.
❤❤❤
Mr Gary rules everytime
This owes a lot to Bill Nelson (legend)
Certainly the guitarwork is , but Nelson could never come with a chorus like this
Awesome,Thanks Gary!
I really miss flying, VFR with MSFS has just been awesome, even with its bugs. I wonder if Garry misses it.
I LOVE AIRCRAFT ELECTRONIC MUSIC ELECTRONICS SCIENCE FICTION BOOKS AND MOVIES AND OF CAUSE THE MUSIC OF GARY NUMAN
I love the video the music and the classy style Gary Has yeah 😍🌹💗🌻🛩🎵
Best song from the album and stands up to his work from that period. Sounds amazing on 12" maxi-single if you have a good set up. Production is epic.
-{ Bad Hearth Passing out ]-
I fall down, no control some how
slick walls slide down
Effort abyss deadness sound
I hope I can climb out
@Miss Sarah N. Hammond of NZ. A poorly-made fire??
This is it
Went to see the tour back in the day

Lets fly ...
Best track on the album and My Centurion.Not destroyed by Saxaphone
Really?
It was a divicisive era
museumhead.wordpress.com/2020/09/12/into-battle/
Gazza's ' Klaus Kinski ' phase .Not his best look , but the 'Warriors' l.p is a vastly under rated Numan gem .
i didnt know this song had a music video!!
Been following him since 1979
Neither did i
remember it at the time it was shit and still is
BAD...ASS...!!!!! 💛 So envious...
I fell for so long for you all....
He was never out of box to become a pilot of power craft... No shitty Cessna...
Along with Bruce Dickinson... These 2 were ahead of the crowd in the genre of sex d and r and r...
Respect..🙌
Damn this album is good.
Questionable

@@tadhgkilcummins come on it's much better than the crap he releases now that is trying desperately to sound like NIN
Numan is just 2 weeks ahead of my birth parents. 2 years old here in 1984.....dam time has flown...
WAIT HE LOOKS REALLY GOOD BLONDE I NEVER NOTICED
I fell for so long for you all...
I Wear that same outfit to Tesco's
So cool
Too cool..
Bill Nelson on guitar?
Can we appreciate the music video effort
We can
Nice
Чистокровная Новая волна.
Awesome. Where are his Yaks?
The Talking Head's took the final second sounds for their song Burning Down The House 1983
Omg wow .cheers x
Chuck Norris went blonde when he saw this video.
Lol
Looking for something? Destroyer abides.
This was the 80s. 8 years before Janet jacksons rhythm nation.
Britain's Got Talent
Has anyone seen the video to I can't stop it,he's flying in that aswel.
This is when Gary disappeared up his own arse. I was a fan from the start, singles and albums, Concerts, up til Warriors.
I read that the actual jet in the video crashed and was written off some time ago. Not sure if there were any fatalities though.
Looks like the neophyte alien has chosen to be a "Beach Boy" instead.
One of my my favourites, is he really flying this aircraft???
Wait does Gary have a type rating in P-80????
He has flown his own Harvard / AT-6 / Texan / SNJ at airshows as far back as the 1980s.
This T-33 Silver Star / Shooting Star was owned and piloted by one Ormond Haydon-Baillie and appeared on the airshow circuit for several years into the late 1980s.
Before Tom Cruise:)
Gary was an inventor for modern day synthersisers. Didn't he crash his plane once/
You got to wonder why the audio in this video is MONO.
I think MJ borrowed this for Speed Demon.
100% Japan sound, and not (only) because of Mick Karn on bass
Joe Hubbard on bass. Mick Karn played on the Dance album.
@@user-qf4zs6qj4c And Pino Palladino on I,Assassin. But i prefer for the Numan's music Paul Gardiner lines instead the funky slapping on a fretless.
What is happening in this video? Why is he flying a plane while dressed like Mad Max?
Because he can. I mean..... wouldn't you if you could ? Thought he looked more Roy Batty myself 😂

its all Bill Nelson though innit

What plane is that
I'd guess that is a Lockheed T-33, the two-seater version of F-80 Shooting Star. A classic Kelly Johnson design from the 1950s.
@@AnssiRauhala cool looking jet
I was given a joy ride in a T-33 "Tweet" in 1972. The pilot whistled whilst pulling 5.5 Gs. My vision went grey.
