I must admit it was this song that brought me back into the fold as a numanoid. After the late 80's and early 90's I'd kinda drifted away but when I heard this on karrang I nealry died it was so fuckin awesome. I went out and got the album along with exile and have never looked back. THANK YOU GARY
we were all waiting for a glimmer of the old.Lost faith late 80's. By accident caught a review of Pure on the internet somewhere. Was so glad there was something new and meaningful to grab hold of. Since then, an upward spiral.
Maybe besides Are Friends Electric, I much prefer everything Gary wrote from around 1994 forward. His music transformed into such powerful and moody songs, dark, brooding, poetic and hauntingly beautiful!! Can't get enough!!
This was the song on Kerrang! That made me realise Gary Numan has reinvented himself to be awesome! I used to listen to this on repeat as a kid, over and over when i recorded the video on Sky Digital lol
I have been a huge Industrial Metal fan for years and I really think Gary meeting Trent Reznor resurrected Gary's passion for heavy music and I know Trent was very influenced by early Gary numan material. I must say I have been so impressed with his later music and saw him live in spring 2022...it was phenomenal. When he played Pure I went nuts.....
When I first heard Gary human in the 1970s it was as if he was from the future with his hypnotic music and even forty years later it's as if thes in the driving seat of the future.
Ignoring the incorrect description for a sec, I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for this one, because this was the song my best friend re-introduced me to Gary with. I hadn't heard any of his post-70s stuff and was instantly hooked on the darker style.
Gary has reinvented himself big time. His move to the u.s.a. has inspired him and made him very musically creative. He's producing his best music ever now.
I wish Gary Numan had a universal logo. Like Nine Inch Nails - NIN, or HiMs - Heartagram (which has completely transended it's meaning and taken on a life of its own in pop culture, but that's another story, which will be told at another time) so that I could get it tattooed on me somewhere. Coz Gary's entire music catalogue is like the language of my soul.
There is the Banner Repeater/Shunting disc symbol from Tubeway Army. There's also The Pleasure Principle Pyramid/Triangle. There's also the "Exile Spider" as I like to call it.
sometimes it seems a bit like Numan and Reznor swapped styles somewhere along the line, with Reznor moving more towards minimalistic electro tunes and numan getting more aggro heavier and complex. Not complaining in either side, but I still think it would be fookin amazing if they both worked on a project together, especially if it was a more involved concept sort of creation. just like if they were able to put everything else aside (minus families of course) and throw every bit of anger and frustration and pain together as a cathartic maelstrom. ...yeah... that might be pretty cool, lol ^_^
I was just a baby when Gary Numan first made a name for himself. It wasn't until this album came out (me then in my early 20s) that he truly grabbed my by the heart and brain stem. Ive been a huge fan ever since.
Newman transcends time His stuff continues to be cutting edge and his concerts have been second to none. I wish more people could be exposed to this guy, just brilliant.......
Yes! This is the moment that Gary found his old "spark" of genius. I remember seeing it at the number one position on an old rock tv music channel (who's name escapes me right now). But this was 'Pure' genius! So good to see Gary relevant again. This stuff marries perfectly as a transgression from his early classic stuff. And that Matrix coat. And those boots. Memories of walking down Oxford Street fulling decked out the same with my dyed black hair and guyliner. Happy daze. Gary your deserved appreciation from joe public started here.
I'll get down on my knees I'll do anything I can I'll even walk upon water Ill give somebody disease I'm so sick with need I'm so sick with pain I'll lay before the cross and pray I'll bleed like holy rain Ive gotten sick of the pain Oh dear I pray HEY HEY HEY I've done nothing to you HEY HEY HEY I've got something for you I'll rip the skin from God's face I'll say I'm searching for the truth I steal the light from heaven's gates If it can guide me to you I'll give life to obsession I'll give life to disease I'll give you one last sin or cure And then I'll do as I please HEY HEY HEY I've done nothing to you HEY HEY HEY I've got something for you
Numan in reise reise style. Hello, dear friend, always electric. You'll always be a piece of my heart, since uncle Jess' days. Bombers always fly high.
Gary has been gone fully industrial since 2000. Pure and Jagged are dark industrial album. Along the way, he reduces the darkness in his album. I feel his newest album goes to romantic industrial. I'm not complaining since I support musician who keeps challenging himself to make different album each time.
It's wonderful to see the genre go full circle. He inspired so many, it's amazing to see him pay homage to that legacy. Can there be any doubt this is a friendship letter to Trent Reznor?
I keep listening to it day after day. It's cathartic. It's like watching Dark City for the first time and knowing this should have been part of its soundtrack.
Ahh, I miss this aesthetic for sure...say why dont I see anyone wearing New Rock platforms anymore anyways? Are shiny pleather trench coats out too? Fuck where've I been that things'av changed so...OH DEAR GOD PASTEL GOTH?!?!? What is this madness?!
Brilliant Song. Brilliant musician. Brilliant atmosphere. Brilliant times. Brilliant memories. Brilliant Icon.
Yes! and Yes! and Yes! and Yes! and Yes! 😁
This goes to show ... a WHISPER can be pretty damn HEAVY and as powerful as a scream!

He's working on a new one right now, follow him on Facebook if you don't already
Same with me after Telekon I think he lost his way I've recently been listening to his stuff from 2000 onwards omg i can't believe i missed all this
me too. fell upon by accident . it was a track on the cd with an issue of uncut magazine
Oh I love that ! Numanoid.
I can't even!! This man is brilliant!! His music just elicits everything you can possibly feel, amazing!!
Well, I can’t odd! So there’s that.
The best performer ever. Totally astonishing 🖤⭐🖤
@@nixko2532 I second that!
👍😘👍.
I didn't even know gary numan did music like this until recently and its absolutely brilliant
I just found out last Sunday. He's a legend
If you think THIS is good (and it is!) you absolutely HAVE to check out his Splinter: Songs from a Broken Mind & Savage: Songs from a Broken World!

Saw your documentary...you are one hell of father and husband.
I never want gorgeous Gary to die I love him so so much
If I die you die, lol, 👻.
So glad I rediscovered Gary Numan. His music is incredible as well as his texts..

I love this. Omg I'm so glad I found this. I love this music so much.
Oh!!😍🤗❤ i love it!! Great Gary Numan!!
Listening to this for the first time in 2024 and absolutely love it. Beautifully vampire-like! Its turned me into a Numan fan!
After another dose of Gary Numan cheerfulness, I can go out and face the world with a smile.
Yeah there's nothing more uplifting than a dark, sombre bit of Garydustrial to make the world seem just that little bit brighter 🤣
Brilliantly Bleak & Terrifying tune. Love it.
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME GARY!! PURE GENIUS!!!👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Pure genius

How is the description incorrect?
@@cloudbloom I think they saw the upload date and thought that was the actual release date of the song.
@@sociocomm724 No, it used to have a description. Don't remember what it said though. It's been changed since 2 years ago.
OMG 🔥🔥🔥
I love it ! That song just rattled me inside. I can’t wait to get this album. Thanks Gary .
this is fucking unbelievable \m/
Absolute Tune 🤌🏽🔥🤌🏽
I love how the guitars blend with the synths to form a multidimensional sound
Never been much of a genre purist, I just love the way it sounds
👻, yep.
Gary has reinvented himself big time. His move to the u.s.a. has inspired him and made him very musically creative. He's producing his best music ever now.
He was always amazing in my opinion ❤️
That was after his wife introduced him
To Depeche Mode and Nine Inch Nails
He's still god
GARY is CLASS

This man is the absolute bomb ❤❤❤ his voice blows me away hes a god ❤
this is the best of gary numan since cars
I saw the RIP and though "Oh no! Gary just died! This is a tribute to him!" Glad I was wrong.
It is the song title
It’s the title song which you’d know if you were a fan
@@jeremyjolly3645 Nope. Kraftwerk does it for me. The originals.

Sounds like a lot of "industrial" music back then. Still good

Oxford Street London or Sydney? Because if it's Sydney there is a definite connotation!
Kerrang?
Maybe P-rock or scuzz TV?
@@nodbomb rip scuzz!
I saw it first on Kerrang. It blew me away. On my favourites playlist.
I'll get down on my knees
I'll do anything I can
I'll even walk upon water
Ill give somebody disease
I'm so sick with need
I'm so sick with pain
I'll lay before the cross and pray
I'll bleed like holy rain
Ive gotten sick of the pain
Oh dear I pray
HEY HEY HEY
I've done nothing to you
HEY HEY HEY
I've got something for you
I'll rip the skin from God's face
I'll say I'm searching for the truth
I steal the light from heaven's gates
If it can guide me to you
I'll give life to obsession
I'll give life to disease
I'll give you one last sin or cure
And then I'll do as I please
HEY HEY HEY
I've done nothing to you
HEY HEY HEY
I've got something for you
Thank you Gary!!!!! You're the beast, I mean best...ha. BEST!
HOT! Came out of his shell a bit since Cars...
I loved what he did..This is...cute....

Came straight here from radio 2. It was on the music police.
awesome.....love it
Strange how this song came out, just months before the pandemic, weird, but, Gary is just brilliant
The gift is about covid
This song was released in 2001. Do your research
@@68waddy 😆
@@68waddy I've got no 68 on my jersey today how weird is that, lol.
Uploaded in 2019. Song is from the early 2000s
The only way I enjoy this song: on max Vol.!

Wow wow another brill song
Bloody brilliant track. One of his best.
crazy good...I baught the album with Cars on it in HS...he has come so far from that album and that's hard to believe
I'm gently head banging to this song
It’s beautiful.
I did not realize that this was the same guy! Holy shit. He took the bridge of age and progression and made it his bitch!
He's been doing a new song at recent shows and it's pretty cool. I'm excited for a new GN album.
temazo! Grande Gary, gracias por tanto
Keep adding the vids Mr Webb!
He's fucking killing it right now.
Very queen of the dammed vibe..🖤
Genius forever
This is absolutely beautiful! Thank you, Gary.

Awesome!!!!
Tamoooo❤️❤️❤️❤️
Perfect 💯✨
Mr Newman, you absolutely never fail to impress and amaze me. Bought your first album in college. Been in love ever since. You the man.
Love it!!!
Unreal good.
Gary was trents inspiration he said so
Love this
❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤
🖤nice
Fantastic song and video 👽💙👌🏻
Gary at his best
Gary Numan morphing into Marilyn Manson fills me with joy
I Hate MM...for some reasons. Never ever compare Gary with MM again. Knucklehead
I like both. There are some minor similarities, but Gary is quite different though, in every way. I listen a lot more to Gary than Marilyn.
@@AnamCara1967 I mean, I did make this comparison last year before the dodgy shit became public so...
@@enny1260 I find Gary more Authentic than MM.
@@AnamCara1967 Have you not heard Marilyn Manson's cover for "Down in the Park"? 🙄
❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍🥂🥂🥂!!
when i first saw this song it had 666 likes, sort of creepy!!! now it has well over 800.
great song though
Now that I look, the video has 35,666 views! Yikes.
Fuck Yeah!
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌♥
Bad ass!
Topp
Muy bueno
Nice
God, honestly I was confused when I read the video title 😅
Me too....
We need a nin collaboration album their style is perfect and they soundedg reat live together this song sounds like its nin
🤘🤘🖤
Gary please come to my city Windsor Ontario Canada .And dont play at the casino
How to make Trent jealous of GN's genius
Trent and Numan are best buds. They influence each other clearly tremendously and have collaborated lots and just keep in touch as major friendos.
Here see this example czcams.com/video/ehMqEXUspfs/video.html
Ahh, I miss this aesthetic for sure...say why dont I see anyone wearing New Rock platforms anymore anyways? Are shiny pleather trench coats out too? Fuck where've I been that things'av changed so...OH DEAR GOD PASTEL GOTH?!?!? What is this madness?!
Гари Ньюман я ваш фанат!!!!!
