Hey Rain! Check this out.

I've been going through my Gary Numan stuff and forgot how good some of it is (most people only know his older synth stuff like Cars).  Now forget about that song and check out the one below - I know who it reminds me of!  Hard to believe it's the same guy.

    I think you'd like his whole Exile album too.

    Great stuff right there! Thanks! I'll have to check that album.
     
    I have to admit I'm not all that familiar with him. The piece of music of his I know best is this cover:

    And THAT is exactly who I thought of when I was listening to Bleed.

    Hi,
     
    I have the live album that was supposed to be his last ... I think early 80's ... don't remember and they are on a Space Pirate Radio show. And also an album of his before that. 
     
    Not really impressed, but it was nice!

    Music is not about notes and chords! My poem is not about the computer or monitor or letters! It's about how I was able to translate it from my insides!

    I quite like Gary Numan's old stuff too. I was amused to find out a few years ago that his image was an accident related to acne. From Wikipedia:
     
    Around this time, Numan also developed his style. According to Numan, this was an unintentional result of acne; before an appearance on Top of the Pops, he had "spots everywhere, so they slapped about half an inch of white makeup on me before I'd even walked in the door. And my eyes were like pissholes in the snow, so they put black on there. My so-called image fell into place an hour before going on the show".[12] His "wooden" stage presence was, in his words, a result of extreme self-consciousness and lack of "showmanship"

    Interesting.  Never knew that!  And, yes, I've always liked his old stuff.
