You pretty sum up how Numan is for me, gets me inside like no other artist, he's just a chorus machine! Out of the three so far this is my favourite, that chorus is just insane!
Gary Numan is unbelievable live, cannot wait for the next live gig, seen him many times and his shows are out of this world 🔥 love watching your channel 👍🏻
It's been a long time since I haven't enjoyed a song so much!!! This man is amazing!!! He is 63 years old and creates this music!!! I can't stop listening to it!!! 💪😎💕🔊
Hahaha! Urged you not to overlook reviewing this one, and here we are - the best of the three in my view. But the 'chair-spin moment' at 6:14 as the chorus kicks in? Epic! And exactly how it hit me too. Keep up the great work. 👍
Good evening Uk here Numan fan since 79 till now I love your feedback and honest reactions brilliant and he's so underrated keep up the excellent work KGB
Hopefully u caught Gary on tour through the USA right now. I saw him in Orange County, CA. 2/27/22. I have a few clips on my channel. But there is a great video of the full show out there too. Gary is a bucket list legendary musician that any music fan (mainly of his music) 1000% absolutely must see live in their lifetime. He just turned 64 like 5 days ago. The sets are looking to be basically identical each night, so catching at least one show will be excellent. His encore in Orange County was only 2 bitchin songs… “Me! I Disconnect From You” &. “Prayer for the Unborn”. Love both of those songs a lot. I would marry them if I could.. 😂😍😆Viva La GenerationX😎
So Gary has 2 things going on which makes his song writing unique. He has asburgers ( not sure I spelled it correctly) and he has a different method for writing and arranging songs. Watch his alien in LA documentary.
Gary Numan is a musical genius and just keeps delivering, anyone who hasn't seen him live should put this on their bucket list and go and see him while you still can. This new stuff is awesome but add to this his back catalogue including the best song ever written Prayer For The Unborn and you have a legend at work!
Awesome review. And exactly how I felt buddy. I've been numan fan forever. Used to go to his concerts in the 80s. Oh and he's 63 not 62. You've got a new subscriber here. 😉👍
It's really cool that you youngster's love this Genius Gary Numan. I was in High School when he came out. Always a Gary Numan fan his daughter is pretty amazing also.
This song, the words, the way he does the chorus ... how can you not love this? I became a fan of Gary in 2000, with Pure. I knew who he was before, just wasn't into it. He's beyond words.
Awesome review . Respectful and Enthusiastic .Been a Numan Nut for 4 Decades Now So Great to Hear The Credit this Man deserves .Thumbs up to you Jeffery .
Been a Numanoid sice 79 and never stopped... I almost fell by the wayside at "machine and soul" but thankfully didn't. God I need Intruder to be released YESTERDAY! Gary has never drank or smoked... that may be one answer as to how can he do this at 62. You NEED to see him live
He has gotten used to drinking (steadily and healthily) and he does it sometimes before he goes out onstage. Drug culture has never really been Gary's thing thankfully.
@@ryanhunter226 That's something I didn't think he did. Still what with being a father, a husband snd touring it's hardly surprising he has the odd drop now 😁
Spot on. And what you describe as this "illumination" to me is a feeling of completely unleashing my soul. Like the 12 yo screaming :"Hell yeah." And the 53 yo now nodding: " I know, glad we were right and still are". Empowering. Maybe I send you some if my stuff to react to. Gotta work on it. To be up there, somehow......
I'm a Numanoid since 1980 and worship the ground he walks on. That said, ONE of the reasons his last four albums have been so, so, SO damned good is because he's working with producer Ade Fenton. Gary writes the song and the lyrics and lays down some guide music tracks, and then hands it over to Ade Fenton to put the polish on the product - and it's a PERFECT combination of skills. Ade put out his own album about a decade ago and Gary sang on four tracks. I suggest you check out the Ade Fenton track "Healing" (featuring Gary) so you can get an idea of exactly where Ade comes from, musically. There's a great video for it here on TH-cam.
Absolutely loved seeing him in Austin back in March '22. My first time seeing him live. It was great. I have the cd (bought at the show) but also ended up buying the album on red double vinyl. I bug my coworkers almost daily about how cool he is (they are in denial).
I'm 28 and love Numan, have been listening for years since I found his Exile album. Instead of getting softer in his older years, he got heavier and darker. Simply the best.
Heard of you through the "Monster Sauce" review. Dude, yes...that Gary Numan song is killer! That said, I really dig the style of the reviews you're doing. Excellent sense of humor, and great presentation! Will be tuning in more. :-)
Loving your reactions to a legend I have been a fan off since I was a child. Getting ready for school and our friends electric comes on the radio. Oh the memories.
Just found this. I love seeing music analysis content makers from what I would consider "outside" of Numan’s usual sphere of influence discovering and appreciating Gary Numan’s music. I have been a fan of Mr Numan’s since he hit our airwaves in late ‘79 and there really isn’t anyone like him out there. I consider his music to be a genre all its own as it doesn’t cleanly fit in any existing box. That makes it hard, IMO, for his music to find new ears. I’m glad it found yours, sir.
Another new subscriber form the UK here. Great video and I echo what you are saying about the chord progression and Numan's vocals which I feel have got stronger as he has got older having been a fan from the start. Laughed out loud at the extract at the end of the video with you miming to Numan at full volume.
Love Numan. One of the high points of my life is seeing Nine Inch Nails in 2008 in London and having Trent introduce Gary on stage and then do Metal & Cars. SO good :)
Jeffery, you really need to roll back the Numan Library as far back as his Exile albums. Check Out videos and songs such as The Fall, Crazier, Rip and allow yourself to see some of his live stuff, such as the concert at the Hollywood Forever Cometary. Your head will explode. I look forward to your reactions to those cuts.
Check out the song off Intruder called “Is This World Not Enough”. Oh yeah Gary is hitting the states in sept & oct 2021. I have my tickets to 3 shows in SoCal. I hope you make to a show near you
I really enjoyed your reviews of Intruder and Saints and Liars. This one especially. You're saying what I've been saying for years. Keep up the awesome work. I filmed him performing an early work of Intruder at Sheffield Academy, UK in 2019 which is on TH-cam too :)
Jeffery, ha Gary Numan Tour rolled into your area? Did you get to see his show yet. Went to Boston and his show is EPIC. LOUD TOO! Awaiting your review...

I sometimes run into people that say Gary Numan doesn't have a great singing voice. So I send them a link to Saints And Liars and that usually convinces them that they misjudged him :)
Ok, if you love animals, listen to the song If We Had Known. Gary Numan is a animal lover and advocate along with his wife and kids. This song reduces me to tears every time I listen to it. It's beautiful. About his dog who died unexpectedly. Let me know what you think!
Are you in the midwest? Oh you have never seen Gary live........ WOW are you in for some major ear candy!! I have been a fan since 1980 and have seen over 30 shows.

Just love your reviews thank you . I’ve been here since 79 but still loving what he’s doing . I’m generally pleased with the 3 songs and especially the drum loop and power on this track
He is a Genius..I'm 62 too and have been a fan of his music since 79 ..his gigs are AMAZING ...you feel the music in your being.
Couldnt agree more

We Numanoids are everywhere! And yes we support most of everything he does!
It's been a long time since I haven't enjoyed a song so much!!! This man is amazing!!! He is 63 years old and creates this music!!! I can't stop listening to it!!! 💪😎💕🔊
Gary Numan is my favorite musician of all time

Yep, me too. I'm a man in his 50s and I reacted just like that.
I think this album will be my fave yet.
Having said that please go way back to this first Tubeway Army album.
Jo the Waiter is pure class.
Absolutely loving your Gary Numan track reviews. Hope you can do a full album review in May.
Good evening Uk here Numan fan since 79 till now I love your feedback and honest reactions brilliant and he's so underrated keep up the excellent work KGB
I recommend When the World Comes Apart from Savage. The mix is amazing!
Great song. I love The Promise on Savage. Lots of great songs on Savage though

I became a fan of Gary in 2000, with Pure. I knew who he was before, just wasn't into it. He's beyond words.
Actually, it started in 97, with Dominion Day
Another belter from Mr Numan. Intruder album out on 21 May ! Life is just getting better and better !! NNNNUUUMMMAAANNNN
Thank you. Great review. Do yourself a huge favour and go see him live. He’s awesome. Seen him countless times. You will love it. X
Brilliant man. Loved your reviews on Numans stuff. Been a fan since 79 and feel he gets better each year. Well done 👏✔
Awesome review . Respectful and Enthusiastic .Been a Numan Nut for 4 Decades Now So Great to Hear The Credit this Man deserves .Thumbs up to you Jeffery .
Appreciate your honest opinion... welcome to the Numan Family :-)
The Intruder album is going to be a doozy. I've got a good feeling about this one.
Feeling affirmed.
I feel the same way. My favorite track on this record
Been a Numanoid sice 79 and never stopped... I almost fell by the wayside at "machine and soul" but thankfully didn't.
God I need Intruder to be released YESTERDAY! Gary has never drank or smoked... that may be one answer as to how can he do this at 62. You NEED to see him live
I did fall by the wayside after machine&soul. Picked him back up at Pure - so glad I did.
He has gotten used to drinking (steadily and healthily) and he does it sometimes before he goes out onstage. Drug culture has never really been Gary's thing thankfully.

It's an absolutely awesome song from one of the iconic innovators of early 80s music
Subscribed dude....love your reactions to the amazing 'Gary Numan'!!
Did you know that this album was inspired by Echo's poem Persia and Raven do guest vocals.
Followed him since 79 and you’re right he’s amazing. Btw I’ve met him on numerous occasions too and he’s an incredibly lovely down to earth guy
Another new one out!
I to can't wait to see Gary again. I saw him live at Trees in Dallas Texas a few years back.
Love Numan. One of the high points of my life is seeing Nine Inch Nails in 2008 in London and having Trent introduce Gary on stage and then do Metal & Cars. SO good :)

Try listening to Gary's We are so fragile from Tubeway army REPLICAS album Well worth it
Gary Numan may have given me the idea of playing the same notes on synth as the singing melody. It's a fun technique.
My favorite of the three dropped so far. Oh, yes I'm getting this day one. And not just 'cause he's a fellow aspie.
Awesome video. Well done, from a fellow Numanoid. 😊👍
Jeffery, ha Gary Numan Tour rolled into your area? Did you get to see his show yet. Went to Boston and his show is EPIC. LOUD TOO! Awaiting your review...

It's even better on vinyl
Have a look up on Freak like me! a variation on Are friends Electric another one to look into, in US used by break dancers in 1978/9

great-you are great White Guy!
Wait till you see him live. Its even bigger.
Numan numan numan
He’s definitely found his voice as a singer. Now he croons like Morrissey.
Some throw drop the mic. You drop the headphones.
Been a fan since 1979 and still a fan till i pop my clogs
He's 64, actually 😆
Try ME by Gary
I love the way you articulate its spot on 👍 check out I am dust, I just wanna see how you react

People who tell dad jokes are Saints those who don’t like them are liars.
