    I love the pixelation effects. For 1986, that's pretty cool.

    People complain about Gary Numan's voice, but his songwriting is
    very underrated, he's an excellent song writer.

      Michael Davis He didn't write this version of the song

      No he didn't.The version he DID write was a LOT better,proving what an amazing songwriter he actually is...

      I like the way his voice sounds. Its very unique. Thats what really drew me into Gary's music in the first place.

      @@stuart38 Although I'm a passionate Numan fan, Gary didn't write this song; it was written by Bill Sharpe and Roger Odell. I've known Bill and Shakatak personally for quite a few years (they are lovely people and really good fun to be with); the song was written several years before the Strange Charm album but Bill adapted it to be conducive to Gary's needs. The lyrics in the video are Roger's but the lyrics used on the album issue are Gary's. I prefer Roger's lyrics but I think both versions are good. There's a brilliant set of interviews by Stephen Roper (Numan Arms) with. various artists and engineers who've worked with Gary, particularly those in the eighties; Bill is one of the interviewees and he briefly talks about the making of the record.

    New thing from London Town
    Refugees of broken sound
    The sound of breathing and crying hearts
    This situation tears me apart
    The new police will find me soon
    I can't hide inside this room
    I'm waiting for the boys to come
    Then we can move out one by one
    [Chorus]
    New thing from London Town
    New thing from London Town, whoa, whoa, whoa
    Whoa, whoa, whoa

    Excellent Image, good video, although the robot why was it on 3 foot tall! Anyway the bassline for this track if you listen closely to the previous Change Your Mind single specially the extended version it's the same bassline in places.

    What in the hell is even going on in this music video? Just walking through a foggy building looking like a bleach blonde cenobite while a robot munchkin patrols about..
    Still love the song though haha my favorite from the Numan+Sharpe collabs.
