Cars came out when I was just 15 years young. I loved that song. I played it over and over and over again and again. Don't Stop Gary. You are too far ahead of your time...
i have followed you through all that you have done you must be the most underrated musicians ever your music is still played and i love your drive to make new music as a singer and songwriter my self you have the ability to keep changing and modernising music i'm just lacking making or creating the music for my songs as i'm epileptic i can't play instruments so i admire you and also your family watching them in the music industry just brilliant hope to see one of your shows soon
They seem a really good match and support one another. Marrige, make the right the right chocise and it will keep reinforcing itself, you end up pulling the same face expressions, joke voices and so on. I bet his wife is a schrewd business advisor as well as beingn fun. Like the honest real accents. Proper real people.
That's not really the case. Michal Jackson also was - in theory - broke at one point. Celebrities can have some huge debts (like taxes), but then a contract comes along, and they suddenly make 10 times what their "debt" was. He's exaggerating the situation, most likely to make it seem like his "superfan" wife isn't a gold digger.
Love Gary and his music. His wife Gemma looks great from a distance. Not sure if she has her own teeth or how much plastic surgery she has had compared to Gary.
What!!? Never felt talented... That guy is a GENIUS..! Raw, uncensored, dark, and serious. Nothing ive ever heard hits as hard as some of Garys songs. Blew my mind 😳
Awesome....i made their wedding rings....i didn't even recognise him until my employer pointed it out... love his music and especially his more recent stuff...it's pretty heavy and dark
I’m a 60-year-old white guy from Montgomery, Alabama, and I grew up to rock music way before the appearance of disco, and eventually, MTV. When this Gary Nueman track first hit the radio waves, I was in the 10th grade of high school (1979-80). That specific year was LOADED with rock hits, and this song by Gary Nueman will always have its place in my rock history. Whenever I hear those closing Moog synthesizers at the end, it still gives me such memories of that time and it gives goose bumps. 😁🇺🇸👨🏻🦳🇺🇸🎸🇺🇸🎶🇺🇸🎹🇺🇸🥁🇺🇸
Gary's music came up in my RUclips feed about 10 years ago and started playing next song in rotation automatically I thought who is this guy sounds wonderfully great been a huge fan ever since.
"Superfan wife"? She looks and behaves like a garden-variety gold digger. That story about debt is cute, but makes no sense. People like Gary Numan can get into temporary debt, but the royalties alone make them gold mines in the long run, not to mention signing contracts for millions...
I watched the documentary a few years ago about his move to the USA and his family trips. I got the impression that family life was a very positive effect for him, especially after his earlier experiences in life..
I grew up in the 50's and I live for music, it's the language of the Universe. When the song "Cars" came out I knew it was a song that would be played well into the future. Thanks Gary for adding this song to the Universe.
We're in the building where they make us grow and I'm frightened by the liquid engineers, like you. I loved Gary Numan, but Giorgio Moroder and Donna Summer recorded I Feel Love in 1976 released in 1977, way before "Cars". There was also the German pioneering group KRAFTWERK who Giorgio Moroder said influenced him. There are videos all over RUclips about the song I Feel Love, and it altered the course of music history. The song is still an influene on music, producers, remixers, and DJs. Most recently, Sam Smith recorded the song, and Beyonce sampled it. Deborah Harry/Blondie, Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and more, have performed the song. It is etherial and brilliant, and Donna Summer's voice is hypnotic and sensual and strong. I think, with I Feel Love, the vocals are part of the music, not more important, not less. Vocals and Music treated as equals, musically speaking, on the control board and recording the final project onto the Masters. Gary Numan, along with a lot of other people and groups who got to play early on with this new technology, and even the recording capabilities exceled around this tune too, which allowed for recordings that were rich and had depth of sound, and you could feel the music.
Been a Huge fan of Gary ever since I first heard "Are Friends Electric". My Girlfriend at the time, and I, were actually standing just in front of Gemma when Gary played at the V96 festival in Chelmsford. I didn't even recognise her. My Girlfriend pointed it out to me. It may have been a long and hard journey. But to survive in the music business for so long you do indeed have a remarkable talent.
Leicester De Montfort Hall with Tik and Tok. Remember that one Gary best gig of my life. I remember the lights dropping down into the audience and Tik and Tok,s robotics were amazing.
The caption on this video says something about his crippling debt.. Perhaps if you moved out of a castle in, LA. I'm just saying, cut a few corners. It's hard to live a certain life style when the check stop coming in.
What a decent guy he is. Grew up with electronic music and new wave in the 80s and love his music since them. Now for the first time I see the guy behind this epic music and it makes it even better. Lovely couple.
Gary helped form my early life. I attended a private boys college and a friend introduced me to what was then called New Wave, but when I heard Gary Newman my thoughts changed. I was a guitarist at the time and I saved and bought a synthesizer. I played Cars all the time!
There was a small bunch of misfits in my Massachusetts suburb that enjoyed his music so much.Then 30 years later he played live and my wife and I really enjoyed the show. 30 years + of music that delivers
Its thypical , beautiful woman always wanna look more and more beautifull ! Just be happy if youre partner like you as you are ! Didnt they had more interesting questions to ask ? Like wich bands garry like to see , wich songs he like the most , dos he have friends in other great bands ????
They have had troubles also great times thats whats lifes about ..also raising is it three children too adulthood..Being a rock star isn't a bed of roses its hard work deadlines working with crew & other bands who are supportive also stage / transport/other mangerment involved with tours / also the fans too just shows a musicians life can be a great adventure overall 🎉
How can anyone accuse Gary Numan as being an imposter? This man is a founder not an imposter. He managed to carve out a sub-genre all of his own that noone else could emulate.
I remember every Saturday a large group of us used to go down to the T.V studio in Birmingham to see if we could meet our favourite musicians that had just appeared on a morning show. 99% of the time the "stars" were friendly and happy to chat with us. but not Gary Numan, no one was disrespectful or pushy, yet we were shoved out of the way by Gary's entourage and shouted at to "back off," even though we were keeping our distance. He was surrounded by goodness knows who and bungled into a car which drove away at speed. None of us respected hm after that.
Gary numan is incredible Live, one of the best accurate shows I have ever seen. My son is 4, and he loves your music Gary, he sings along, watches hypnotised and really admires you.
Love this man ́s attitude and his music since 1985. Went from Spain to Holland to see his concert in Tivoli- Utrecht. About 300 persons in the venue. Clearly that the Dutch appreciate simple, one-dimensional songs by third-rate artists more than the music of this musical icon.
What, after some 15-20 years of fan admiration, it's unusual that he should meet with her more closely and develop a relationship? Come on, they are both human. And I love Gary, even if I though he was gay when i was 10.
Don't matter what you have if you have love you have everything but abit of cash helps. Loved your music back then and love it live now I wish you both the best of luck keep it coming mate.
Im going to re-do Cars... and call it "Guitar's"! I've been working on guitar shredding solos for this project for the last 5yr's..........I have to get this classic song & solo ready for public listening... and then you can sue me if you don't like it, but they''ll probably try and sue... because it'll all be shredding guitar solo's for a change...none of this automatic 🐂💩 by pushing One button, or guitar hero game's 💩,....just skill & knowledge of what real practice sounds like, when you practice with a metronome for speed & accuracy....bo short cuts!........Lol!
Garry is one of my great superstars of the 80ties , he was even adored in belgium ! He is not only the godfather of eletro pop , he is the emperor of synthesizers ! His voice is now much better . And live he is amazing. He is sommething else like the B 52's and adam ant , with there own style of music ... They never boring
Superb writer. I have his songs on quite a few of my playlists. Unique to the core, with a beautifully melancholic and dark twist. I realise people are surprised to hear Numan mention that he believes he's not talented, but it's likely how he feels within himself. Remember, he's the only one who gets to spend every waking hour around himself. As music fans, we merely listen to the end product and thoroughly enjoy it. Or we go to shows and see the crescendo of all the blood, sweat and tears. The view Numan has of himself where talent is concerned is inaccurate in my opinion, but his reasons for coming to this conclusion are likely as valid as you will find. A lot of musicians have a pretty low opinion of themselves and value other artists more. It's far more common than one might think.
![NIN: "Cars" with Gary Numan, London 7.15.09 [HD]](/img/1.gif)
Gary Numan is a criminally underrated musician. Just saw him live for my first time last night! A phenomenal show, a phenomenal musician and pioneer
Agreed. Saw him on this same 2024 tour, likely a week before you did. It was awesome.
Saw him in eventim london brilliant.❤
and that terrible hairpiece always makes me laugh 😁
My wife did not believe it was him when he came out singing with all his moves on the stage.
She had me second guessing myself.
Been a fan since 78.
This is proof, love is what holds life together ❤
Cars came out when I was just 15 years young. I loved that song.
I played it over and over and over again and again. Don't Stop Gary.
You are too far ahead of your time...
You Allways Deserve Gary!Its Outlook!Take care!
i have followed you through all that you have done you must be the most underrated musicians ever your music is still played and i love your drive to make new music as a singer and songwriter my self you have the ability to keep changing and modernising music i'm just lacking making or creating the music for my songs as i'm epileptic i can't play instruments so i admire you and also your family watching them in the music industry just brilliant hope to see one of your shows soon
It's amazing to me discovering his music and finding out how much better he has gotten with it.
I read his book and I recommend it to everyone.
I owe so much to this man’s music.
It was really nice how they met, even though it's said about the mom dying
They seem a really good match and support one another. Marrige, make the right the right chocise and it will keep reinforcing itself, you end up pulling the same face expressions, joke voices and so on. I bet his wife is a schrewd business advisor as well as beingn fun. Like the honest real accents. Proper real people.
Gary is a genius, we're covering cars in the band I share with my brothers!
How could he go broke? the mind boggles.
That's not really the case. Michal Jackson also was - in theory - broke at one point. Celebrities can have some huge debts (like taxes), but then a contract comes along, and they suddenly make 10 times what their "debt" was. He's exaggerating the situation, most likely to make it seem like his "superfan" wife isn't a gold digger.
Why did the interviewer have to bring up Jim
Interviewers are mostly heartless and single-minded.
That wig gary😅😅😅
1979 I just to hera you I wos 12 years old and no I am 58 years old my god ❤
Does he still fly planes ?
Cars was his worst track
Love Gary and his music. His wife Gemma looks great from a distance. Not sure if she has her own teeth or how much plastic surgery she has had compared to Gary.
Good morning Sri Lanka is much better.😅
Good Morning Indian😂😂😂😂
Mr.Gary- Please understand there're LITERALLY millions of us who will forever appreciate you.
Gary and Gemma. Two fantastic normal people, who seem to be lucky together.and gary´s musical talent is outstanding
What!!? Never felt talented... That guy is a GENIUS..! Raw, uncensored, dark, and serious. Nothing ive ever heard hits as hard as some of Garys songs. Blew my mind 😳
That's the flip side of the Dunning-Kruger effect: Really gifted and accomplished people often underestimate their own talent.
I love Gary's face after she said "I first met him when I was 12"
Visible gulp.
I grew up with Gary's music. Awesome to both of them.
Lovely man, lovely family. I wish all the best to him and his girls
I saw Gary Numan perform several times with Tubeway Army in Hammersmith in the 70s/80s and he was absolutely brilliant.
Awesome....i made their wedding rings....i didn't even recognise him until my employer pointed it out... love his music and especially his more recent stuff...it's pretty heavy and dark
He’s really matured as an artist
He's about to get a TON of royalties after Jungkook used his song with calven klein promo
Bet the presenter has dropped a few doves during his youth. 😁
This guy is awesome.. regardless of what he thought… super talented

Nice, real people. Great talent.

"Superfan wife"? She looks and behaves like a garden-variety gold digger.
That story about debt is cute, but makes no sense. People like Gary Numan can get into temporary debt, but the royalties alone make them gold mines in the long run, not to mention signing contracts for millions...
Are Friends Electric is the only song that had me immediately ringing the radio station asking who that was
I watched the documentary a few years ago about his move to the USA and his family trips.
I got the impression that family life was a very positive effect for him, especially after his earlier experiences in life..
Love their life story,fact he married a fan,so special.
Very special ❤they have a beautiful marriage 💕
That is awesome!
And they are both beautiful 💕✨
Wonderful people to see them so much happy . So much talent.
I grew up in the 50's and I live for music, it's the language of the Universe. When the song "Cars" came out I knew it was a song that would be played well into the future. Thanks Gary for adding this song to the Universe.
Our darling gorgeous gary is atheist
I've been to his home which is in fact a castle, Spent 3 nights there It's absolutely amazing!!!
he wears the loveliest wig 🤩
Gary Numan! Such an amazing talent here!Such a unique sound! He literally started the synth music for the 80s IMO
Cars in 1979 "The song of the future".
Cars In 2079 "The song of the future".
Beautiful couple and Gemma is absolutely stunning ❤
We're in the building where they make us grow and I'm frightened by the liquid engineers, like you.

Down to earth couple. Love gary his song cars 80s
One of my all time favorite artists....

that's not just a hair transplant ..its an Irish Jig
He looks fabulous.
I mean... he's wearing the most obvious wig of all time.
@@sratus and?
@@JulieRushworth-k4w lol
This interview sounds pretty harsh with the questions they asked but it was clear that these were the right questions. Great interview, great people.
Whoa, the newscasters aren't in the same place as each other!
Great interview.
He is fantastic.lovely family .💙
Leicester De Montfort Hall with Tik and Tok. Remember that one Gary best gig of my life. I remember the lights dropping down into the audience and Tik and Tok,s robotics were amazing.
Fantastic talented musician, love all his work past and present.
The Syrup is a bit odd to see though I must say!

To Mention jimmy saville was disgusting.
Loved his cameo in the Mighty Boosh, absolutely stole the episode for me
He composed two fantastic songs, "cars" and "are friends electric", and that was it, man. What a bizarre case. Just two friggin songs.
Its thypical , beautiful woman always wanna look more and more beautifull ! Just be happy if youre partner like you as you are !
Didnt they had more interesting questions to ask ? Like wich bands garry like to see , wich songs he like the most , dos he have friends in other great bands ????
They have had troubles also great times thats whats lifes about ..also raising is it three children too adulthood..Being a rock star isn't a bed of roses its hard work deadlines working with crew & other bands who are supportive also stage / transport/other mangerment involved with tours / also the fans too just shows a musicians life can be a great adventure overall 🎉
Talented or not, he found gold. And he is talented, as a writer and certainly a melody writer and soundscape creator.
I feel sorry for Gemma she’s a beautiful Soul. She does not need cosmetic surgery.
They seem like such awesome cool people
Last three albums splinter, savage and intruder are all fantastic
Gary i was always a fan and always will be , the gig with the skaparis orchestra brill.
Decline is made only by Media, radios, and music mafia industry.😢
garys music crosses time barriers and never goes out of style 😀❤
Love him. Tubeway Army❤
Nice. He really likes her. Its good to see.
I met them both in London years ago, lovely people
Cars got me laid so many times. Thank you Gary.
Only one comment? Two now!
That syrup is enough to depress anyone
How can anyone accuse Gary Numan as being an imposter? This man is a founder not an imposter. He managed to carve out a sub-genre all of his own that noone else could emulate.
Like Philip Oakey (The Human League) said Gary was at the right place at the right time and talented
He is just fantastic ❤
Gary is peter pan. What a love story. Gary is as or better today as he was in1978. Thank you Gary and Gemma
Remember him performing on SNL
41 years ago ???? damn, i am old too
Im 63. It does feel weird at times, but icky when i think about it. Otherwise, i keep going on

'Cars' is a classic!
Brilhante
American´s idea of what a castle should look like? That’s great! 🤣🤣🤣
