    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. 😁🇺🇸👨🏻‍🦳🇺🇸🎸🇺🇸🎶🇺🇸🎹🇺🇸🥁🇺🇸

    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.

  • @VelcroKittie
    @VelcroKittie 11 месяцев назад

    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.

He was surrounded by goodness knows who and bungled into a car which drove away at speed. None of us respected hm after that.
