2023 how many are we still listening to this masterpiece? 🤩
May 24th 1979. And everything changed. Fifteen years old watching TOTP. I was completely mesmorised by Tubeway Armys performance of
"Are Friends Electric?" I hadn't seen or heard anything like it before. I bet that I didn't blink once.
It wasn't just a song, it was the future 🖤
I was 9, and transfixed...
@@TheBlueNomadThanks for your reply Nomad. I agree, people who weren't there could never appreciate how utterly revolutionary this track was. All the best buddy 🖤
Same here, I was 11, been a Numanoid ever since. I even got one of Gary’s old Polymoogs, this track got me into playing and collecting synths in bands in the 80’s and 90’s.
Watched Tubeway Army's performance on TOTP & the next day went to the record store & bought the 7" picture disc . 2nd favourite record of all time.
Anybody who says that pop music such as this isn't art of the highest order doesn't appreciate art
❤❤❤❤Music für die Ewigkeit.Hier in einem sehr schönen Extra Langen Mix.Das waren Zeiten damals,die Original Single von 5min 22sec mit schönem Cover habe ich noch.❤😂
I was 8 when this came out in 1979 and it blew me away then..Gary Numan and Tubeway Army were so underrated...this song is pure brilliance...so emotive
Same age/experience, it was so exciting
Saw the guys in 1979 in Germany! Superb gig on a superb stage! Remember all of it after 45 years! GREAT!!!
Thanks for sharing your memories Michael 🖤
A true masterpiece still makes my spine tingle Thank you Gary Numan for the best song in my lifetime
Goodness me this song is such a masterpiece
“Along came a Greyhound smoking a cigarette" 😂🤣
so now I'm alone , and I can think for myself.....and listen to this timeless masterpiece.... time after time!
And I think to myself this song goes on forever and I like it and it means everything to me.
Timeless...a true classic
"Are Friends..." still one of the most amazing songs ever.
Plus those last four lines ended-up defining everything...
Amazing and always will be for me - I'm now 63 but crazy about the are friends electric masterpiece 👍
@@michaelcartwright7171 I was born 17 years after Are Friends Electric was released and it is indubitably the purest definition of a masterpiece. The whole Pleasure Principle album is unbelievable.
Totally 100% agree. XxBorgdroidxX
Totally 100% agree xxx
40 years old I still remember every single word of this album 😶🌫️
44 years & the song still sounds great. The first record to have a true impact on the eletronica genre, even though Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, The Human League,Ultravox, Jean Michel Jarre..etc came before Numan. This is just my opinion as this was the first record i bought in this genre.
I feel that " Are Friends Electric " is a far superior song than the overplayed " CARS."
its kind of difficult :)
I love both but Friends is way better, no argument there.
Disagreed. All of Numan's work is equally good
@@chancerbox1935I didn't say Cars wasn't a good song it's just it's played to death and I like his other songs that don't get the Recognition like cars does, also if you ask the masses about Gary Numan which song they associate him with it will be cars. He has so many songs that are just as good.
I disagree! I think Cars is prettier than this song here
in my eyes as a composer of electronic music ( 14 albums vet ) this song blew my mind when i heard it mostly on repeat & i still listen to it 40 years later , thanks gary !!!!
Great job, brings back so many memories - never grow tired of any of Gary's music and i'm Now 50!
@ziyњ very cool to see this is enjoyed by the next generation,rock on world 👍👈♥️
@Ziyhb I’m 18 and I love this song too, gonna have to check out the rest of his stuff!
how lucky was I to see him live 1979 Wolverhampton civic hall
Same year for me in Glasgow ;-)
@@davehchannel4098 that night I went from a punk to futurist lol
@@user-cg7uw9uh6n Hi mate, all my mates were Punks and they loved the tunes i was listen to so like you they changed ;-))))
This song cannot go on long enough
One of my best songs from Gary Numan,Also remember this being re released cover from the sugarbabes,Still a good song,Nothing beats the original,Are friends Electric
This song has aged extremely well. I played a cover of it years ago with an electronic band, and it went down very well.
It’s a a tune that grabs you by the nutsack.
Brilliant before it’s time
Very extreme precious sounds my 1st ever tune i reallly took to well done Gary Numan fantastic mix from the original version x
The most sophisticated piece of machinery ever put together. Now in extended form. I need this mix. My favourite song of all time. Please share this with me
When synth music used to be glum! Brilliant track and very sensitively extended!
Brilliant song,but I don't find it glum at all!
TOP!!! My Number One from Gary!
This is a great song for sure but for me as when i heard cars for the first time at the age of 9 I personally have to say number one is Cars for sure..
Polymoog, Minimoog and authentic drums, bass guitar and a little lead strums. Awesome
What are those 15 people thinking giving a thumbs down to this great piece of music it was away ahead of it time I was there when it first came into the charts it blew everything out of its way fantastic.
Yes Gary and tube way army blew everything out of the way a brilliant song that set the charts back than on fire you were cool if you had the single but very cool if you had the picture disc those were the days Im still a fan now in 2021
Probably because of the adds. How can you put adds in the middle of a song? Terrible. Good track tho
I was a bit late to the party when it came to this, in the eighties I grew up on the Cure, madness and talking heads, but I was always aware of this song and loved it I appreciate its brilliance more now than ever, brilliant!
Besten Dank für diesen Mix ! ! Andreas - Steinmetz aus Leipzig ! !
Loved this album when it was released back in 1979.... It hasn't dated. If anything it sounds better than ever.
This is one of the cuts you would hear on FM 93.3 , WXRT Chicago's Fine Rock Station. Wonderful days 🎉
Very Nice
Great music 💎💎💎
A masterpiece.
Super! Thanks for posting! Wonder how it would sound as a punk/garage cover?
It's cold outside
And the paint's peeling off of my walls
There's a man outside
In a long coat, gray hat, smoking a cigarette
Now the light fades out
And I'm wondering what I'm doing in a room like this
There's a knock on the door
And just for a second, I thought I remembered you
So now I'm alone, now I can think for myself
About little deals and S.U.'s, things I just can't understand
Like a white light that night or a slight touch at times
I don't think it meant anything to you
So I opened the door
It's the friend that I'd left in the hallway
"Please sit down"
A candle lit shadow on a wall near the bed
You know I hate to ask
But are friends electric?
[Incomprehensible], mine's broke down
And now I've no one to love
So I find out your reason for the phone calls and smiles
And it hurts and I'm lonely and I should never have tried
And I missed you tonight, so it's time to leave
You see, it meant everything to me
+Dezmo59 Welcome to bedsitter land
+Dezmo59 didn't hear the lyrics clearly, cos he says either are they? or only, before singing mine's broke down. also i can hear him say in the last paragraph, you see, you mean everything to me.
i'm sure you are okay with me pointing out these lyrics to you.
There's a man outside
In a long white coat,
White van man
To take you to the farm.
..what drugs you on???
i'm not on drugs you nut, it is obvious that some people don't pay attention to the lyrics...
and that got me curious about 'misheard lyrics' no-one should have a bad attitude towards this.
The lyric is "only". I have the original album with the lyrics printed inside the sleeve.
This is immense!
It's shocking to think this was 40 years ago. It may seem over dramatic but this, Giorgio Moroder, Kraftwerk, and Joy Division and New Order had a pretty profound effect on popular music.
Still futuristic four decades later...
Totally AWESOME !
soo woke up with this synth riff in my head this fine morning...
I love the place this music takes me to. Thank Yah Thank Yah Thank Yahusahahahahahaha V'ry Muuuch for reintroducing Me to My old friend
Where did the time go? Still sounds as good today. What a ledge. I remember seeing Tubeway Army on TOTP and actually being a lil bit scared of Gary lol but always loved the music. He's the sweetest guy :)
Heard this when came out pumping out of speakers on george st sydney hooked line and sinker great ahead of his time bought album back still have it.
😊❤
first time hearing Gary was the Lee Cooper advert.
Replica's was LIFE CHANGING when I first heard it in 1980.
The drumming in this is so underrated
Killer masterpiece !!!!. So long without that sample in my mind. Thanks for uploading.
Numan had a knack for choosing the right synth sounds. I think the main lead is from a Roland SH101. He's never been able to recreate the studio version live which is a real shame. I don't like the grunged up version either. The other patch he used was the Vox Humana from the Polymoog. That was his sound for at least three albums then along came Machine & Soul and you wonder if it's the same artist 😂
so many memories thx
Before the interwebs, General Electric, a key on a kite wire, answer has always been a Yes me thinks...🤔
Nearly 54 still cool to be numaniod even coooler now 2021, back to the future.Music.
55 yeesterday still FKN Awesome.
Great track.
Agreed... even better at 3/4 or 1/2 speeds...
This song is on 🔥!
Love it so much and really love you x
This and down in the park my faves
Great song great mix
Very good remix for a brilliant song
brilliant!

Salvashen that is just what it is
this is a seriously amazing mix , nice one!!!
lovely old work
Gary Numan is the world first rap artist with 'Are Friends Electric ?'
Second is Blondie with ' Rapture "
in 1980 sounds good to me 2021 still sounds good.
Love Gary!!!
EXELENT
The original was released in 1978, electronic music explosion began.
Although in their infancy electronic music started on the 1959 sci fi classic "Forbidden Planet" next ones I heard were "Good Vibrations" were a theremin was used by the beach boys and space oddity by Bowie where he used a stylophone. Yeah I guess Gary numan took it to the next level. I saw him in 1996 at V96 although I'm not a big fan (more of a rock fan), still like his music. Top Man. Love this one, we are glass and cars.
1979.
Gary was interviewed on R2 today by Graham Norton. This was played prior to the interview and what quality it was. Said to the wife must have been remixed as sounded fantastic over the airwaves.
There should be a 10 hour version of this!!!!
Tan sublime Gary numan me encanta
Very good..
Remembering good times at Dominos club TO.
LOVELINESS!
Dude! The mix is different! Some of the instruments seem to linger longer over the next bar. It's great. It's similar to what occurs at a live pub gig. Nice work.
ULTRAGEIL!!!
Faultless........ !
Wow love this song first ever single I bought never ages a true classic now in 12" goes on ond on and on am in heaven gotta say the all saints basement remix of this is cooking awesome check it out!
how can i get hold of this remix? its great.
This reminds me of the Factory of a Better Tomorrow music from LBP 2
this remix is amazing, and i wonder if in reality a 12" extended mix got originally cut by gary of this track cos i'm curious.
I don't think an official 12" extended exists.
@@zimzimzalabim well, it should. just saying......
Brilliant mix. Where can I get an mp3 of this
Free RUclips to MP3 converter
What was the sugar babes version of this song called, can't bloody remember, anyway, they did an interview with numan and he said he liked it,i like the numan version better to be honest
Do you have an extended version of the machman or me I disconnect.? Or even better a version of we have a technical? Or is this a one off?
Interesting topic, what is the sexual wavelength and how does science measure it ? Now we are talking about human electric fields or as Die Krupp's robo sapiens of the future .
Where the hell did you get this mix?
This song is better than"Cars".
This is unbe-fking-leivable

Understanding the lyrics, thinking of girls, ( Japan adolescent sex)! or girlfriends then fantasy and dreams come into the equation.. consider the tools and gadgets of the new age including sexting. Maybe porn stimulations Or just good friends
An ad in the midst of rhis music??? Really????!!!!!!!
need for speed someone ?
Yeah , childhood memories playing on the PSP
@@Rickoproducciones was looking for this comment, I remember getting arthritis on my thumbs from playing that game so much while listening to this on repeat
Shroom
Somehow about 30-50ms has been chopped out of the repeats near the end. Quite jarring.
oof yes this is a problem
This is not a 'mix' it's an edit.
No, but today, yes; no.
