Gary Numan (born Gary Webb on 8 March 1958) is an English singer, composer, and musician . He is considered to be one of the pioneers of commercial electronic music[1] and has been described as the "King of synthpop."[2] Numan is widely known for his chart-topping 1979 hits " Are 'Friends' Electric? " (with Tubeway Army) and " Cars ". His signature style combines gloomy themes of depersonalisation and alienation accompanied by energetic synthesizer work .

Tubeway Army (1977–1979) was a London-based punk and new wave band led by singer/guitarist Gary Numan . Tubeway Army was the first band of the post-punk era to have a synthesizer-based hit , with the single " Are 'Friends' Electric? " and its parent album , Replicas , topping the UK Album Chart in mid 1979 .
The only constant members were:

Gary Webb (also known as "Valerian" and "Gary Numan") : vocals , guitar , keyboards/synthesizers
Paul Gardiner (also known as "Scarlett") : bass guitar , occasional backing vocals




Exhibition (1987) is a double disc compilation album of Gary Numan's hits and selected other tracks released on the Beggars Banquet Records label. The songs cover from his early punk years of 1978 with Tubeway Army to the songs from the Warriors album of 1983.

Complex

They won't come back
You know it's always the same
And they're sure to forget
Saying "everyone lies"

So I'm down to this
I'm down to walking on air
And you're here by my side
With all your waving and smiles


Please keep them away
Don't let them touch me
Please don't let them lie
Don't let them see me


My Love Is A Liquid

Can you see her little eyes?
Can you see her little hands?
Don't you think she looks just like me?
Can you hear her little scream?
Can you hear her little cry?
Don't you think she sounds just like me?

You have friends and we have reasons
I can't meet you face-to-face
There are no corners to hide in my room
No doors, no windows, no fireplace

My love is only for me
My love needs nobody else
Did you know that my love is a liquid?
I could talk to me for years
I can't speak to you at all
Did you know that friends come in boxes?

You have friends and we have reasons
I can't meet you face-to-face
There are no corners to hide in my room
No doors, no windows, no fireplace

Save your money buy a tube
Let your body flow inside
Watch it grow before your eyes
Watch it grow before your eyes

You have friends and we have reasons
I can't meet you face-to-face
There are no corners to hide in my room
No doors, no windows, no fireplace
