I saw Numan at the hordern pavilion in Sydney Australia his first concert in Sydney and Cars was very big at the time late 70s I would have been 13 or 14 yrs old . I am 57 today. I was taking photos and security told me to stop it and then Mr Gary pipes up " you can take photos" I'm sure he was talking to me, lol.

When I was about 11, Vice City came out and it had a song called "Cars" by some dude named Gary Numan. I really liked the song and so did my buddy. So we went to his place and went on his computer and typed "Gary Numan" into Limewire. "We Are Glass" was the first one we clicked on... I became obsessed in that moment. Since then, I've listened to every album of Numan's. "We Are Glass" will forever be one of my favorites.

Probably my favourite SINGLE of all time by any artist. 'Cars' and 'Complex' from 1979 had made a HUGE impression on me and I couldn't wait to hear Gary Numan's new material. I clearly remember the day I bought the single, on the week of its release. May 1980. The first time I'd bought a single BEFORE it was in the charts. As a 15 year old school boy I was ridiculed mercilessly for liking Gary Numan but I learnt at an early age it's best to take no notice of what other people think!

It's clear that at this stage in his career, Mr Numan had yet to learn of the existence of minor chords on his Gibson Les Paul: this is entirely major (or chords without a third a.k.a. power chords) as was the case for, I think, every song he had written up to this point. What does that tell us about the value of a musical education? I'm not sure, given how commercially successful he was without one.

I'd never heard ought like it and it changed me and my mates forever. A new age had begun. This was closely followed by Visage, Fade to Grey and Ashes to Ashes by Bowie. God, what a time.. and I feel so privileged to have been there, when it happened.
