Gary is a musical pioneer, the way he was treated early in his career is a travesty, total respect for Gary reinventing himself and coming back the way he has, he is unique.
I knew Gary's music back in the day. Loved the music and him. Then I never heard anything again. I have been listening to live concerts and saw Gary Numan. I took a listen and I didn't think this is how Gary truly is compared to the cars video. Listening to all songs, he is truly a genius. Thank you, I am a fan reunited. Rock n Roll Hall of Fame... wake up!
Love this documentary. Gary, you just keep doing what you were born to do. Genius. We all need support and you have a lovely family who support you too as you do them. Loving Ravens new song. Keep smiling through🌺
What a legend. I confess to shedding a tear at the end. Third row and centre at the first Wembley gig, missed the second unfortunately, Australia is just a little too far out. He played as big a role in my teen years as anyone could. Truly someone to aspire to. Deepest respect Gary. You are a true legend.
This doc was brilliant!! Been a fan since 79, saw him in Toronto March 16, amazing show! I can just imagine all the emotions running through his mind before he went on stage at Wembley, I cried to!! so happy for him, the man is amazing!!❤❤
The British press absolutely hated him but fortunately it just made the fans ( me) just love him more! I’ve seen him live many times over the years including being devastated at Wembley in 81 when he decided to retire. I’m waiting patiently for May where he will be playing Glasgow with The pleasure Principle and Replicas albums. I can’t believe at the age of sixty I’m still able to go watch Gary Numan live. First concert. The Pleasure principle tour Glasgow Apollo, my first concert and his first live appearance. ❤🖤❤️🖤
the NME for instance would groom & hype their own discovery or scene . they’d jump on a cool bandwagon & be its champion until as DG says get bored then the act or scene was doomed. In 1980 the NME was as powerful as The Sun or Der Spiegel but in rock music terms & the NME was overtly Left wing .Gary Numan caught them all out by appearing to come out of nowhere ! Phil Oakley spoke of he & his band & electro loving mates being shocked when Gary had first reached the singles chart & appeared on bbcs Top of the Pops the same week - they’re in front of their tv going ‘ wtf - who is this ?’ although he & Human League unlike the music press wasn’t negative whatsoever re Garys’ music or success .
Very touching at the end of the documentary when Gemma is comforting him before he gets on stage. I wonder if his mum Beryl had to do the same during his younger years...
I remember a newspaper here in Australia said Gary was a poor man’s David Bowie which made me so angry that I still haven’t bought that particular newspaper since . That was in the early 80’s . I don’t forgive or forget .
He had a rough time off the press at the time but in the end he won he's the king off synth and puts today's music to shame I was nine when cars hit no one still one my favourite songs 45 years later.👌
Just saw him with FLA and Ministry a few weeks ago in Toronto. What a show he put on. I feel embarrassed that I never stayed connected with him. Ran out and bought two CDs the day after to support the cause.
I felt the same way when I first saw this. He just fell off my radar after being in my 20’s in the 80’s. But mad I am dying to see him live and I hope he gets a decent royalties cause I’m buying some CD’s. 😊
I got into synths and bought a Moog because of Gary :) I would say there was some kind of influence there :) I remember getting my hands on a Mini Freak synth and the first thing I programmed was a poly Moog type sound! guess what! Someone criticised me! asked me why are you trying to make Gary Numan sounds out of this modern machine! So un-original and old! I’m like ‘I wouldn’t be into synths if I didn’t listen to Numan! and when I mess with a machine, Gary sounds will always be a blueprint to me as a starting point and I have fun doing it’ plus, I was annoyed with people complaining as I have the skills to programme!!! thought they would appreciate my efforts :) I create other sounds as well! I’m open to try everything :) but Gary’s sounds always the ones that started it all for my synth passion
Gazza! As an Aspy, his compositions are language to me. I love the rationalizing with having a big shot of Tequila preshow to focus. He takes the worst tasting, nastiest booze made. Hard to get a habit when you want to vomit after I dont know about flying a Zero as a Yank but having flown in very small planes I totally see what he means about voiding your mind because you could easily die if you are not entirely present. Cheers to all (N)humans.
Thank you for posting this! I've been searching for it 😊 an awesome documentary about Gary, his work, history & amazing family ❤ Oh his wife Gemma is a REAL 💎 GEM! Thank you again!
His US tour with Ministry had a stop in Biloxi, MS - for reasons I'll never understand - and I got to go. Not surprisingly in a state that tends to frown on music of the non-yee-ha variety, the crowd wasn't huge, but it was still a top-notch show. His newer stuff is solid, and the energy never waned. Great gig all around. Turns out, you CAN make good music without fiddles and banjos. You hear that, Mississippi?
.....Gary's resurrection and feeling to music certainly was inspired by NIN and the resonating industrial soundscapes of the 1990's.....he realized that he needed to embrace and incorporate that era of music to continue successfully, ironically it was those musicians of the industrial scene that were heavily influenced by his first 3 albums of 1978-1979.....
Just shows, nice genuine honest people can win in life, im a fan but not a massive one, but ive always rooted for him, cos he just deserves it. Keep being sweet, vulnerable, chaotic, genuine you Gary, you absolutely 100% deserve every success you achieve(d) past present and future. One more thing, just.....Thank you Gemma, just thank you, for caring and for loving someone, unconditionally, "warts n all" as they say, as thats what love is, acceptance of each others frailties, and supporting each other through thick, thin, and sometimes thicker! An absolute match the stars, and destiny decided were right for each other and who needed each other....those "stars" eh? Mischievous little buggers! 🙄😏🥰 PS....a massive shout out to Garys Mum and Dad, who stood by, in his own words, a difficult child no one wanted to educate, deal with, or understand, at a time in the 70s when difficult kuds were thrown in childrens homes, mental asylums or borstals...which for some parents, was an easy or at least, EASIER choice. That revelation melted my heart. 💖
I’m 47 and so endeared to Gary. Such a normal and down to earth man. 39:00 this breaks my heart (illness). Times haven’t changed much in the schools sadly.
i was 15 in 1979 & his 1st appearance on TOTP was as big a thing at our school as the 1st Pistols’ appearance 2 years previously. he out-did the lot of those chart acts by being outside the pop or punk or new wave or disco king or rock cliques whilst bringing probably the coolest act of the 2nd half of the decade to the show since Bowie or Bolan before . watching this video has been an inspiration because I’ve experienced those same challenges Gary has lived with my take on the world & those filling it on a sometimes overwhelming basis is soo familiar. Bless the guy & his loved ones 😁👍🐢👽❤️
I relate so much to Gary's view of 1970s aggression. I too am British and to be honest, what a thoroughly horrible place Britain was back then. Truculent, monosyllabic teenagers amid an age where even a courteous greeting was considered 'too square': Everyone seemed to be so terribly angry. Trouble is, for a short period of time anyway, it just made everyone else angry too. They were not pleasant times. Im so heartened, therefore, that Gemma and Gary found each other. I rather suspect, actually, that BOTH of them were two lost souls living in this angry world, unable to make much sense of it. What a magical combination it was, then, that Gary stumbled across that Moog; Gemma and Gary met: had their 3 lovely daughters- and the world got to hear the most enchanting, apocalyptic, low-end, growling, melodic roar - that is to this very day right on the cusp of 'cutting edge' without a shadow of a doubt. Not many people throughout history could one thoughtfully label as LEGEND, but Gary - with all that he contributed to the Dark-end of 20th century music - I believe you could indeed rightfully call him - LEGEND.
I'd love to speak to that journalist who wrote, "no-one of any worth would be influenced by Gary Newman" and see what they have to say for themselves now!
What a fantastic video one of the best I've ever seen on UA-cam.iam 64 years old so I grew up with gary and his amazing music was absolutely fantastic.keep going Gary and what a beautiful and lovely family you have . Thank you Rab Scottish borders
Bullied at school....and in crap jobs...teacher said....working class...kids cannot become pilots.....so he got the money by becoming a pop star..to prove them wronge.❤❤❤❤
Just a normal guy getting through his fame , just amazing , this guy also flew a Harvard , If you fly war planes you’re Up there in intelligence in my book , the guys a legend in his own right so people who slate him , he’s done more than You , 👍❤️
Loved cn this docu...esp from the personal angle. Over decades, tha few occasions I've met an talked to Gary pre gig he's usu bin a rather frank an open character. Brit press tends to exist to eat its own, so GNs efforts to repel then surmount all the flak over time is fairly unparalleled in music.
Gary numan is like ozzy Osborne one offs . Although ozzy nearly killed himself with addiction. As an old goth talking here, Gary sings the anthems to our weird n wonderful lives.❤❤
I totally get it. I was born in 1957 and knew at an early age that I was different. It never concerned me much I just did what I had to do to get through. Fast forward to 2022 and I am 65. I had spent my adult life as a graphics/branding designer and was a bit depressed in semi-retirement because I needed the projects to be happy. Not for the money but the creative outlet. After some time seeing a therapist he suggested I take a test. As it turns out I have high functioning autism. As soon as I heard this it made sense. I consider myself fortunate to have been born this way yet I am glad I didn't know I was autistic when I was young as it may have given me pause with somethings that I did such as Porsche Racing. I would have has self imposed limitsthat may have held me back. Thanks Gary.
My story's a bit of an irony. Like many of you here commenting, I too have adored Gary's ultra low-end, dark and wall shaking sounds since my early teens. Now 58, I still love him to death, but 20 years ago I found myself becoming a believer in God. Now of course, we all know Gary's stance on the Christian God and bless him, everyone has their own very private views about such things, but it did mean, for me anyway, that I had to delete the odd track sadly ;- chief amung them, the Angel Wars, naturally, (a melodic track, incidentally, that I have always loved), but the lyrics about driving a stake through my Lord was a bit much. ANYWAYS, that aside, I mean, what a genius he turned out to be, don't you think ! If there was anyone who could conjure up the feeling and the atmos of an apocalyptic world (ironically) better than Gary then I have yet to meet him. Thank you, Gary Webb , for your considerably brilliant talent and contribution to the modern, synth music culture ;- the grandfather, I would say, to all that we have today.
I love him but never seen him live . I wish he would do a ASD friendly show. thats on early and held outside of busy citys . I have ASD and I know Garry has too. But i find busy noisy places too much for me to cope with .
Gemma worked wonders and thank god the crap over America type pop period went. Those awful women on ya songs gone thankfully. Now with others voices on the tracks it helps to give us your true music soul. ❤❤❤❤❤
John Foxx Metamatic matches or betters older Numan albums , very underrated , and also the real godfather of synthesiser music mixed with guitars , before Numan , with Ultravox .
@@garynumansunconvincingwig2435 I liked up to Savage, but to be honest I'm bored with that heavy NIN sound. Like yourself it doesn't resonate with me. I would like to see a change in direction, a less headbanging predictable album, but I don't think he will ever tier of that heavy sound. It just doesn't do it for me anymore. After the last save the planet Thunberg politics album, in reality we all know was a manufactured in China virus, not the planet fighting back . I thought some of the songs on that album sounded like two different songs put together, and those same overused noise effect samples are so predictable, I would say 60% of the music is samples .
Been a fan for 44 years. Since I was 15. This year, I will be 60. I will die a Gary Numan fan. I am so proud of him and love him dearly.
Numanoid Forever
Gary is a musical pioneer, the way he was treated early in his career is a travesty, total respect for Gary reinventing himself and coming back the way he has, he is unique.
Been a fan since I was 13 .love his music.
Thanks to gorgeous garys lovely wife gemma she saved him bless her
Cars is still one of the futuristic yet timeless records ever produced
Saw him in 1979 and will be going in 2024. Love him
WHAT A GREAT ROCKUMENTARY FOR DEAR GARY
We know he is a one off... he still shines....
Saw this doc on public tv recently. Thanks for sharing. Grew up with his music, great stuff.

I love Gary .. We love Gary.
Please, keep …
Love this documentary. Gary, you just keep doing what you were born to do. Genius. We all need support and you have a lovely family who support you too as you do them. Loving Ravens new song. Keep smiling through🌺
One of the best Numan documentaries yet, been a Numan fan for decades and shall remain so.
First LP I ever bought at 14, Replicas. Still got it after all these years. Thanks for the music Gary.
What a legend. I confess to shedding a tear at the end. Third row and centre at the first Wembley gig, missed the second unfortunately, Australia is just a little too far out.

Why was he hated by the British press ?
Fuck the Press...😊
@@Personal_Jesus_DM I think he said some things in support of the Tory party plus his music style was divisive to the established music journos

You’re gonna love it 😉 I met him at his Bristol gig 2 years ago… What a gentleman, and Bristol here I come again 👍🏼
Very touching at the end of the documentary when Gemma is comforting him before he gets on stage. I wonder if his mum Beryl had to do the same during his younger years...
He paints with sound.❤
It looks like Gary and I have a few things in common. I'm a musician, I have asperger's and he lives not far from me.
I remember a newspaper here in Australia said Gary was a poor man’s David Bowie which made me so angry that I still haven’t bought that particular newspaper since . That was in the early 80’s . I don’t forgive or forget .
Wow - that'll teach them! 🤣
Of course he is though.
Great stuff!
Replicas, The Pleasure Principle, Telekon, Dance and I Asassin were the foundation of my youth. Thanks Gary.

Bud the show was amazing. GO!!!!
Love him...Listen to him since i was a kid...❤😊
Legend !
I actually like his more recent music more, he just keeps getting better!
I met him..in Birmingham..he was so modest and kind.❤❤❤
I was there in 81. Amazing. Love your music and love you Gary for your creativity and for being a good honest bloke. NUMAN IS!
It warms my heart to know that GN won in the end ! And how amazing is Gemma !

Brilliant documentary, Brilliant, brilliant Gary Numan. Been a fan since 1979. You've so important to many of us❤
He filled his life....with magic.❤❤❤
Gary is a genius. His drummer Cedric well... He was amazing as well. So much soul.
And Paul Gardiner.
Paul Gardiner, Cedric Sharpley R.I.P...
If all he ever did was the song 'Cars', he solidified his place music history.
Gary is an amazing artist! As a teenager I liked CARS! Everything else is just as great! #WayCoolGaryNuman 💯💣
He is a lovely man lucky to have met him

Not yet still all waiting sadly but it's ready for release so hopefully not to long. Cheers 👍

I consider myself fortunate to have been born this way yet I am glad I didn't know I was autistic when I was young as it may have given me pause with somethings that I did such as Porsche Racing. I would have has self imposed limitsthat may have held me back. Thanks Gary.
Interesting documentary but 240p resolution is hopelessly fuzzy. What's the reason for this?

❤ 💥 😎 👊 👏 ✌️
It’s easy for musician like Dave Grohl to move on. He is a rock musician plain and simple. No image or label made up by the press
Gemma theres a lot of stuff i overlooked lol !
Gary, Bowie brother from same alien mum.
I'm sure I saw in shop in Braintree Essex. In the early 90s.
my dad and me would watch the planes come in an d land.
