I was never a fan of Numan/Tubeway Army in any way, shape or form, his sound never did it for me,
but I have a friend, well an old friend, who swears Numan is the "messiah", "the saviour of music", "the only musical original other than Bowie" etc etc...
I did like the linked track above...music was slightly Prodigy (in their quieter moments) and the vocals/melody were very Depeche Mode,
either Mr Numan, it appears, is one, a follower, or two, actually what my friend says he is.
that said, as much as I did like that track, it will not persuade me to become a fan or seek out his back catalogue further
