Top 10 Gary Numan songs

Postby hello_world » Sun Sep 26, 2010 11:10 pm

I've only recently started to listening to Gary Numan. I scoured the web for top 10 lists, but didn't come up with much. I did find one facebook discussion, which has several songs appearing repeatedly:

Are 'Friends' Electric?
I Die: You Die
Down in the Park
Cars
We Are Glass
Jo the Waiter
Prayer for the Unborn

There must be some numanoids on here who can do up a top 10 list properly. My own preference is for the early machine albums, but cut loose. I'd appreciate your help, and your lists!

I also like "Music For Chameleons" and "White Boys & Heroes" ...underappreciated Numan gems. Also, "This Prison Moon".

Oh and I have a soft spot for Numan's cover of Prince's "U Got the Look".

My favorite is "Cars". I love the rest equally. His music is futuristic in so many ways! Everyone knows those songs.
