I don't remember the singer having such thick accent

Anyways, synthesizers ftw

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Absolutely love this song. Always have.

I prefer Fear Factory version.

*promote this classic electro track (still sounds fresh today!)

Re-promoting this video to the front page as a VideoSift Classic. Originally published on Friday 25th August 2006 (promotion called by gold star member benjee)

I hated Gary and his music in the 70s (I was a punk snob), but I've grown fond of this over the past few years.

(Rest assured, NOTHING will ever make me like Afternoon Delight. NOTHING. I have standards.)

I love the guy with the synthesizer for the one drum crack.

tags changed to "cars, gary, numan, 70's, pop, music, 5th grade" by rabid squirrel deathcow

I almost looked, deathcow!

Thanks for promoting my post, benjee!

I love how serious he looks. Like if he breaks a smile the song is ruined.

Do I have the tag right on this? 70's or 80's?

1979, apparently...

That's close enough to count as 80's too, thanks

He looks that serious, because those were the 80s; sorry, pre-80s. To be honest, 44 upvotes for this video, does show our/the vidsifters average age, doesn’t it?
