Biography

Born 8th of March 1958 in Hammersmith, London, England. Started his musical career in 1977 as a punk rocker in the band [a=Mean Street], before being sacked in May 1977. He responded to an advert in Melody Maker to join the band The Lasers, alongside [a=Paul Gardiner]. Both soon left to form their own punk band, [a=Tubeway Army], with his uncle [a=Jess Lidyard] filling in on drums. In 1978 [a=Tubeway Army] was signed to [l=Beggars Banquet] and released a couple of punk singles. By then he was using the name Numan and the band was performing live in pubs and clubs around London, supporting [a263209]. Whilst recording demos for Beggars, Gary stumbled upon a "Minimoog," that had been left behind in the studio, still programmed to a sound that caught his attention.

LYRICS

You can cry by my windowYou can crawl on the floorYou can scream if you want toBut I won't unlock the doorYou can sleep in bus sheltersYou can sleep in the parkBut I'll rip up the treesUntil you tear yourself apartBut I don't love youNo I don't love youDo you dream?Back to surveillanceOpen eyes and wash out 'tear'A sign that says 'no exit'And 'no-one can save you here'I could talk about my programmeWhere everything is whiteI could specialise in picturesWhere nothing's ever rightBut I don't love youNo I don't love youDo you dream?We are just soundWe are just noiseAnd we are all here to lieDo you dream?You sleep by windowsYou sleep by windowsDo you cry?Do you dream?Do you?Did you?
