I was pretty certain that the Tik Tok man would only have to get his brain tocking, sorry, ticking, for a few minutes. I am keeping those chat-up lines. Some of them are superb.... And some of them are strictly for a Numan concert.... Paddy Vickers P.S.

Anyway, I'd *love* to see Numan cover a few Carpenter tunes. I think he could do them great justice. Come to think of it, Burt Bacharach would be fantastic too.

I think it is one of the best things that Numan has ever done, and that's no joke. The synths are incredible, and I love his vocal. However, I'll go further and say that because of this track, and some of the other singers appearing on the album, I recently bought Hyacinths and Thistles by the 6th and it is the most astonishing album I've ever heard - seriously. Totally unconventional, minimalist, but with the most amazing songs, and featuring some of my favourite singers such as (apart from Gary of course) Neil Hannon (Divine Comedy), Sarah Crackle (St. Etienne, one of my favourite groups), Marc Almond and Clare Grogan (ex-Altered Images). An amazing album!
