Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars "Hits"? Plural? Really?.......2006-12-28

All Gary Numan ever did was "Cars," a sub-par David Bowie impression that was novel in its day but grates on the ears today like fingernails on a chalkboard. Avoid this like it was toxic sludge.

4 out of 5 stars It would be even better ..........2004-11-06

Basically this is a great compilation particularly if like me you remember Cars and Are friends electric ? first being released back in the late 70's and were impressed by the innovative electronic weirdness. Very cool stuff I think and there are a number of other less well known but very good tracks on the CD also. My only dissapointment was that the last track Cars (original release) dosnt play properly. I sent back the first CD and got a replacement but it had the same flaw so I decided to keep it anyway as it has the remix which is very similar.

3 out of 5 stars Good, But Lacking.......2004-09-28

Where is "Me, I Disconnect From You"? The best song from Numan's best album, "Replicas" should have made the cut!

4 out of 5 stars To Steve Gdula.......2004-09-03

QUOTE: Songs like "When I Die You Die" have a sweeping grandeur to them, nonetheless, and earlier works like "Bombers" have an aggressive punk edge. "Stormtrooper in Drag," took Numan's techno-glam phase about as far as it could go, but hey, at least you could dance to it. --Steve Gdula


Steve, the song is called "I Die:You Die..for one, and "Stormtrooper in Drag" is technically not a Numan song but written by his late-friend and bass player Paul Gardiner.. and secondly, Numan is having the biggest resurgence of his entire career right now and no one is paying any attention. Listen to PURE and you'll see what i'm talking about...Finally, latter day synth-whizzes owe EVERYTHING to Numan. He's the godfather of Electronic and Techno music... all fruit SHOULD be laid at the base of his Volcano.. just ask Marilyn Manson, Beck, Billy Corgan, NIN, Foo Fighters... who have all paid homage to Numan and will agree with that sentiment.

4 out of 5 stars Good overview of Numan's hits.......2003-04-25

This is a good overview of Numan's big hit singles, particularly in the UK, in the late 70's and early 80's. My personal favourites are Cars (original version), Are 'Friends' Electric?, White Boys and Heroes, Bombers and This Wreckage. For those who are seeking a collection of Numan songs, this is the ideal album to get.
