LYRICS - "MY JESUS" : ..................................... My Jesus is like a voice in the dark My Jesus is like a lonely warning My Jesus is like a fear that haunts me My Jesus is like a tortured memory I'm Praying for my soul My Jesus is a collector of pain My Jesus says "Pain will prove you love me" My Jesus is like a shadow crawling My Jesus says "Their screams will guide you to me" I'm Praying for your soul ........................................ G..A..R..Y.....N..U..M..A..N............ ........................................ Gary Numan (born Gary Anthony James Webb on March 8, 1958) is a British singer, songwriter, electropop and new wave music pioneer. Numan rose to prominence at the tail end of the 1970s, initially recording under the band name Tubeway Army. After recording an album's worth of punky demos (released in 1984 as The Plan), he was signed by Beggars Banquet Records in 1978 and quickly released two singles, "That's Too Bad" and "Bombers," neither of which charted. A self-titled, New Wave-oriented debut album later that same year sold out its limited run and introduced Numan's fascination with dystopian science fiction and, more importantly, synthesisers. Tubeway Army's third single, the cinematic "Down in the Park" (1979) failed to chart but it would prove to be one of Numan's most enduring and oft-covered songs. Almost from nowhere, Tubeway Army reached number one in 1979 with the powerful single "Are 'Friends' Electric?", the parent album Replicas simultaneously climbing to number one in the album charts. Recent Years: In 2003, Numan enjoyed fleeting chart success once again with the Gary Numan vs Rico single "Crazier", reaching No 13 in the UK chart. Rico, who is an up and coming artist from Glasgow, also worked on the remix album Hybrid which featured reworkings of older songs in a more contemporary industrial style. In 2004 Numan took control of his own business affairs again, launching the label Mortal Records and releasing a series of live DVDs as a precursor to a critically well-received new studio album, Jagged which was released on 13 March 2006. An album launch gig took place at The Forum, London, the following Saturday. Numan has announced a UK tour commencing in April 2006 and plans to tour other countries, including the USA, during the year in support of the release. Numan also launched a 'Jagged' website to showcase the new album, and is making plans to have his 1981 farewell concert (previously released as Micromusic on VHS) released on DVD by November 2006 as well as releasing the DVD version of the Album Launch gig later on in 2006. ......................................
