Are Friends Electric by Gary Numan and Tubeway Army
“From The Old Grey Whistle Test 1979, #bookjam Based on 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep' by Phillip K Dick, about as roughly as 'Blade Runner' is. A favourite author, and a favourite film meet in a great song.”

Raising awareness for Autism/Aspergers. Gary Numan has Aspergers, my son is Autistic. See what brilliance they can achieve!!!

Not only is Gary Numan totally dreamy here but folks this song is badass.
So here we have the first single I ever bought that had a picture sleeve. It wasn't the first single I ever bought (Daddy Cool by Darts) but that got 'lost' a longtime ago. I remember being obsessed with this song when it came out, and being thrilled when it got to Number 1 in the charts. Released in May 1979. This is the original version. If you like it you might want to see a much more recent reworked version here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22Z4Tv1zn-s #1979 #bedroomvinyl #7
