Gary Numan cover: I Dream of Wires 

Been following Gary Numan since 1978, yes I know that makes me old but I still class him as my hero. This track was my favourite from the Telekon album as well, I played it constantly. This version is OUTSTANDING....Excellent work

This is perhaps the best cover version of this song I have ever heard. Well done

This is probably my favourite Numan track ever....Tim you have done a superb job.

I love Gary so much he is such a gothic beauty

9 years on and still awesome. Thanks Tim.

excellent work , the sound is so .....modern . If Numan were to remake this now , it may well sound like this , top quality

Truly outstanding version of one of Numan’s greatest songs.

I belong to the electric church of Gary Numan. I am a NUMANOID! Have been for 41yrs and will be til the day I die! I live you Gary!💕💕💕💕💕💕🐨💣💥💎

When I bought Telekon I probably played I.D.O.W. about the same number of times as this video has been viewed. Loved it. I also think this cover is brilliant!!

Surprisingly good.Thanks.

I normally hate covers, but, this is a rare case in which Numan was done justice.

*Hey man, you have some nerve putting Gary Numan, I Dream Of Wires, and video clips of A.I.: Artificial Intelligence together in one video... LOVED IT, LOL! Good job, bro!*

Hey Tim, I want to say thank you for the absolutely beautiful covers of Numan's work. I've been subscribed and listening to you for about 10 years now (crazy how time flies) and your covers still hold some kind of magic to them I've never been able to put into words. I remember spending many nights on the metro on the way back home listening to your music to keep me entertained. Many nights out in the city listening to your music to keep me company. I even used to use your music to help me fall asleep at night. When I discovered Gary Numan I was instantly hooked and spent several years listening to his music frequently. When I discovered your covers, I often found myself torn on who's renditions I liked more. Your covers are incredible and I hope you've had a good life all these years. Thank you.

Man. I have never heard this particular song before. I thought it was the original, not a cover. Then I read the description. Hell of a cover. I don't know if I want to hear the original, ever. Beautiful.

C'était incroyable, merci ! (Le Sparkle)

Damn. This a bit different to listening to Telekon in a car in the pouring rain on holiday in Torquay in 1980.

Brilliant!!!

Its like 1980 all new again sitting in my blue neon light lit room listening to TELEKON as it washed over my mind in a sparkling cascade awakening..creating a new id within. Thank you timothyeilers for the magic. Hellbishop.

Truly outstanding. A brilliant reinterpretation of a classic early Numan track. Love the video as well. Thanks!

I usually hate Numan covers and most get them wrong, but this is brilliant. Well done.

This is a great use of footage to support the song. They go so well together!

Outstanding cover of an excellent song from "Telekon"

This is really well done. Captures the original and adds a lot more. A very thoughtful piece.

Loved it. Great track, great video. Well done. Good combination 👏

i like the way you kept it smooth and emotional,too get the response that NUMAN wanted in the first place,excellent again Tim!!

This is superb my friend

Superb. Absolutely wonderful. Fucking awesome. My song for so so long.

This is amazing!

Amazing! I love it & hope Gary does too x

Tim, this is absolutely incredible! It Literally ripped at my soul! The video imagery combined with your almost naked vocal tone sold it! Love that CR78 and the drums you chose. The subtle syncopated groove in the bass line towards the end gave me goose bumps! The Video! Holy crap! What is this? You and Dave are freakin me out! Bravo!

i would be HYPERINTERESTED to hear u do a Gary Numan Pastiche ... in you're own style, at you're own pace Monsignor.

Just Amazing

Absolutely superb! I love the video used to go with the track, very fitting indeed. Love what you have done with this cover listening to this brought me straight back to the electro pop era of the 80s. Absolutely loved it, brilliant all round.

Brilliant cover! I absolutely love it!

Fucking brilliant. Huge fan of your Numan covers. You're excellent.

Folks, This is pure genius. Tim, I'm asking again. How can I buy your music??

fantastic cover ....with some great sounds ....love the drum sounds....and a great video ... very well done

Still hoping that a string quartet will work on some Gary Numan covers.

Great c cover mate! Congrats!! 🐨💣💥💎👍

nice stuff... stayed very true to the original elegant vibe of the original :) I like what you did with the video too...

How am I just hearing this? Quite a talent you have there Tim. Your interpretations are sublime, appreciate the visual edit as well.

Excellent cover... wonderful interpretation!! 🌹 Who plays drum and bass?

magnificent!

FANTASTIC. Yes TELEKON is numans best album,for me anyway. Every song on that album is a classic. Well done Tim.

WoW, well done sir!

Wow!

Brilliant cover and you are a genius for putting this song with clips of the film AI. The whistling at the end as with the synth just completely works on a haunting level with the film. If I ever get to be a a big director, I'm going to make a robot film similar to this with "I dream of wires" resonating through the story

I love this!!!!

Pretty priceless Mr E....

Il y a un thème dominant au cœur de l'œuvre de Numan comme dans celle de Spielberg, et qui ne peut se traduire que par le langage des sons : celui du temps qui avance inexorablement, altérant peu à peu les êtres et les choses sur son passage, vers la mort et l'oubli

What’s the film called?

@Synthsound1 Thanks Dave. I love this song.

Great version. Video fits perfectly too. Nice one. :-)

Phenominal

Put it on vinyl, picture disc, etc

This is excellent. Thanks for uploading. Regards, VC

Numan is a very hard artist to cover imo but this is really rather good 👍

I take back what I said. This whole thing is totally awesome. I listen to it a few times a day. It's true the very first part of the vocals is a bit too soft-spoken, but otherwise it's awesome, WAY better than the original (which was already great).

nicely done!

Bloody amazing cover

Well done man, joyful work!!

Great cover .. ENEN BETTER VIDDY MIX .. However, Gary Numan can somehow inexplicably accomplish .... the MAJESTIC

I been dreaming of wires since 1980. Now I am non-human.

100x Better than the Robert Palmer cover (which I love). Awesome work.!

brilliant cover.. I love the different approach you took to the song. way better than the crappy cover Robert Palmer did :) I bet Gary would love this

It's a beautiful version; is this the mastered mix tho?

OH wow! One of my favs too! Your Numan remakes like this one really touch me as a fan! How many more you think you're going to do before the CD comes out?

Awesome Cover my friend!

NICE Rearrangement!

Like this the more I listen! Love that Kick your using in the chorus's! What was that Oberheim Glide program at the very end from!?

Brill!

nice tim cool

Do you have a band or do you do this all yourself? I'm going to assume the latter. This is really gorgeous.You're incredibly talented. I'm lucky to have stumbled across you tonight. Best!

hell you sound like the man himself, nice cover, howd you make the vid, i assume theyre shots from a film, fits well good work my friend

@33point3 Thanks Tony.

muito bom

The instrumental on this is amazing ... better than the original. The video is cool, too. Too bad the vocals are too quiet.

@scorbie So do I. I am the final silence. Regarding AI, perfectly man I remain to say I shed tears over this. The bear bowing his head at the death of his 2 friends? He functions alone? How could 1 not break up over that?

Oops, Helps to read the description! That is You in this vid though right? :)

Epic

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

AI

you can not beat the orignal.

Awesome rendition you've done, very well played. I have up loaded a cover of R F Elc, Airlane, working on more G N covers. I've also up loaded a version of Neon Lights an old Krftwrk album track where I've added a good bit of wrapping so feel free to view my channel & there R loads more on the way including my reworking of We R So Fragile the B side of R F Elc & others cheers & please post more demos.
