Looking back at this event,I'm still very thankful !! It was a great pleasure+honour for germany ,that Gary Numan made such great live-tv-gig here !! Don't get me wrong when I must mention that its a shame,that the "crowd" mostly consists of "stupid poseurs",who just "jumped on a train"+ are mostly interested to show some tatoos or leather-clothing !! As "life-long" fan,including early "Tubeway Army"-days,I can only insist that Gary still has true fans here,who don't belong to such mud !!
hatte Sie damals auf Artè gesehen..war ne geile Show. so gut habe ich Sie nie wieder gehört und gesehen. richtig schön agressiv mit gefühl The King of Darkness
It's missing the line "Don't let the dark into me" before the one that goes "We killed the angels that warned us of you." Don't know if there's a skip in the video. I have this on DVD, so I'd have to check to see if the skip is in there too.
It definitely happens sometimes that the artist forgets part of the lyrics, which, especially if that artist has a large repertoire, is hardly surprising. However, many artists simply choose to perform the song live the way they feel to do so at that particular moment. Unfortunately it's not so easy to tell which of the two happens ;) So I agree with you, one could reason that the fans often remember the lyrics better than the artists ;)
