Gary Numan chats to I Like Music


GARY: Yeah, like, can you draw roses instead of carnations?

There are plenty of people who are putting out music they don't really like, but if they don't do it the record company will drop them. And the other problem is it's common for a record company to sign a band and the band think they're on the way to the top and they go into the studio and record a few tracks, then the record label put out a white label of a potential single and give it to radio, then radio don't show an interest in it, and before they've even finished the album, the band get dropped. Instead of developing and improving artists over time and investing in them to create success together it's not like that anymore, it's in and out, if it works you're in, if it doesn't, you're out, finished, very cut throat.

You can't go into this thinking you're the best and that the world owes you something. I've got a friend who's a great musician but thinks he's better than he is, and he just can't believe he got dropped a while ago, and it's finished him. He's like a shell. It doesn't matter, I've been dropped by more record labels than most people have even heard of, it doesn't bother me, it just makes you angry and makes you want to prove them wrong, it's not the end of the world. Making music is the most important thing to me, but the world isn't going to stop if I don't make another album.
