Crazier CD1 --- The first single to be lifted from the 'Hybrid' remix album, 'Crazier' saw Numan face off against
nu-metal electro-punk Rico (an alternative version of the single with Rico joining Numan on vocals appearing on Rico's 'Violent Silences' album) ...and what a result! The new single mix having been brilliantly re-worked by Steve
Osbourne, who took the album version and made it really smack the listener around the head, quickly secured regular exposure courtesy of satellite tv music channel
Kerrang! who showcased the video in all it's dark glory week after week in its number 1 spot. This eventually led to the single landing inside the UK Top 20 and getting Numan back on
TOTP. From its chugging nu-metal guitars and banging drums to its messy electro flourishes and - of course- Numa's soaring (and for a small part harshly whispered) vocal, 'Crazier' was a true industrial rock anthem.
Also featured on this version of the single (the first of three) were Rico's Hybrid remix of the 'Pure' track 'Listen To My Voice', the Grayed Out Mix of fellow 'Hybrid' new track 'Ancients' and the 'Crazier' video.
Overall a highly successful and thoroughly entertaining package..
Crazier Lyrics
Crazier
The more I take a look inside, the more I'm fried
The more I understand the ride, the more I slide
The more you put me back in line, the more I tried
The more you looked into my eyes, the more you lied
I come back crazier, but feel much better
You come back crazier, you'll feel better
The more I disregard the signs, the more I fly
The more I walk across the lines, the more I glide
You come back crazier, but feel much better
You come back crazier, you'll feel better
You come back crazier, but feel much better
You come back crazier, you'll feel better
Listen To My Voice
Listen to my voice
And please try to understand
The one you call Messiah is a lie
You are not the plan
And you're begining to annoy
You are just a game and it has won
You will never see
The places promised by your faith
You will never know eternal peace
The God you love is gone
He lies broken by your shame
The thing that took his place already dies
It will send angels
Send black angels for you
I am just a voice
That no-one else will hear
Only you are pure enough for truth
You must write 'The Book'
And then tear away belief
Only you can save the light of man
It will send angels
Send black angels for you
Ancients
Some can shine
Some can fly
Some are glorious
Some are ancient
Some are wise
Some are strong
Some are everything
You could dream of
Some are clouds
Some are rain
Float like angel wings
On the ocean
Some can sing
Songs of gods
Words so beautiful
They fall like raindrops
But none are like me
All I know is you're not with me
Like me
Some will cry
Cry for you
Take your pain away
While you're sleeping
Some will die
In your name
Give their soul to you
For safe keeping
A Prayer For The Unborn
So, I prayed
But you weren't listening
Making miracles?
So, I begged
But you were far away
Saving souls perhaps?
So, I screamed
But she was very small
And you have worlds to mend
So, she died
And you were glorious
But you were somewhere else
If you are my Shepherd
Then I'm lost and no-one can find me
If you are my Saviour
Then I'm dead and no-one can help me
If you are my Glory
Then I'm sick and no-one can cure me
If you light my darkness
Then I'm blind and no-one can see me
If you are my Father
Then love lies abandoned and bleeding
If you are my comfort
Then nightmares are real and deceiving
If you are my answer
Then I must have asked the wrong question
I'd spit on your heaven
If I could find one to believe in
