Additional Information

The Borg are an electro/darkwave, retro/progressive, two man composite of many influences and directions. Ed C: Keyboards, samples, instrumentation. Mark Bell: Vocal noises, samples, sound co ordination. Formed in 1999, in order to give a live performance of the ‘Numania EP’ (Are friends electric?, Replicas and We are so fragile.), which was released through Flag recordings in 1997. The three numan cover/remixes were recorded in 1993 and found favour with factions within the Numan community.

Are 'Friends' Electric? Lyrics

Are 'Friends' Electric?
(1979 single, from "Replicas" album) 

It's cold outside
And the paint's peeling off of my walls
There's a man outside
In a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette 

Now the light fades out
And I wonder what I'm doing
In a room like this
There's a knock on the door
And just for a second I thought
I remembered you 

(7.4)
So now I'm alone
Now I can think for myself
About little deals
And S.U's
And things I just don't understand
A white lie that night
Or a sly touch at times
I don't think it meant anything to you 

So I open the door
It's the 'friend' that I'd left in the hallway
'Please sit down'
A candlelit shadow on a wall near the bed 

You know I hate to ask
But are 'friends' electric?
Only mine's broke down
And now I've no-one to love 

(7.4)
So I found out your reasons
For the phone calls and smiles
And it hurts
And I'm lonely
And I should never have tried
And I missed you tonight
It must be time to leave
You see it meant everything to me



Replicas
('Replicas' album, 1979) 

It was hard to avoid
I suppose it was a shame
But they didn't even try 

You see we'd never met
And they didn't have names
There was nothing I could do 

So I turned on the crowd
And I screamed 'you and you'
'It could have been you' 

And they seemed to think
That I looked that way
Or maybe I was wrong 

So I said
Do you know Mr. Wall
And they looked the other way
And then they smiled at me 

But the police came
And I said it was me
And I just walked away



We Are So Fragile

We are so fragile
Advertising lies
That are whiter than yours
We are so fragile
They could give us a war
Just to keep us amused 

We are so fragile
I could stay here inside
And say 'It's all been done'
We are so fragile
Just pretend I never tried
I'll leave up to you 

We are still so young
And it must be wrong
Byt I'll do it all the same
We are really so shy
There's nothing I can do
Except believe in you 

We could always go home
But everyone says
This is the place to be
We are so unnatural
But you wouldn't understand
You only deal with men
