Singer-songwriter Gary Numan and makeup artist Mary Vango remember getting a song about a robot prostitute to No 1 without anyone realising. Gary Numan, singer-songwriter. In 1978, I was fronting a three-piece punk band called Tubeway Army. We'd had a couple of unsuccessful singles, but our record company still wanted us to do an album, so they put us in a studio to record it. That was when I saw my first ever synthesiser, a Minimoog. When I turned it on, the sound blew me away. They supply services of various kinds, but your neighbours never know what they really are since they look human. The one in the song is a prostitute, hence the inverted commas. It was released in May 1979 and sold a million copies. I had a No 1 single with a song about a robot prostitute and no one knew. Mary Vango, makeup artist.

Also here are Gravity Kills, EMF, the Magnetic Fields, Jesus Jones, the out-of-place hip-hop group Underdog, Sukia, the Orb, and Pop Will Eat Itself. A standout is "Metal" by Towering Inferno. Brian Eno described their Kaddish album as "frightening," and they are.
