Steel and You - Tubeway Army

Gary Numan and Tubeway Army - Steel and You taken from their self-titled 1978 debut album.

Tubeway Army were a London-based new wave band led by lead singer Gary Numan. Formed at the height of punk rock in 1977, the band gradually changed to an electronic sound. They were the first band of the electronic era to have a synthesiser-based number-one hit, with their single "Are 'Friends' Electric?" from their second album Replicas both topping the UK charts in mid-1979. After its release, Numan opted to drop the Tubeway Army name and release music under his own name as he was the sole songwriter, producer and public face of the band, but he retained the musicians from Tubeway Army as his backing band.

In a 2012 interview, Numan spoke about the music that has had an influence on him over the years. As a teenager he was fan of T.Rex, David Bowie and Queen. His band Tubeway Army started in the punk rock era of 1977, but Numan later said that the punk sound was adopted with the sole intention to obtain a recording contract.
Ultravox's 1978 album Systems of Romance (w/ John Foxx) was the main influence behind Tubeway Army's transition into an electronic sound. Numan cited the album, and particularly the song "Slow Motion", as the blueprint for what he wanted to achieve. Numan would have an influential impact on later bands like NIN who he performed with live.
