[128] Then in 2005, after several of his friends and colleagues were killed in unrelated flying accidents, he gave up flying. In an interview in 2009 he said "I loved going to air shows, you'd bond really tightly with your team mates – it's an extreme thing to be doing, and you trust your life to them. And then it ended. I'd turn up and not know anyone. It got depressing. I'd sit down in the pilot's tent and there'd be all these people I'd not recognise. You'd look forward to someone turning up to have a chat with them, and they'd be dead." [129]

After the artificial soundscapes of The Pleasure Principle, Numan goes organic – to some extent, at least – on Telekon, shouldering his axe and plugging in. Compounding the weirdness here is both an instrumental break and spoken word section – neither of which have any place in pop land! – and subdued, near catatonic vocals. Youngs, Ian (9 January 2009).

[176] In a 2001 interview, he said, "Polite conversation has never been one of my strong points. Just recently I actually found out that I'd got a mild form of Asperger's syndrome which basically means I have trouble interacting with people.
