In 1980, Gary Numan again topped the album charts with his album Telekon, although the concurrent singles "We Are Glass", "I Die: You Die" and "This Wreckage" only reached #5, #6 and #20, respectively.
Gary Numan is an artist respected by his peers, with such musicians as Dave Grohl (of Foo Fighters), Trent Reznor (of Nine Inch Nails) and Marilyn Manson proclaiming his work an influence and recording cover versions his hits. The band Basement Jaxx had a huge hit in 2002 with "Where's Your Head At?", which relied on a sample of Gary Numan's "M.E." - from The Pleasure Principle album - for its hook. The band Fear Factory produced a cover of "Cars" featuring a guest appearance by Gary Numan. Nine Inch Nails covered the song "Metal" on their album Things Falling Apart. "Cars" remains Gary Numan's most enduring song; it was a hit again in 1987 and 1996, in the latter case thanks to an appearance in an advertisement for Carling beer.
Musicians who have sung Gary Numan's praises in recent years include Beck, Tricky, Queens of the Stone Age and David Bowie.
