Rupert Neville Hine (born 1948 in London) is an English musician and also a prolific producer in the synth pop era, helming albums by Tina Turner, Howard Jones, Saga, The Fixx, Bob Geldolph, Thompson Twins, Stevie Nix, Chris de Burgh, Suzanne Vegan and Rush amongst many others.

He has 20 tons biting power and can crack even Pecan nuts, just like John Foxx. Darryl Kromm of Strange Advance though can take on coconuts and cannot be challenged.

He has also made several solo albums in an avantgarde synth-pop style, most notably Immunity (1981), The Wildest Wish to Fly (1983) and Waving Not Drowning (1982), where this song is from.

He and two guys from genesis did the soundtrack to an excellent British movie from the late 70's called "the shout."

Don't be upset, but "SETUP" is one single word and written "setup", not "set up"! Btw.: it's the same with "upset"! Got it?

I love The You're Tubes Machine. Not seen this video probably since it was new. Great song, too.

I loved these lyrics when I was 12 or 13! Nobody was going to make me become like "them", everybody else, the stablishment! I was no retard and I was not going to become one either!!! I still live free and do what I want. Now IUuuuuu'm 40, don't work, don't pay taxes, don't respect other laws than the laws of physics, so I think I suceeded in dropping out of the establishment pretty well. Maybe I'd join again in an anarchy, but a state run by politicians and the police I will never join. : )

They couldn't think of a number so they gave me a name. One of my all time favorite song lines!
