| live=[[Wave Goodbye Tour]]<br>[[Europe + Asia 2018]] through present}}'''"Metal"''' is the eighth track on ''[[Things Falling Apart]],'' a cover of [[Gary Numan]] from his 1979 album ''The Pleasure Principle''.An early, partial leak of the cover from ''[[The Fragile]]'' era was remixed and shared under various names, most often the "Lee Completion Mix."

The end of the song features a drawn-out instrumental referencing several other Numan songs: the higher-pitched synth line is taken from "M.E." (also from ''The Pleasure Principle''), while the piano line references "Remember I Was Vapour" (from 1980's ''Telekon'').
