It is a pity that Jigsaw is not present

Therefore has voted for Grendel

Hi Everybody:

I'm in doubt - "Jigsaw" or "Chelsea Monday"

But Fish Era forever...

Best Greetings

Fish's last recorded contribution 'The Last Straw'.

The line 'I'm still drowning...' always gets me.

Lots of good other ones though, Forgotten Sons, Fugazi, Cinderella Search, Heart Of Lothian (if you ever heard it played live at the Edinburgh Playhouse you'd know why), Warm Wet Circles, Tux On to name but a few.

INCUBUS!

Fish's most wicked lyrics in a romantic context, and some of the most impressive motifs that Marillion has ever written - the guitar solo interlude sends endless chills to my spine, and the emotional climax is an exciting tale of cruelty out of rejected love. Wicked, really wicked.

Regards.

Great thread with so many to choose,I think it has to be Script for a Jester's tear.The man is amazing, as I have stated previously in my thread on' Raingods with zippos' this immensely talented man has to be encouraged to stay on in the music scene.I believe he is touring this summer with the 'Misplaced Childhood' tour, there had better be Scottish dates.If you read in here fishy, get a grip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tough, but my favourite wasn't there.

White Russian.

It's a song I sing with all my might, arms wide, eyes closed. The true sign of a great song.

Slainthé Mhath and Forgotten Sons very close behind.

A hard choice !

I voted "Slainthé Mhath" because of its excellent lyric and a big sound and Fish becomes angry at the end. Needless to say I already regret to not have voted for incubus, the last straw, Chelsea monday or Punch and Judy.

I was just listening to Fugazi. It remains a magificent monster. Incubus and Fugazi are whet Marillion represents for me.

 

No bad songs in the Fish era. I still don't particulairly care for Sugar Mice, but still it's far better than everythingh I heard from any band

The one Marillion song that always makes me happy is "Heart Of Lothian." Superbly rhythmic lyrics, brilliant singing an absolute gem.
