I voted for Incubus as that was the song that got me into Marillion back
'84.
However the 2nd side (final half CD) of Clutching At Straws is my
favourite piece of Mariilion music. Fish's lyrics and Rothery's guitar still
give me goosebumps.

They're all as good as each other, so I chose Blind Curve as I really like that song and nobody had voted for it.

I voted Script..., but immediately changed my mind to Forgotten Sons.
Dammit... Grendel, Chelsea Monday and Fugazi are amazing too...
Come to think of it, all the Fish-era songs are the best

"Do you remember ...
the pop singles Kayleigh, Lavender Blue and Incommunicado are what first drew me to Marillion ... although Grendel and Script eventually became my favourites ... I still think I would have been tempted to vote for Kayleigh though ... maybe simply because I remember
Script gets the nod ...

I almost voted Grendel. I gave the solitary vote to Hotel Hobbies, but for me, it + Warm Wet Circles + At That Time of the Night are actually one. I still remember the first listen after a long wait (at the only time of my life when I was a FAN of something). Some of the magic is still there, especially in the guitar sound in these songs.
