A couple great choices. If it wasn't for Fountain of Salmacis, Slippermen would have likely been mine too. I don't like Renaissance at all (except the debut album with Jane Relf), but Can You Understand is the one Annie song I really like  |

I have my top 5 very well defined, but after that I really find difficult to choose whom I like better than the others, so:
- Pink Floyd: Shine on you Crazy Diamond (all 9 parts, that's actually my very favourite song of all). - Yes: Awaken (specially the Keys to Ascension version). - Dream Theater: Octavarium. - Rick Wakeman: Arthur. - Mike Oldfield: Ommadawn part 1. |

I really love that album. I'm just waiting for the new re-recorded version to arrive, actually... I hope it's got some good stuff to enjoy besides what we already know. I believe Rick himself considers the song Arthur to be his best song. Edited by Dellinger - July 29 2018 at 21:26 |

It's interesting to make the list ex tempore. Yes - Awaken Marillion - This Strange Engine Gentle Giant - Schooldays Pink Floyd - Echoes Caravan - Nine Feet Underground VdGG - Plague of the Lighthouse Keepers King Crimson - Starless Strawbs - Autumn Wigwam - Fairyport (I felt sorry to exclude several important favourite artists!)

Hi,
Sadly, I don't do songs ... I only do full albums. I just can't separate pieces within a Symphony, or Concert by anyone ... it is all about the artist, not the song, for ME! If I were to choose the albums, they would include AD2's Yeti and Dance of the Lemmings, and then CAN's Future Days and Soon Over Babbalooma. Choosing a "song" in those albums is nutz for me! It's impossible!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!
