Here's a bit of a challenge (this one is only for the true Marillion fans on the forum): Give us your top 50 songs by the band! All studio albums, singles, EPs and compilations count, no live recordings though. This one struck me while I was listening to the magical live rendition of 'Be Hard on Yourself', posted recently on the band's YouTube channel, check this one out if you haven't already, it elevates the song even more. I will certainly be reading all of the subsequent posts, so take your time and eventually I hope you will have some fun compiling this exhaustive, I dare call it, list of songs. So, in light of the upcoming new album by this fabulous band, here's mine: 1. The Space… (‘Seasons End’, 1989) 2. Go! (‘marillion.com’, 1999) 3. El Dorado (‘F E A R’, 2016) 4. Sounds That Can’t Be Made (‘Sounds That Can’t Be Made, 2013) 5. If My Heart Were a Ball It Would Roll Uphill (‘Anoraknophobia’, 2001) 6. This Is the 21st Century (‘Anoraknophobia’, 2001) 7. Gaza (‘Sounds That Can’t Be Made, 2013) 8. The Leavers (‘F E A R’, 2016) 9. Easter (‘Seasons End’, 1989) 10. Hard As Love (‘Brave’, 1994) 11. Happiness Is the Road (‘Happiness Is the Road’ 2008) 12. This Train Is My Life (‘Happiness Is the Road’ 2008) 13. The Invisible Man (‘Marbles’, 2004) 14. Going Under (‘Clutching at Straws’, 1987) 15. Interior Lulu (‘marillion.com’, 1999) 16. Power (‘Sounds That Can’t Be Made, 2013) 17. Living in F E A R (‘F E A R’, 2016) 18. Fantastic Place (‘Marbles’, 2004) 19. Quartz (‘Anoraknophobia’, 2001) 20. Pour My Love (‘Sounds That Can’t Be Made, 2013) 21. Cannibal Surf Babe (‘Afraid of Sunlight’, 1995) 22. Whatever Is Wrong with You (‘Happiness Is the Road’ 2008) 23. Kayleigh (‘Misplaced Childhood’, 1985) 24. Garden Party (‘Script for a Jester’s Tear’, 1983) 25. White Paper (‘F E A R’, 2016) 26. Be Hard On Yourself (‘An Hour Before It’s Dark’, 2022) 27. Berlin (‘Seasons End’, 1989) 28. Seasons End (‘Seasons End’, 1989) 29. Built-in b*****d Radar (‘marillion.com’, 1999) 30. Angelina (‘Marbles’, 2004) 31. Montréal (‘Sounds That Can’t Be Made, 2013) 32. Incubus (‘Fugazi’, 1984) 33. She Chameleon (‘Fugazi’, 1984) 34. He Knows You Know (‘Script for a Jester’s Tear’, 1983) 35. Garden Party (‘Script for a Jester’s Tear’, 1983) 36. The New Kings (‘F E A R’, 2016) 37. The Fruit of the Wild Rose (‘Anoraknophobia’, 2001) 38. Estonia (‘This Strange Engine’, 1997) 39. Don’t Hurt Yourself (‘Marbles’, 2004) 40. Invisible Ink (‘Sounds That Can’t Be Made, 2013) 41. Hooks in You (‘Seasons End’, 1989) 42. White Russian (‘Clutching at Straws’, 1987) 43. Market Square Heroes (‘Market Square Heroes’, 1982) 44. The Great Escape (‘Brave’, 1994) 45. Between You and Me (‘Anoraknophobia’ 2001) 46. Ocean Cloud (‘Marbles’, 2004) 47. You’re Gone (‘Marbles’, 2004) 48. The Man from the Planet Marzipan (‘Happiness Is the Road’ 2008) 49. Beautiful (‘Afraid of Sunlight’, 1995) 50. Script for a Jester's Tear (‘Script for a Jester’s Tear’, 1983) 1. |

Wow, that is impressive.  I will try and make such a list. I've never made such a big list yet.

Blimey! Not the sort of list to contemplate when there is an afternoon of rugby on. Leave it with me a couple of days. This is the sort of list which needs to be done in an extended tea break at work!  ------------- Enhance your life.

Love your list, Cristi. Seems like the Fish-era is much more prominent in yours than mine. I will be waiting to see lazland's take on the topic.

Good heavens! Either I'm not a true Marillion fan or I'm just too lazy, but I'm not going to invest my time in compiling such a list. There are too many good songs and it would be a helluvajob to decently rank them... But it is nice reading the lists. ------------- The razamataz is a pain in the bum |
