Grendel - what’s the deal?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Although I have five Marillion CD's, it was on visiting this forum that I first learned of the existence of the song Grendel. Apparently famous and well appreciated, but not on any of their regular CD's. So I bought a 6 Euro Marillion compilation CD just for this song, and it is indeed well worth while.
And now I'm really curious. What is the deal with this song? Where did it originate, and why is it not on one of their regular CD's?
