 Topic: best marillion
Posted: April 10 2005 at 18:57 |
my favorite 5 marillion songs are: Cover My Eyes
Gazpacho
Don't Hurt Yourself
Script For A Jesters Tear
Forgotten Sons
but if I were to make a compilation I'd add, Warm Wet Circles, Hard as Love, Fantastic Place, Man of a Thousand Faces, Beautiful, Childhood's End and You're Gone.
Marillion fans is that a good compilation, or can it be improved?

1. Script for a Jesters tear
2. The Web
3. Forgotten Sons
4. Incubus
5. Fugazi
6. Cinderella Search (Real II Reel)
7. Kayleigh
8. Hotel Hobbies
9. The Last straw
10. Uninvited guest
11. Hard as love
12. Alone again in the lap of luxury

I love both marillion eras, its hard for me to compare and decide which I like more. They have so many great songs from both eras, I think I have more single songs I like from Hogarths era but the albums as a whole are better with Fish

I still haven't come round to Hogarth's voice or lyrics - and I guess that after nearly 20 years, I probably won't. "Clutching at Straws" seems weak to me, compared with the first 3 albums - hence all my faves are;
1) Forgotten Sons
2) Script for a Jester's Tear
3) Fugazi
4) The Web
5) Grendel
6) Jigsaw
7) Garden Party
8) Side B of Misplaced Childhood *
9) Side A of Misplaced Childhood *
10) Chelsea Monday, Punch and Judy, Assassing, He Knows, You Know, Three Boats Down From the Candy, Market Square Heroes, Emerald Lies, Cinderalla Search, She Chameleon, Incubus, Charting the Single.
* Although I cheated with 10, when Marillion first performed the material from "Misplaced Childhood", Fish always announced that the new album was going to be a concept album with two tracks; one called Side A and the other called Side B...
There's a BBC Transcription disc of a radio concert with Fish making that exact announcement if you don't believe me...

Good question.
I've recently rediscovered the delights of Clutching At Straws which I
thought was a but crap at the time. Warm Wet Circles is a cracker to be
sure.
Still a big fan of Garden Party and Charting The Single.
Of the Hogarth era I guess that The Party is a fine track as is Man Of A Thousand Faces.

In this case, listen to Brave, great album if you like Hogarth-style Marillion
Of course all Fish-era albums are a must have for all proggers.
the downloads from this site are a reasonable start.
