This is incredibly difficult. Not only picking 20 songs, but also ordering them. It doesn't help that I usually get more into albums than particular songs whenever I go through a Marillion phase. But I'll try this anyway. Torch Song Seasons End The Uninvited Guest The Last Straw Fugazi Jigsaw Afraid Of Sunlight Three Minute Boy This Town Trilogy Hotel Hobbies/Warm Wet Circles/That Time Of The Night Trilogy The Lap Of Luxury Bitter Suite (Especially for the amazing Blue Angel section) Script For A Jesters Tear Grendel The Fruit of the Wild Rose Holidays In Eden Heart Of Lothian White Russian Sugar Mice Easter Slainte Mhath Marillion have some of the best title tracks.

I wonder if I really should do this.... listen to the whole Marillion discography, pick out the great songs, comparing all of them and choose 20. A lot of work.....but I like the idea. I'll be back with a list, if I succeed!

Well, I'm stuck in the 70s with other prog greats like Genesis and Yes (the time of their best output), so I might as well be stuck in the 80s with Fish-era Marillion...

Thanks. The music from the Fish era is not a patch on the h era imho.
I left a real biggie off my list though, Asylum Sattelite #1
 . And also Neverland should have been higher up too.Off to see Marillion tonight and I really can't wait. It'll be the first time I've seen them since about '87!!!

By the way, have you heard the acoustic renditions of "The Space" that the band has been doing on their unplugged gigs? They might feel the same way, since they got rid of the end bit as well.
