    I do not think there is a singer who brings this much emotion, passion and effort into his art as much as Hogarth does. Fish was amazing, but I feel Hogarth has taken his art to another level. It certainly helps to be surrounded by incredible musicians. I never get tired of listening to Marillion.

    Welcome to Marillion. I think you've started with two real high points, but there is much in the band's catalogue that's equally satisfying. I think the moment here when Steve Rothery's solo comes in on Falling From the Moon is one of the most sublime moments in music. For a contrast next time maybe try The Space or King or Out of this World.

    IMHO, the reason people like (LOVE) Marillion is that they are not in any way out just recycling their old stuff, for old fans, and for bored musicians... They consistently create new music, putting out a new album every two years or so, and while some of it is lighter, the vast majority of it is beyond deep. Of all the bands I've loved in my life, these guys stay at the top BECAUSE of the lyrics, in which you can find real life stories, written really well. (Partial bit of the long article...) "Out of This World" about the loss of the Bluebird (From the Times: "'Bluebird' Donald Malcolm Campbell (1921-1967) set water speed records of 202.32 mph (1955), 276.33 (1964). In a jet-powered automobile, he set the land speed record of 403.1 mph (1964)...Campbell was said to be obsessed with regaining the water speed record after losing it in 1965. In 1967, against the advice of his racing team, Campbell took Bluebird II out on to Coniston Water in the Cumbrian Lake District... Although only slight, the waves on the lake were sufficient to flip his craft into the air, killing Campbell. In March 2001, Bluebird was raised from the murky waters. A Times article dated Friday March 9th 2001, reveals that Marillion played a key part in the recovery... Found here: " marillionations.blogspot.com/1995/06/out-of-this-world.html " ) Worth a read through one of these days. And this is only one, but one of their all time most beautiful all said.

    This day was promised to me
    The gods are my shield
    My fate has been sealed
    Lightning and javelins fly
    Soon many will fall
    We are storming the wall
    Stones fall snow from the sky
    We will pay with our glory
    In the fire of battle
    Zeus today is mine
    Killing all my way
    Like sheep and like cattle
    Smashing skulls of all who defy
    I spare not the hammer
    I spare not the sword
    This day will ring with my name
    None have to chase me
    Let he who will face me
    Kill me or die by the sword
    [II THE DEATH OF PATROCLUS]
    Oh friend of mine, how to say goodbye
    This was your time, but the armor you wore
    Was mine, I will not rest
    Until Hector's blood is spilled
    His bones will all be broken
    Dragged across the field
    This dear friend is how we'll say goodbye
    Until we meet in the sky
    [III FUNERAL MARCH]
    [IV ARMOR OF THE GODS]
    [V HECTOR'S FINAL HOUR]
    Here is inside the walls Troy, the gods weigh my fate
    From this day do I abstain, to a memory of hate
    To pay for all the blood that spilled
    The many thousands I did kill,
    No walls can contain the gods' almighty will
    I hear the silent voices I cannot hide
    The gods leaves no choices so we all must die
    Oh Achilles let thy arrows fly.
    Into the wind, where eagles cross the sky
    Today my mortal blood will mix with sand
    It was foretold I will die by thy hand
    Into Hades my soul descend
    [VI DEATH HECTOR'S REWARD]
    Cowards in the grip of fear, no valour to uphold
    Cut into the earth, with honor long been sold
    For all shall come to know me
    As they fall unto their knees
    Zeus the Thunderer, control my destiny
    When the cards of life were dealt,
    My hand a ruthless fate
    To avenge, and bringeth fury, Hector feel my hate
    A bloodbath was born to bring, by birth I'm an assassin
    To cut the cord of life and beath,
    Ties to earth unfasten
    Blood and fire death and hate, your body I will desecrate
    Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall of Hades waits
    Kill...
    Hector's blood lies on the battlefield
    His body lies on the battlefield
    His body's mangled wounds,
    The gods who once protected him are now his gods of doom,
    Like a tower standing tall, steadfest in direction
    I fall upon you bringing death, the gods give no protection
    Coward in the grip of fear, no valour to uphold
    Cut into the earth, with honor long been sold
    For all shall come to know me, as they fall ino their knees
    Zeus the Thunderer, control my destiny
    Blood and fire death and hate, you body I will desecrate
    Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall of Hades waits
    Die, die, die...
    [VII THE DESECRATION OF HECTOR'S BODY]
    [PART 1]
    [PART 2]
    [VIII THE GLORY OF ACHILLES]
    The oath of the gods, this day was fulfilled
    In the heat of the battle, Hector was killed
    See him Patroclus, down in the dust
    Rejoice in his death my symbol of trust
    A dozen highborn youths, have been killed
    Cutting their throats their blood was all spilled
    Their bodies set at the fool of your fire
    With oxen, sheep and two of your hounds
    Your funeral pyre high off the ground
    Hector's body dragged three times around
    I will carry the torch to your funeral pyre
    I will ask of the wind to send high your fire
    Hector's blood will not be washed from my body until your body is burned
    A prophecy spoken a promice fulfilled
    More blood will be spilled, more will be killed.

    H. is a way better singer then Fish, but lyrically Fish is more complex. The Brave Album. LISTEN TO IT LOUD WITH THE LIGHTS OFF

      Don't get me wrong I still think Fish is a great guy. But even though Clutching at Straws was a great album... cracks were shoeing and after watching Live at Lorely I knew it was the end.
      Until 1989 hit. This bouncy you and very good looking guy Steve Hogarth (h for short) exploded into the scene. As a band they are still having the time of their lives go look at All One Tonight from the Royal Albert Hall.
      Honest
      .You'll love it!

    I hope someday you’ll make a video about The Invisible Man song from them. The live performance is amazing. Thank you for all your commentary videos.

    I can recommend Transatlantic as Pete Trewavas also plays.

    Hey Jim! another cool one :) I have thought about something that i didnt talk to you about. Id like to see you reacting to the Band "Skyclad" With their Song "Words fail me". Its a Band that is not that well know but it basically created 2 genres that are really popular in rock and metal. Im not gonna tell which ones tho ;) Just that a lot fo people should appreciate it more.. but thats the case with many awesome bands. The song is from their newest Album and i finally..this year... had the chance to see them live and talk to them for hours. That was one of my biggest dreams cause i know them since i was a little boy and nobody else i met knew them at all.. i was so suprised when they showed up on my favourite festival. They went through much and they were really really great live
    and yes.. they played that song Live and it was daaamn awesome. It also has a pretty strong message :D I know i recommend quite a few songs but i usually dont ask for a reaction video directly, usually i just exchange awesome music with you ..but this one is too special ^^ Have a nice weekend! (had to edit that. stupid me typed in the wrong song name o.o)

    JIM, you obviously need something longer, even though the crowd reaction for "GO" at the Albert Hall is great. I would still say This Strange engine or Ocean Cloud. Thanks for the mention. I am travelling from NZ next April for the convention, that's how mad we are us Marillion Anoraks!

    Somewhat belatedly, it would seem, some context for this astounding work of art is necessary to fully appreciate it.
    The album "Brave" is the story of a girl born into a "respectable" family who, starting at quite a young age, is sexually molested by her father. When she runs away from that horror, she is apprehended and placed in a mental asylum, probably because nobody believed her story of incest at the hands of her respectable father. She escapes from the asylum and runs away to the Big City, where she falls in with the wrong sort of crowd, experiments with drugs, and then ultimately gets her already fragile heart broken by a cad. She opts for the Great Escape, a walk out on a high suspension bridge with the intent to end her unbearable pain by throwing herself over the railing into the painlessness of oblivion. She is singing her song to you, the listener, as she heads towards that end.
    In earlier live versions, the backdrop behind the stage shows a slow motion video of a darling young girl, maybe about 5 years old, standing on a swing in a pretty white pinafore, hair all in curls, laughing happily. as she glides back and forth across the backdrop. People took that beautiful young girl and tortured her emotionally until she saw suicide as the only escape. Think of that joyful and beautiful child when you listen to this song.
    The record company made the band add an epilogue song, "Made Again" to the album, indicating she decided not to kill herself. There is supposed to be a hidden track on the original CD that is 15 minutes or so of water lapping upon the shore underneath the bridge.
