No seen dare on tour for a while great group ❤

Swimming in the Atlantic in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, the moon in front of me, the sun behind. Between two planets took on not just a new meaning, but it was a feeling. I was close to shore and imagined what Don Allum persevered through. The guy is a legend and had balls of steel. RIP. You were truly epic.

Still quo best song . Made amazing with ricks vocals . Rock on Rick and Alan

Amo i Marillion con Fish,e amo i Marillion con H.Sono 40 anni almeno che li ascolto,e continuerò sempre.Un gruppo favoloso,che le persone dovrebbero ascoltare di più.Le loro melodie sono bellissime,il loro sound idem.Ascoltateli non ve ne pentirete.👍👍🥁

Let's face it. None of either entities encountered the same commercial success after the split as the one they got before it. But we're blessed we got 2 bands instead of one out of the hiatus. Tbh some albums are dispensable, on both sides. I kind of lost track of Fish solo work when it got too 'celtic folk' to my own taste. I hung on to it though, like giving him & myself another chance - which many early fans didn't it seems as he lost lots of them after his second or third output even more so after "songs from the mirror" and some fans never came back. As for Steve H. Marillion they reportedly by themselves released albums on a too frequent basis in the 90's and 2000's just to keep up with the album/tour/album/tour routine to ensure enough revenue to keep going. But on both sides there's been some consistency with excellent releases over the last years in my opinion and this track off Marbles is one of my favorite on the album. Epic. Excellent live too, but played on too rare occasions (Neverland off the same album has always been a serious contender on live sets)

Beautiful song

Exorbitante!!!!

Quality!! End of chat 🫶

Mark Kelly inspired by this song, right , very nice the keyboards

Îmi pierd mințile de ceva vreme, dar acea muzică însorită întunecată, printre multe altele, mă ajută să plutesc, să-mi țin capul deasupra apei

Great version and of course Darren was in thin Lizzy

J'aime tellement de musiques différentes, du rock au pop, en passant par tous les styles. J'ai 51 ans, j'ai redécouvert ce groupe il y a env. 10 ans mais ce morceau... je ne sais pas comment l'expliquer... il est le plus touchant, magnifique, inspirant, profond, que je n'ai jamais entendu.

Among Malcolm Young is Rick Parfitt the best Rhythmus guitarist all over the World.

This version is so bloody damn great that I get goosebump. This version is on my setlist as a troubadoure I can tell you. So Great! I'm also a singer, guitarist and a songwriter in a Heavy Metal band called Nordic Mist. And we have a metal song named Highlander, very much inspired from Gary Moore and Phil Lynotts original version of thos song. Such a bloody great song!!!!🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

Very touching❤

Oh, ,,Dare,,... my eternal, everlasting love... Your songs are so passionate, sensual, gorgeous, stunning !!! ❤❤❤❤❤😊

Brillante . Magestuoso . Obra de arte.❤

Fantastic. Many decades of wonderful notes, compositions, emotions. Marillion at its best.

tears

Transitions in this masterpiece are just overwhelming...the best I ever heard among the greatest prog rock bands

This is an absolute prog masterpiece, as many of this superb band. Art rock at its best. Being a great fan of progressive rock, maybe Marillion is the band that I enjoy the most listening to (after Floyd.....). Long life to this cult and iconic band!!!!

Det fedeste band ever ❤️❤️❤️ Love From Denmark 🇩🇰❤️🇩🇰

I trully love this song. I want to cry while listening to it

Marillion .... Du 1er fish au dernier hogarth reste d un niveau supérieur. Ce groupe est juste magique, les rois du progressif . Les solos de rothery sont d une qualité mélodique incomparable ,perfection certain diront , ce groupe fait parti de ma vie depuis 40 années, en espérant qu ils continueront encore de nous régaler

One of my favorites!

One of Lynotts finest rockers, a show stopper for Lizzie, with Robertson & Gorham. Beautifully Redone as a Celtic ballad..

I'm 75 and have only just got into Marillion ABSOLUTELY BRILLANT!! Never too late

Stumbled on this track at 74 . I left Marillion in the Kayley era. How wrong i have been. Amazing track.

perfekt 🤗

I have just discovered this band what a beautiful powerful song with encompassing melodic inspired solo ❤❤❤

Totally agree with you. This sound is giving my soul peace in my heart.❤❤❤😊👍👍👍

My all time favorite Marillion Song! Amazing arrangement, great atmosphere! And some wonderful musicians.

This music helps me to lift up

Fantastic !

Sign Up Ocean Cloud Marillion Lyrics About Tracklist Comments This song celebrates Don Allum (1937-1992), the first man to row solo across the Atlantic in both directions. Ocean Cloud was the name of his boat. 15 Ocean Cloud Lyrics He's seen too much of life And there's no going back The loneliness calls him And the edge which must be sharpened He's losing it. And he knows But there's a fighter in his mind and his body's tough The years have been unkind but kind enough The smell of the earth It's his favourite smell But he's somehow compelled to the stinging salt hell To the place where he hurts and he's scared And there's no one to tell And no one who doesn't listen Hozier “Eat Your Young” Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified  Hozier “Eat Your Young” Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified "You can take all the boys and the girls in the world And I'll trade them this morning for my sweet Ocean Cloud I've seen too much of life So the sea is my wife and a sweet Ocean Cloud is a mistress I'm allowed For now." "You can take all the boys and the girls in the world I wouldn't trade them this morning for my sweet Ocean Cloud I've seen too much of life So the sea is my wife and a sweet ocean cloud is a mistress I'm allowed For now." "Only me and the sea We will do as we please." He remembers the day he was marched to the front By the physical knuckle head teacher of games "Look lads" he declared, "This boy's a cream puff No guts and no muscles No spine and no stuffing" The whole schoolroom sniggered And silently thanked God it wasn't them.. But time is revenge. All the bullies grow weak And must live with faithless women who despise them I'll be in Barbados in a couple of weeks With a rum on the table and yarns by the yard A story to tell and a story to save ...unless she changes her mind I'll trade them this morning for my sweet Ocean Cloud I've seen too much of life so the sea is my wife And the sweet ocean clouds will look down on my boat tonight The wind changed I felt it run beneath my ear Like silk drawn across my neck A dream of your legs Defying gravity in love The medium wave Brought signals here from far away Your tender voice riding on the sea spray Something in the air For those who know the signs Something in the air A storm.. When I was alive When I was alive Don't wanna remember When I was alive Watch me watch me Paint this picture Stretchin Cursin Hurtin Watch me Takin it Takin it Takin it Takin it... Watch me. Watch me. God above... Between two planets In between the points of light Between two distant shorelines Here am I Between two planets In the black daylight of space Between two heavenly bodies The invisible man Ripping out the radio I want to be alone "You can take all the boys and the girls in the world I wouldn't trade them this morning for my sweet Ocean Cloud I've seen too much of life So the sea is my wife and a sweet Ocean Cloud is a mistress I'm allowed I've seen too much of life So the sea is my wife And the sweet ocean clouds will look down on my bones tonight..

Ciao a tutti, dove si trova questo bellissimo brano? Su quale disco o cd? Grazie a tutti voi !!!!! Grandissimi Marillion ❤❤❤❤❤❤,max di Bergamo, Italia.

Blast from my past. Saw these guys a load of times in the 90s. Great live. Thanks for the memories.

six years ago I said it and it is the same

Best prog band ever...!!!! Bigger than pink floyd and genesis and all the rest...!!!! Fish and hogarth...???? Thank god they are different....!!!! Both uncomparably brilliant maestro's.

What a track from the 1974 album Quo absolute gem of a song from a great album.

Class,no other word for this band.if people would listen to tracks like this they would have sold 200 million records

Fight the fight

This song hits me hard 😢

I've been in a taxi today and I heard this. Late at night, my dissertation speech is on Monday. But I'm heartbroken. My girlfriend left me because I was too clumsy, too different, too incompatible with her, a lesser man... And she came to the conclusion that this is the case after 6 months of relationship, without ever telling me that these constitute too much of a problem for her. She was love bombing me at first, telling me that I was perfect for her. And I continued to be myself. After 6 months, she told me I was not, not anymore. My go to song in the beginning of the relationship was Rocket Man by Elton John. This was what I felt. Loved more than ever in her company. Loved for the first time and for the only time. Now I'm here, hurt, alone, incapable of making sense of this or finishing my paper. But this morning, I will fucking finish it for sure. And this song is my anthem for this. Thank you for listening guys <3

This song carried me through a hard patch - it is forever cherished and special to me. When they played it during my first MW in Montreal back in 2011, it was pretty cathartic.

What’s the story behind the song?

My sweet ocean cloud is a mistress I am allowed

Beautiful will never forget seeing them perfom this live.

Masterpiece !!!

Superb group dare 😎😎😎😎
