Marillion - The Party

One lyrical and musical beauty! From Marbles on the road 2004 in London.

I can't believe that no-one has commented on this gem. Always one of my favourite tracks from "Holidays In Eden", I loved the way that, on the "Marbles" tour, it was slotted between "Bridge"/"Living With The Big Lie" from "Brave and "The Great Escape" from that same album, to create a kind of 'mini-Brave'. It fitted perfectly.

I use to sing this song on open mic when I was still alive.

[@caglobumo]

the description of that party is incredible, i almost be there.

[@tinahale9252]

I've lived these lyrics for a while when I met an enchanter once. I need to remember where I've been.

[@robertedge4183]

I was at this party! Number 1 at the end of the bar, an absolute masterpiece !

[@patrickbeal]

That's about the best comeback solo ever

[@simonwillis6902]

Reliving my youth, dam I forgot how fricking awesome and timeless Marillion are! The Fish era was great to but, post Fish is also just as, and then it was yesterday! So Im having another bottle of Dragons milk beer as its Friday and us old people don't like to sleep in case we don't wake. up! X

Its about that first time you get into something when you're young. When you don't really know what's going on and maybe you're a bit out of your depth. We've all been there as a teenager, with all these new experiences hitting you all at once. First its exciting and then you begin to get a bit scared when the realisation of what you've done comes home to you. Just such a great story, one of the things that Hogarth is very good at, a small personal story. @marooned007

It was out of this world in 1991 and it's even better now.

[@gothicqueen4410]

Wow!

[@daiob1]

This should have been released as a single, classic Marillion, lyrics awesome, we've all been to parties!!

[@Snyckers72]

love this song, whole album got me through my teens

[@simonthetford5500]

Love this song

[@trickers69]

Should be played loud ,always gives me shivers down the spine

[@Ujio1948]

Well i was wondering why nobody did comment this magical video. The party has always been an underrated track from my point of view, just because the fans found it "too much commercial" with the HIE album. So thanks for your comment and cheers!

[@katemurphy1915]

Beautiful performance!!!.

[@Neueregel]

[@msceltic007]

Often play this then play (after me).Don't know why.But they sound great together,sort of a mini mini LP

[@awanna3203]

Guess you had to be there! x

[@wb1gjk]

SWEET

[@ANootje67]

briljant - as they played it on W-09!

[@patrickbeal]

She bought a bottle of cider..

[@juliocesarsanchez8920]

before...

[@Argesch]

Gruß an die Lucy!

[@flesceller]

this album was a tentative to seduce mainstream public but it litteraly failed. Plenty of 3mn songs with pretty commercial options... except this one and Splintering Heart. In my own opinion.

[@flesceller]

that was "holidays in eden" in 1991... the very best song of this pretty bad album
