My Top 20 Marillion Songs

This was made BEFORE Sounds That Can't Be Made was released.
To celebrate Marillion's first North American tour in many years, I have compiled a list of what I consider to be the top twenty Marillion songs of all time. Considering how many amazing albums they have, it was certainly difficult to narrow the choices down to 20. I hope you like my list--please let me know what I should have included.
20. He Knows You Know
19. Easter
18. When I Meet God
17. Incommunicado
16. Bitter Suite
15. The Lap of Luxury
14. Trap the Spark
13. The Last Straw
12. Assassing
11. Angelina
10. Afraid of Sunlight
9. Seasons End
8. Ocean Cloud
7. Out of This World
6. House
5. Berlin
4. The Great Escape
3. Incubus
2. Neverland
1. The Invisible Man
*I probably should have included Blind Curve and Happiness is the Road

All that said, 'The Invisible Man' may be my favorite by them ever....and I have been listening to these guys since the beginning.

[@Dittomist]

Yes! Power is an unbelievable song and it totally would have made this list. I love the other songs you mentioned as well. I finally got to see Marillion live back in June in San Francisco and it was one of the best concerts ever. It was the farthest I have traveled for a concert but it was definitely worth it.

[@Dalex61]

Great! Of course, when it comes to Marillion, you could choose almost every and each song of theirs... anyway, you put in 20 masterpieces, so I liked this video very much. Thanks for sharing (and compiling).

[@rogerwaters3165]

The song Script for a Jesters Tear is my favorite

[@damienferguson1060]

Same

[@rodricbr]

same

[@Upstairsforpete]

Hard to argue . i too love seasons end / marbles so take a bow, its obvious eveyone has their own faves so lets not fall out and just salute a brilliant band......

[@Helloween225]

Some interesting choices! I would have Forgotten sons, Kayleigh, Lady Nina, Cinderella Search, The Web and Fugazi somewhere in my list. Thanks for posting - enjoyed your top25 Helloween too

[@scarbelly1967]

Love strange engine and warm wet circles, Karma dude !

[@franciscorodriguesrodrigue3795]

this strange engine is my top five

[@bushiki85]

I think I agree with about 75% of this, so kudos to you seeing as opinion can range pretty widely :D This Strange Engine will always be my favourite though with Warm Wet Circles from the Fish-era (both missing from your list :D)

[@pmich13]

Somewhere Else !

[@Dittomist]

Thanks! Yeah, Tux On is a really cool song. And I was sad when I realized I didn't have any Holiday in Eden songs because I do like that album a lot--Cover My Eyes probably would have made my Top 21 list :)

[@knoxtaurigen]

Could you please add some more songs :) There are some songs missing, they are: Living With The Big Lie, Hard As Love, Dry Land, King, Real Tears For Sale, You´re Gone, Estonia, Uninvited Guest, This Strange Engine, Hotel Hobbies, 100 Nights, Kayleigh, Hooks in you, :D

[@Dittomist]

...and This is the 21st Century, Happiness is the Road, White Russian, Cover My Eyes, Waiting to Happen, Don't Hurt Yourself, Fantastic Place, Go, Blind Curve, Born to Run, Three Minute Boy, The Space, Somewhere Else, Power, Pour My Love, and The Sky Above the Rain :) So many great songs! Thanks for watching/commenting/sharing, Nadia!

[@leeloociernaga]

I think somewhere else is a must

[@Dittomist]

Good call on Somewhere Else, Viviana!. The final three minutes of that song is Marillion at its finest. "Woke up in a spaceship of shimmering gold, floating round in Orion, arrow pointing to heaven, between all the planets, out in the cold."

[@pedroguedes9478]

Gaza is AWESOME!

[@pedroguedes9478]

+Pedro Guedes Interior Lulu too!

[@Dittomist]

hehe, I thought people were going to tell me I didn't have enough Fish, since 14 out of the 20 songs here are Hogarth. Two songs I wish I had included now are Blind Curve and Happiness is the Road

[@RonG40]

I enjoyed this as both eras were included...The ratio is of no concern to me as much as to see there are people out there who are able to enjoy all of it. (Doesn't mean people have to, but the almost messianic devotion to either the Fish/Hogarth era has always bugged me....particularly since it usually escalates into a war of words.) I'd probably choose some different tracks but that's totally cool...With few exceptions, Marillion writes some great songs, in both eras.

[@mgoulet002]

My top 10 would be: Slainte Mhath, The Last Straw, Easter, The Space, The Great Escape, Gazpacho, Afraid of Sunlight, King, Man of a Thousand Faces, Estonia. My apologies to Neverland -- too anticlimactic for me -- needs some more modulation or reincorporation of the theme at the end.

[@MrAlbanlanfant]

ma preferer de marillion est sans aucun doute assassing,number 2 fugazi,3 chelsey monday,4script,5the last straws,6 incomunicado,7childood end,8 forgoten songs,9the web,10state of mind avec steve h this is my top 10

[@valangaok]

Ciao non avrei messo nella top20 Incommunicado, che secondo me è l'unica traccia trascurabile di un bellissimo album e avrei messo e avrei magari messo Chelsea Monday. Per il resto ottime scelte, aspettando il nuovo album!

[@Bulletproofmask7]

You might have to make some alterations now that Sounds That Can't Be Made is out. 'Gaza' in particular is one of the best things they've ever done.

[@mono14]

all hail fish and hogey

[@NikolaEON]

Fugazi is their best song

[@Burns1993Joe]

How can you miss out Kayleigh?

[@mono14]

if it wasnt for marillion i would have given up on music completely

[@mysorrow666]

Man, Lady Nina is THE black spot in Marillion's career. Bad no matter how you look at it. IMHO

[@gumbys]

Where's Beautiful????

[@vanhagar5150]

Too much Fish . . .
