Fish has never been over shadowed by any other lyricist in Rock History. Fish is a master poet and lyricist. I cannot name one other singer in rock music who's lyrics are even half as interesting.
I was lucky enough to see Fish in his first show in the US in SF in 2008. It kicked ass!!! It actually got transferred to a smaller venue because of a fire at the Fillmore. It was truly a classic night!!!
Fish is still the King... And luckily we have Hogarth who came along to save the band from the edge of obscurity. This band is indeed one of the greats - with Fish AND with Hogarth. Thanks to both!
Best singer and song writer ever! His deep and touching lyrics always make me full of motivation to think over lots of bad turns which I have took over during my lifetime. The only thing left for me to do, late night, all alone is to again lost in his complicated lyrics plots tanglet to the alcohol and love problems, by a candle and another glass of whiskey.... Best wishes to all Fish fans!
It's like the starfish analogy.......it matters for the one you throw back in....For me Fish is magical now as ever before.....and I always love his animated a la Joe Cocker style gesturing/posturing....NEMO IMPUNE LACESSITUS - rock on Derek !!!
Stunning show Pete. Best concert I've seen this year by a long shot. At the end of the show we handed Frank Usher (the lead guitarist) a copy of " Cooper Hill live at Barrymore's" so I'm sure that he and Fish are now big fans of the band!!!! Slainte Mhath!!!
Marillion without Fish is totaly fiddrent band... to bad they didn't changed their name after Fish left...Fish was the real deal!! brilliant singging and performence :-)
Agree 100% that Fish is a master lyricist. I just want to make mention of another great one, Neal Peart of Rush. Not for comparison. But only to say that they both are masters of their craft! Of course Neal does not sing his lyrics... but only writes them. But he's one hell of a drummer!
Me too. I can't make a choice. Both have so much going for them. Fish was fantastic, but H has also brought so much to Marillion. And if Fish had stayed, they would not have made such amazing albums as indeed Brave, Seasons End, and Marbles (which to me is good old school Marillion all over again, but then with the talent and versatility of H...), we got TWO different Marillions, and us fans are very lucky to have that...
Who are you to say something like that? Are you a music critic or is just because your girlfriend loves H? Marillion has gone down since the day Fish annouced his retirement from the band.
I love Fish ... But, he's only about 55 ... WHAT did this guy do to his voice? ? Could he get back any notes, if he worked with a professional voice coach?
What the hell are you on about? Better still, what the hell are you on? I'd think Fish has more talent in what little hair he has left than you might in your entire body.
Men you ARE SO WRONG!!!! Marillion is good now but NEVER like before, the quality of the songs now are very low compared to a White Rusian or Sugar Mice or the great Forgotten sons! YOU are SOOO WRONG! Take a pill and listen to Misplaced Childhood and write again.

Real Marillion Rules ! The other guy would never be able to fill Fishes shoes
Fish indeed the king of rock and roll frontmen. True genius in his stage presence. Been at it a long time, and he has perfected the art.
Great Mr Fish... I miss those "Marillion times"! Hope to see you together again one day!!!!
Canada Loves You Too Fish !!! Cheers!!!!
fish...i love you...great, great, great
He so is a master. Agreed. H in marillion now also has presence but of a different kind. A bow to them both.

Heavy drinking, smoking and drugs. It's a miracle that he didn't go under during the 80's.
eh morrissey
actually it sadeness me to hear him try to sing these songs his voice is shot
What the hell are you on about? Better still, what the hell are you on? I'd think Fish has more talent in what little hair he has left than you might in your entire body.
Stop talking about Fish or Hogarth.. both of them are great...
is Fish pished on this?
sorry mate - i mean Different!!!!
@S0lidSnail CIRCLES??????? hahahahahahahahahaha
Sure, he'll visit Canada but not Portland, Oregon.
What about Roger Waters?!
Name only one great album post Fish........
ALBUM not song
And yes I am a critic
Their isn’t one....no fish no Marillion.
Fish's voice is weaker than a mouse's fart
No more voice....
Sorry, I listened to some songs of the actual Marillion - boring! Marillion & Fish, thats the real deal!
Dfferent for worse.
Men you ARE SO WRONG!!!!
Marillion is good now but NEVER like before, the quality of the songs now are very low compared to a White Rusian or Sugar Mice or the great Forgotten sons!
YOU are SOOO WRONG!
Take a pill and listen to Misplaced Childhood and write again.
I listened to maybe 20 of their songs - not one was remarkable, nor can I recall any melody...boring, elevator music.
