My favourite band of all time covering my favourite Christmas song of all time!!!! Simply beautiful!!! Thank you guys and Nadolig Llawen!!! Merry Christmas to you all!! 🎄🎅🎄
Fantastic. Brilliant. Emotional. This version did Greg Lakes’ original massive justice without losing the power of the message being portrayed. Well done Marillion and merry Christmas to all xx
It's a great version of probably my favorite Christmas song of all time. The video is really lovely also.. except I still see Greg sitting in the Israeli desert with camels crossing behind him. I miss him a lot.
Maybe only MARILLION is able to improve a fantastic 48 years old (!) Christmas song, keep the original spirit alive and add the gorgeous modern MARILLION sound. Thank you very much for each single revisited Christmas song over the last years! MARILLION FOREVER!
Excelente, una de mis bandas favoritas Marillion, con la voz de Hogarth que transmite cada sentimiento en su interpretación 👏, a pesar que amo la banda con Fish con su tan, pero tan poderosa voz. Maravilloso tributo a Greg Lake (ELP), mi banda favorita con una voz dantesca. Desde mi Chile paradisíaco y poético, un caluroso saludo de navidad para todo el mundo melómano 🎶. Mi regalo para ustedes el tema de Jethro Tull "God rest ye merry gentlemen". 🎶
Ian Mosley makes this cover for me! He seems like a diamond geezer in the sense he would be equally at home on a building site as he would rubbing shoulders with rock stars!! 👌
To each member of the band, your work, eyes and hearts have given us another perfect moment in life. Greg Lake is indeed listening with joy in his heart.
Stunning and joyful. A great way to mark the holidays and give us all hope for the new year. Thanks for giving Greg Lake's tune a new life. Maybe Greg and the rest of ELP will get the credit they deserve as some of the greatest musicians of the 20th century
WOW - Wonderful version of the best Christmas single ever by the greatest band ever. A poem I wrote about Greg in 2002, which he kindly signed for me: In ‘69 with Crimson, to me he was King, Fripp asked him to play bass and wanted him to sing. He Talked to the Wind and craved for Cat Food, Though later got arrested for swimming in the nude. He joined Keith and Carl at the dawn of a new decade, So no more Epitaph or Cadence and Cascade. His popularity soared on record and on stage, As he sang about a Sheriff, Father Christmas and The Sage. He’s highly skilled on guitar be it twelve strings, six or four, No trucks full of gear, just a Persian rug on the floor. “ Oh what a Lucky Man “ he sang to us all, Then later: C’est La Vie, Pirates and So Far to Fall. I’ve loved his music for so long, he feels like a friend, For me I hope and pray his show will never end.
I can’t believe Greg penned that song in the seventies. Brilliant cover guys you couldn’t have picked a better song, you really do it justice, I loved it.
Es una excelente version de un grupo progresivo....recordando al gran GREG LAKE..ELP....la melidia se ha convertido en un clasico de estas fechas navidenñas.....para reflexionar....Atenco México 🎉
The best ever Christmas song done by the best ever band , just fantastic. And i believe in Marillion . On Boxing Day till New Year’s, by tradition I always play Reel to Real / Brief Encounter and Made Again 😂
Bèh Gran BELLA VERSIONE del classico NATALIZIO di EL&P, I BELIEVE IN FATHER CHRISTMAS da parte dei MARILLION , davvero molto buona da parte della band di STEVE ROTHERY!!!!! Senza dimenticare il contributo al brano dato da un certo PROKOFIEV!!!!!! Da parte dei MARILLION è oltre che un bel brano di carattere natalizio è anche un modo per ricordare il GRANDE indimenticabile GREG LAKE rip che credo sia anche l'autore del brano ispiratogli come detto prima da un certo PROKOFIEV.
Happy Xmas to all Marillions all over the world. And to all mankind, we need it.
Who is here again this Festival? Happy Holidays Marillion and Fans.
Merry Christmas to you all and all the best for 2024
It's like that with Marillion... I haven't even heard the song yet and I've already pressed the like button.
Thank you gents. We miss you in the USA.
Greg probably approved 100%. LOVELY.
I bought the original version by Greg Lake in the 70,s. The marillion version is the best cover I have heard. Long live Marillion and ELP.
Rothery solo from @3:35 is what this song has always needed ⛄
It's the return of the e-bow!
I sold my Escort XR3i to Steve Rothery in 1985.
one of the Steves.... can you name the others I am thinking of?
thank you for keeping this wonderful song alive
My favourite band of all time covering my favourite Christmas song of all time!!!! Simply beautiful!!! Thank you guys and Nadolig Llawen!!! Merry Christmas to you all!! 🎄🎅🎄

Beautiful. (No pun intended.)

The best cover version of Greg Lake's classic Christmas song I have heard. Beautiful!
Have you heard Honeymoon Suite's cover?
Ian Mosley makes this cover for me! He seems like a diamond geezer in the sense he would be equally at home on a building site as he would rubbing shoulders with rock stars!! 👌
Well done guy's.
Listening for the first time. Excellent. Merry Christmaa all

A Rothery solo is never going to detract from a song is it. Well done chaps.
Steve Rothery sencillamente genial como ningún otro..
