I love Marillion since Fish era. They started very early breaking barriers using the internet to communicate directly with their audience. For me they used to be the best band in the world, but now they are simply the greatest chaps in the world who make the best music there is.
This 6 episodes of "Meet the Band" tells me once again, why I love them sooooo much and why being a fan for the last 36 years. Marillion is really something special in the world of music business. They are my favorite band for now and forever.
A few months ago a friend's 20 yr old daughter asked if I knew any decent 80s bands. I went to the car and got Misplaced Childhood and told her "From Pseudo Silk Kimono onwards it is the best life story committed to music in the history of music and in the top 3 of the best albums ever written". Yesterday she messaged me saying "You're wrong. It's in the top one of best albums ever written". She's now listening to The Waterboys and The Alarm.
No idea why I got so emotional watching a video about a band I’ve never seen but care so much about!!! It must be all those kind words they say about each other (they feel like a real family) and just maybe the thought; I’ll never get to see them in my lifetime but in the few years I’ve known them what a lifetime they’ve given me!😀 (they don’t come to Nashville much)
Most of the comments by the band mirror what I expected. I think it is wonderful that they are like a family, and I feel that energy when I listen, which is one of the reasons that when my life is a mess, Marillion is my go-to for a pick-me-up. It’s no surprise that the relationship they have with their fans and their fans have with each other is so strong. They come across as genuine human beings, whether it’s on videos like this or meeting them in person at a gig. That unassuming quality is worth it’s weight in gold.
A dear friend turned me onto Marillion back in 198somthing while we were taking a hike through the foot hills in Maryland.. It Was A "TRIP" I'll never forget ! Thank you my dear , have loved this band since....
Thank you for such a candid, personal round of comments. It feels like being part of a big family. And indeed, they are all very talented in their own way.0
Very thoughtful and insightful video of the fab 5. My own brief opinion on each member.... Steve R...total legend, as good as any of rock's great guitarists. Mark...brilliant, creative, thoughtful keyboardist. Pete...total workaholic. Brilliant musician. Up there with Chris Squire and Geddy Lee. H...Great and unique vocalist. But criminally underrated lyricist. Over 3 decades of brilliantly thoughtful, accessible lyrics. Ian...Still think he should be President...!!
Fascinating, such a great band, fish and steve hogarth, and such a great bunch of guys, I'm 56 and have been a fan since i was a child, thanks for this insight.
This is the greatest band in my World.. can ser i'm not the only one.😘 I have listened to Uriah Heep for 45 years. Have tought so many times , No band will ever give me , what they did. After my friend told me: Listen to Marillion..think you Will like it. They are fenomenal, and when i hear them, i see why, i changed. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️😀
There's so much in my mind and heart about these guys and I don't think I can bring it all out in writing, in a meaningful way. So I'll just say this: I love them all as if I know each personally for long long years, I love what they do, I love their bond between and I admire the respect they have for their fans. They are my number one and I wish them long healthy years, enjoying each other's company. Even if they stop writing new music today, I'd be grateful for all the joy they already brought into my life with their art since 1985, when I was just 17. ❤
Amazing band, amazing artists, doing something they want and not controlled by a record company. Thank you H, Pete, steve, mark, ian and lucy for giving us what comes from the heart in music. I love you all. Have done so for a long time. Love linda j martin.
Great people and great musicians, all blend together make some of the best music ever,and the best concerts.thank you guys for the evening tonight,and tomorow and after.😁🤗
A very honest and candid interview. I like the fact they are frank enough to not hide their emotions. Amazing they've stayed together this long. I first saw them in '89 and Steve H just joined, nearly 32 yrs later I'm hoping to see them again incredibly at the same venue (Covid willing). We'll done gents and thank you for the uploads.
its quite funy when Polish 36 old man going to see Marillion in UK. Everybody around can understand every single word with some of them I struggle, but I still like to watch them and be a part of this spectacular Event.
Marillion should be much bigger...or not he he, might be what makes them the jewel what they are, they never get boring and the music always hit me in the heart, one of my favorite bands, really look forward to the next album
Marillion provide an excellent example how we can all learn to get along and create wonderful things together, in spite of our differences. The world needs to follow their example more often.
More since 30 years i love your music and also i love you all for your spirit and your sound ! Thank you for your work. Best wishes from Bavaria in Germany.
I actually feel very blessed and extremely fortunate to have discovered Marillion many years ago. They are not only my favorite band but really, the only music I listen too. They can soothe you on so many different levels and bring your emotions to soaring highs and sometimes bring a tear to your eye. If you are a fan of beautiful, creative, emotional music and have not discovered Marillion....you really missed out on something special.
Aww, I feel the love, guys. And this is why we all love you so much. Best band ever. And, H, should you ever want to duet with a classically trained contralto... keep me in mind!!!
Listening about what they think of each other, we can see that they are like a family, good friends. And for this reason they do the excellent music that they play. They're like Rush, with an understanding between each other that is difficult to find. Long live!
You guys are the perfect blend of talent, passion, humility, integrity, chemistry, sense and sensibility which materializes itself into such an inspiring music. I can only name few bands which epitomize all this greatness... RUSH is one of them (I think you encountered them while touring around 1986 ☺️). Love you guys, you've been the soundtrack of my life since 1986 🤘
I’m a relatively new fan and I love this band. Can’t wait to see them live. I have a few friends who’ve followed this band for years and I’m now just like them. I hope to either go to the CTTE or preferably to one of the weekends in PZ or Montreal.
I was watching the video and I was thinking about an idea for new album... It will really beautiful to hear the album that represents your experience of the unity in the band through music and friendship and expanding it to global metaphors ... Your talent, your friendship and what makes you unite beyond words, the music 🌻 Really I get more than just a high quality music... It's more than that
Hogarth has the only voice that has made me cry. If u like a bands music don't dwell on before and after. Live in the moment. A song is only as good as it is in your own head.
Finally had chance and time to sit down and really watch this in detail, and i absolutley love it! I think it is a fantastic idea for an upload and it gives us a real better sence of knowing what each one of the members are like in all honesty...fantastic! Sonique , manchester x
Começo meus comentários, da mesma forma que terminarei... Marillion❤️ Meu Eterno Amor Musical!🎶🎸 Li todos os comentários, me emocionei com quase 100% dos mesmos. É muito bom encontrar e ler coisas de pessoas que nunca vi, a respeito do mesmo sentimento por uma banda, melhor dizendo..."Marillion a melhor de todas as bandas" Rapazes...Amo vocês. Não passo um só dia, desde que meu gostar(Fish), evoluiu para Paixão, e Amor(Hogarth), ao ouvir os primeiros acordes de "Easter". Rapazes...gosto vocês, desde 1985, mas a partir de 1989 Amo, vocês são a trilha sonora da minha vida. Assisti a 4 shows de vocês em São Paulo/Brasil. Sou de Santos/SP, vocês vieram na minha cidade, quando soube, quase tive um colapso de tanta felicidade. No primeiro show que assisti da banda, fui sozinho. Nos últimos dois shows, fui com meu filho mais velho, que adora vocês por causa do Amor que ele vê em mim, toda vez que eu os ouço. Ele se encantou com a simpatia de todos vocês no primeiro show que assistiu, aos 11 anos de idade. Tirou foto com Steve Rothery, e por pouco não foi ao camarim da banda. Eu achei que já tinha sentido toda felicidade ao vê-los pela primeira vez, mas ver a Felicidade nos olhos do meu filho ao assisti-los e vê-los tão perto...apenas reforçou a certeza que o Amor que tenho por vocês é impossível dizer que apenas um determinado momento foi o mais feliz da minha vida, pois vocês provam o contrário a cada show, álbum, entrevistas(como essa pérola de video), enfim tudo o que vocês criam e produzem geram a mais perfeita alegria na minha Alma. Obrigado Rapazes...por tudo.🙏 Gostaria de ter tudo a respeito de vocês, vídeos, álbuns, bonés, camisetas, shorts, botons, lenços, enfim...tudo mesmo! Retornem a São Paulo/Brasil, por favor. Amo tudo isso! Marillion❤️ Meu Eterno Amor Musical.🎶🎸
I would like to buy you all shirts with The Little Rascal cast on them... H gets Alfalfa the Crooner, Mark gets Baby Wheezer, Steve gets Spanky, Ian gets Froggy, Pete gets Petey the dog...
What does it mean to say that someone is a “musical drummer”? I truly don’t understand this. Aren’t all drummers by definition musicians and thus musical?
Marillion are simply a great bunch of kind and thoughtful greats!
I love Marillion since Fish era. They started very early breaking barriers using the internet to communicate directly with their audience. For me they used to be the best band in the world, but now they are simply the greatest chaps in the world who make the best music there is.
How can anyone not love this band, awesome musicians that have a rare creative chemistry that works so perfectly! Love them!
Favorite band of all time
Me too.

Incredible band. Great bunch of blokes
Ian's sweet smile and voice always melts my heart!
Brave, Marbles, FEAR ... these 5 have made some of the best music of the last 30 years! Only a few other bands have this sane magical chemistry.
This is a RIGHT BAND,you can clearly tell they have the utmost respect for each other. Fantastic.... I can't wait to see them again.
I just love you Marillion!😊😊😊😊😊😊
Ian: "They're all a bunch of bastards."
I love this band!
One of the best and most creative enduring bands ever. Long may it last

You put my exact thoughts into words. Thanks 🙏
Can you get to Montreal next year? It's well worth it!

Soooooooo lucky that last year was a non-touring year. The atmosphere at gigs when touring can happen once more, will be extra special. Can't wait
There's so much in my mind and heart about these guys and I don't think I can bring it all out in writing, in a meaningful way. So I'll just say this: I love them all as if I know each personally for long long years, I love what they do, I love their bond between and I admire the respect they have for their fans.

Very moving video watching them speak so lovingly about each other.

Now we need the follow-up: the guys from Marillion react to this video.
Yeah great idea!
its quite funy when Polish 36 old man going to see Marillion in UK. Everybody around can understand every single word with some of them I struggle, but I still like to watch them and be a part of this spectacular Event.
The best band in the world and the band of my heart ❤️
What a lovely watching this was! I totally adore these guys. Can´t wait to see them live again.
Cant wait to see the Band in October in Frankfurt-again🥰
Marillion should be much bigger...or not he he, might be what makes them the jewel what they are, they never get boring and the music always hit me in the heart, one of my favorite bands, really look forward to the next album
Marillion provide an excellent example how we can all learn to get along and create wonderful things together, in spite of our differences. The world needs to follow their example more often.
This is why you gentlemen are so loved and respected. I'm deeply honored I've had the chance to see you play live, and hope to see you again soon.
More since 30 years i love your music and also i love you all for your spirit and your sound ! Thank you for your work. Best wishes from Bavaria in Germany.

Love you guys, you've been the soundtrack of my life since 1986 🤘
I agree, Rush and Marillion are in a class of their own!
I agree. Rush is the only other band I would even consider, in regards to fan loyalty and adoration....in comparison to Marillion.
Really interesting. They obviously have a great chemistry and will no doubt be together until they can play no more!
I love these guys.
Loved their music since 1982 kept me going through the years
If it wasn't that brilliant or magical, you could have faked it for all those years. Thank you for making it that extraordinarily wonderful!
I’m a relatively new fan and I love this band. Can’t wait to see them live. I have a few friends who’ve followed this band for years and I’m now just like them. I hope to either go to the CTTE or preferably to one of the weekends in PZ or Montreal.
Have loved you boys since the day that I found your music! Over 20 years ago.....inspiring me and the band I play in to make beautiful sounds!
Can’t love these more. Thanks, gents.
I was watching the video and I was thinking about an idea for new album...
It will really beautiful to hear the album that represents your experience of the unity in the band through music and friendship and expanding it to global metaphors ...

Love you guys so much!!!
Best band ever!!
My Favorite band
I love this band, and have done for 30 years
Hogarth has the only voice that has made me cry. If u like a bands music don't dwell on before and after. Live in the moment. A song is only as good as it is in your own head.

Salut les gars...Admiration for you alll lovely lads!!! prosit🍻
Marillion Forever Forever Marillion
Great content, keep them coming!
Very insightful. Nice chaps 😀.
Love you guys, you are the best!!!
Liked (loved) subscribed and hit the notification button. 👍🇦🇺
Great fellas
Didn't they come close to splitting during Sounds That Can't Be Made? Sure I read that somewhere. Glad they didn't! Love 'em. ❤️
I love this
Looking forward to seeing the band here in Belo Horizonte MG Brazil. Espero que até lá a pandemia e Bolsonaro tenham passado.
This was great
4:33 "He comes with great parts with no effort... which is really annoying".
I just died a little.
H es un loquillo jajajjaja
A musical bassplayer and a reliable drummer?? ...what a strange band indeed :-D
I would like to buy you all shirts with The Little Rascal cast on them... H gets Alfalfa the Crooner, Mark gets Baby Wheezer, Steve gets Spanky, Ian gets Froggy, Pete gets Petey the dog...
Shit hits the fan:
Mark - Calls Ian.
H- Calls Ian.
Pete - Calls Ian.
Steve - Hey Ian, whats up ?
I didn't know Jeffrey from Rainbow played drums in Marillion 😁
You're all too nice.
I’d love the 5 ppl (currently) who put thumbs down to explain what on earth there was to dislike about this video. I mean, wtf.
They obviously meant to hit the thumbs up but missed it. 😉
I thought this would finally be the time someone 'outed' Mark : )
So basically.. everybody calls Ian and Ian calls Rothers :)
Where the hell is that bathtub guy???
Marillion's Bi Lighting game has been strong lately.
What does it mean to say that someone is a “musical drummer”? I truly don’t understand this. Aren’t all drummers by definition musicians and thus musical?
I think that they mean that he plays very melodic and always in support of the song. No crazy drum fills or things like that.
Haha Hogarth is a funny man who doesn't take himself to seriously..
Did he just admit to being a womanizer 😗
When Fish left it was over ... H is no replacement at all
Fish is a poet , H is just a singer
