In 1987 i wanted to be there 34 years later and i still wish i had. I still know this amazing song word for word, yet ask me what i had for tea last night! Fish was a lyrical genius and a natural frontman, Fugazi is still my favourite album. Thank you for posting this great video.
The reason Marillion are still active and a leading band in progressive rock is because they made an evolution after Fish left. They would be dead if Fish would have remained. A great era with him ...that is no doubt but bands need to evolute
Although "Assasin" was Marillion's ever Hightlight in the Song-Structure and their History - I hate so much such Videos with people in it holding up their hands and clapping in blind extasy - it reminds me truly of Fascism. This is therefore so tragic, that Marillion stole all their Concept-Ideas by early GENESIS and Peace-Loving Peter Gabriel. (Pat, Switzerland)
patcharisma when have you ever known of fascism,how does a song remind you of something that you have never lived through...all music is stolled from somewhere,god,just enjoy
+patcharisma Please check out Pink Floyd and Peter Hammill, Marillion stole at least as many ideas from them as Gabriel actually. And don't bother watching Queen or David Bowie's scene-stealing performances at Live Aid either when they had the audience holding up their hands and clapping in blind ecstasy. It's called stadium rock.
