Marillion - Script For a Jester's Tear (Fleesh Version) 

As a Marillion fan since 1981 I think this is a superb version. The geetar dude is awesome and the vocals are sublime

Bloody incredible version..the voice and the guitar playing …my god it’s amazing..

It's not only a great cover. You understood Marillion and Fish. Yes

This cover pays tribute to Fish and the rest of the members of Marillion, by making the recent generations aware about their legacy. I can listen to this cover over and over again.

J’ai découvert Fleesh il y a quelques semaines et franchement je n’ai jamais vu de covers à ce niveau …. Quel voix et quel musicien. Je ne peut m empêcher de les écouter et réécouter. Je suis fan de Marillion mais les autres covers sont également toutes plus belles les unes que les autres. Écouter play to the word de BJH et tant d autres …. Merci à vous et vive le Brésil c est beau de voir qu il n y a pas que le football.

I am extremely critical of ANYONE who covers Marillion, especially when English is not their first language and it's my favourite Fish era song but you guys fucking nailed it!!!! Sempre!

Holy shit, this is incredible. I am almost crying as I type this, this version really bring out the true meaning of the song

Sometimes it is important to remember what a fantastic song they wrote. I love this music so much❤❤ thanks

This is the sort of treasure you unearth when RU-vid is in a generous mood. Excellent, guys. The best Marillion cover I've ever heard

Absolutely amazing. Grew up with Marillion. And 33yrs later still fav band. Even made a lucky habbit of going to their iconic gigs like smoking ban, last before covid, first after covid. This is by far the best covers band av heard, by far.

I'm an avid Marillion fan since their debut. There has never been and probably never will be, a better cover for this song than this. Beautiful work to both of you. Keep up your truly amazing work.

as a die hard fish fan , this blows me away, hard for me to say but yes brilliant version

Amazing !!! Fantastic voice !!!!! From a lifelong Marillion fan. I cannot stop playing it💚🦋

Here is everything, in these long 8 minutes, you receive the best of Marillion, your feelings explode hypnotized before so much beauty in the interpretation of Gabby and Celo and their way of seeing music in general. In the end you are exhausted, crazy, happy ... very happy take good care of you friends

A very difficult song to sing Fish and H have struggled with it live on a few occasions this lady has nailed it great cover

Never thougt this particular song could ever be covered in any way. You guys proved me wrong. :)

Brilliant.....the voice of this muse send shivers down my spine

Damn, this is a fantastic cover!!!. The singer's voice it is so emotional!!

WHAT A PAIR ... I LOVE IT EVERYTIME.. don't think any real marillion fan could say that there's anything wrong with this...

As a fan of Marillion for 40 years and some, gotta say that I'm chuffed to bits that someone covers their songs

This song like all Fish era tracks is as personal to me as it gets. A fan since seeing them at their spiritual home, Maxwell Hall Aylesbury Friars 1982 onwards, through Lorelly 1987 and the final Fish shows Hammersmith 88. You guys have earned the right to recreate these classics. I'd love if you could record the entire 4 studio albums.

Don't know what to say...as an old time Marillion & Fish fan I almost got tears in my eyes of this beautiful version...no replacement of the original version of Marillion but a beautiful new version..gratz!

I can't get tired of listening to this version... my god you have created one of the most beautiful pieces of music I ever heard. Agree, the original is a piece of art already, but the femenine voice and mastery of the guitar is just out of this world... love you guys!

Yeah, you caught the soul of the song. Marillion and Fish made a masterpiece wich can transport to another dimension, and you got it

I wasn't expecting that. Wow. Faultless. Fantastic. Vocal is from another world...

...Fish...Marillion...Fleesh FOREVER!... Thank you for the music and fantastic voice!...

Your renditions of these old Marillion classics is immaculate and most beautiful. The instrumentals catch the essence of the songs while bringing fresh twists into it. And the voice ... holy macaroni ! Absolutely fabulous with a great range, tone and control.

Love this, this is the reason why I love RU-vid. Perfect cover of a perfect song of the greatest band ever (in my opinion....)

Guys, I don't get tired of listen you! Both of you do an amazing job!

I've seen Fish do this so many times. This is truly an amazing and sympathetic cover

Bonjour et amitié..(from Bonneville).. for the this version of Clutching At Straws ??🎸🏅🏅 NO Comment !! Parfait ! Magique. Et merveilleuse Voix !!🎼 BRAVO et Thank you

Wow! This is breathtaking. My favourite Marillion song and you have more than done it justice.

Beautiful version of this song. Its rare to find 2 young people putting so much passion into a song that's nearly older than the 2 of you put together.

Great musicianship and enchanting vocals

My second favourite band growing up; Derek will be very proud of your cover Fleesh ❤️

Absolutely amazing. Fish would like it, I guess! That guy playing all instruments - a genious!

A wonderful interpretation of a great song!!! I love this version! Thank you!

In a word. FANTASTIC!!!!! . A really difficult song and you tackled it with just brilliance.

Absolutely fantastic cover. She's voice is great.

I'm a Marillion-Fan since the first day. Many thanks for this wonderful cover-version of one of my favorites of Marillion

Can't stop playing this track, beautiful.

Until I discovered Fleesh, I never knew about Marillion. I listened to the Marillion tribute album and thought it was fantastic, but THIS track, is incredibly well done. The final section, from the 6:00 mark on, is so powerful that it stirs emotion. From the music, the lyrics and Gabby's vocals. Fantastically well done. ..."So I'll hold my peace forever, when you wear your bridal gown. In the silence of my shame, the mute that sang the siren's song."

Realy Loved this cover of Marillion ♥️

Damn that's a brilliant cover 🙏🌟 Thank you! You made my day! Post it to the band, please... I'm so happy that the youngsters discover Marillion and carry the torch 🔥

Oh wow I followed marillion up untill Fish left. Never bothered with them again. Nothing can compare to him. Untill I found you. This is a masterpiece as good as the original. Your voice is amazing and the playing is stunning. Very talented guitarist and musicians. I love it. 10 out of 10 . Mind blowing rendition this is.

This is outstanding. Thank you for the amazing songs.

A MOST MISUNDERSTOOD SONG BY FISH'S MARILLION, BUT IF YOU READ THE LYRICS IT PULLS IT ALL TOGETHER ON THIS DEBUT SONG AND ALBUM OF THE SAME NAME....LOVE FLEESH'S VERSION, SIMPLY BRILLIANTLY EXECUTED !!!!!!!

This is .... amazing! What a beautiful cover of a classic song. perfection!

Best cover I’ve ever heard

What an amazing cover! You really made this song your own. Love the voice and love the instrumental work!

agreed been listening to Marillion since the ‘80s, covers are rarely as good as this

How has this not got more views? Got goosebumps.

Great to see new generation playing covers for Marillions..im very impressed

Just found out about Marillion from a friend. I don't think I even heard Marillion do this song but this cover is amazing and beautifully sung. You have a wonderful voice, epic guitar. Love this. Thank you RU-vid. Forever grateful for follow the RU-vid.

Crikey guys you knocked this out of the park. Stunning. To hear a song that is so interwoven with my teenage years, performed with such heart and emotion is incredible. You are both awesome. Thank you so much!!

As someone who is obsessed with Marillion, I gotta say, your Marillion covers are insanely good and they have such an amazing quality to them. I kept finding myself coming back to these videos and I said to myself, I really wish they had all of these songs on CD... and then I saw that you sell them! lol so I just purchased the Marillion CD and I also added the Rush CD too. I haven't heard the Rush covers yet, but I want to be surprised when they come in the mail! Thank you so much for these amazing covers!

Yes, I can still say I love you... it’s amazing!

I would not have thought a cover of any sort, from anyone, could do justice to the original. Glad to be wrong. Fish's masterpiece will always stand alone, but this is excellent.

Fabulous! Watching and listening to this had me totally captivated, gave me chills up my spine-took me right back to 1983! A unique song.

What a talent from both great stuff love listening and watching them awesome i have seen many rock bands over the years and these are good ♥️♥️♥️

So much emotion......I love Marillion and fish......she captures all of the original passion and magic of the original but makes it her own.....she own it

De novo.... impressionante! Obrigado. Não dá para parar de ouvir.

Fucking hell... what a fantastic cover! Will definitely contribute to your Crowdfunding campaign, and will encourage friends and family to do so as well. Can't applaud loud enough. Gabby, your vocals are melodic, wide-ranging, have wonderful timbre and resonance, and more. You made numerous improvements without dishonoring Marillion's version. Not that Fish ever had a great voice; his lyrics and techniques were always his strong suit. Celo, you were also true and respectful of the original. As other commenters have said, stunning, amazing, excellent, awesome! Thanks very much for this wonderful rendition. Fucking hell, fucking hell!!!

The vocals the lyrics have always deserved

I love this oustandind, soulful, deeply interpretation of this legendary song from our Marillion!!! Well Done!!! Thankyou for this and i´m klistening closely your Art!!!

Just fantastic guys!!! I would listen for you for hours and hours. Great video editing too! You guys ROCK!!!!!!!!!!

Just wow! So impressed. Would never expect anyone dare attempt this song or ANY Marillion/Fish work. So impressed with vocals as well as beautiful guitar work! ❤

Fish was a singing poet, you are a singing angel

nice version. kudos! and long live Fish & Marillion for giving us such wonderful gems

Even more goose bumps than Fish version !

Never tought anyone could do this, it's been 35 years i listen to Marillion and Fish..... this is just awsome

Not an easy feat to cover a Marillion song. This is great work😀

This is giving me shivers down my spine. Absolutely great performance. Thank you!

Wow magnifique version!!! Une de mes préférés de Marillion. Ce groupe est ancré au plus profond de mon coeur Merci fleesh

Goosebumps….thanks….

This song is in my playlist ive herd you guys do it a hundred or more times and every single time, I get tears in my eyes and goosebumps. Masterful job on a wonderful song!!

OMG che maestria...unbelievable version. Una maestria totale.

You have your heart on the pulse of good music....you have identified what's good and what's false and put your heart and your inner self into it...wonderful covers..

I am a huge Marillion fan and actually met Fish a few years ago at a SNP function in Edinburgh. This is an amazing performance... Well done!

Those lyrics are absolutely genius 👏🎵🎵🎵

Magnificent!!! Have only listened to your Season's End performance previously which was incredible. But this version of one of their early masterpieces is on another level. Although melancholy as are the majority of Fish's lyrics, your interpretation Gabby adds a calm, sensitivity & tenderness that is a joy to experience, Bravo guys!!!

"Script for a Jester’s Tear" MARILLION So here I am once more in the playground of the broken hearts One more experience, one more entry in a diary, self-penned Yet another emotional suicide overdosed on sentiment and pride Too late to say I love you, too late to re-stage the play Abandoning the relics in my playground of yesterday I'm losing on the swings, I'm losing on the roundabouts I'm losing on the swings, I'm losing on the roundabouts Too much, too soon, too far to go, too late to play, the game is over The game is over So here I am once more in the playground of the broken heart I'm losing on the swings, losing on the roundabouts, the game is over, over Yet another emotional suicide overdosed on sentiment and pride I'm losing on the swings, losing on the roundabouts, the game is over Too late to say I love you, too late to re-stage the play The game is over I act the role in classic style of a martyr carved with twisted smile To bleed the lyric for this song to write the rites to right my wrongs An epitaph to a broken dream to exercise this silent scream A scream that's borne from sorrow I never did write that love song, the words just never seemed to flow Now sad in reflection did I gaze through perfection And examine the shadows on the other side of the morning And examine the shadows on the other side of mourning Promised wedding now a wake The fool escaped from paradise will look over his shoulder and cry Sit and chew on daffodils and struggle to answer why? As you grow up and leave the playground Where you kissed your prince and found your frog Remember the jester that showed you tears, the script for tears So I'll hold our peace forever when you wear your bridal gown In the silence of my shame the mute that sang the sirens' song Has gone solo in the game, I've gone solo in the game But the game is over Can you still say you love me Fonte: LyricFind Compositores: Derek William Dick / Mark Kelly / Michael James Pointer / Pete Trewavas / Steve Rothery Letra de Script for a Jester’s Tear © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC

WOW!!!!! I think Marillion itself couldn;t play it so well nowadays. Great job!!! Greetings from Poland :)

Been one of my favorite songs forever, you have done it justice

Amo esta canción... Su letra, su música son incomparables... Tensión, tristeza, alma... Transporta al escucharla... Marillion y Fish tremendo!! Gracias x hacer conocer a nuevas generaciones al mejor grupo de rock de los años 80... Por lejos muy lejos.

Une grande performance de voix et de mélodie . Suis fan de Marillion et de Fisch , rarement entendu de si belles reprises.
