Marillion - Lavender

[topseyshakehands]

What a song 85 i think,when i was a young lad this was happy times for me,now my son is 27 and fighting in the dusty dessert somewhere,please god be safe,

[Zzyyxxyyxx]

There it is...the dreaded kilt.

[lucillaPax69]

bellissima! Molti all'epoca pensavano erroneamente che i Marillion fossero la brutta copia dei Genesis. Non sono d'accordo, hanno un loro stile!

[darakuT]

@lucillaPax69 Si infatti...i Genesis erano troppo datati, invece i Marillion erano perfetti per gli anni '80. Peccato che in pochi cercarono di imitarli...

[MrIlovesyria]

I am 80s fans ..love this song...No more decade with excellent songs and arts like the 80s. Now copycat and remake..out of ideas?

[horse2529]

FANTASTYCZNE

[lucisuciu]

....I remember listening first time Marillion in '86 , just after the Chernobil explosion....and both produced same long lasting tremendous effect in my brain

[MrsMelanieSixx]

Oh I fucking love this song. Such good memories with me and my dad when I'm listening to this. <3

[LongDrivesAtNight]

I remember when this song came out in the 80s, eating breakfast getting ready to go to school, and one of the tv channels (NTV.....Newfoundland Canada) would play this video quite often. Not a music channel, they would just play it part of the commercial break between the morning newscast.

[Rtoipasaluk]

Fuck them both Yankees and Brits

[mjuzikczanel]

niesamowite.....

[cafoce1322]

96 dipshits with no taste hate this amazing song



[valteruno1]

grazie Fish

[Douniaafarah]

I think I just fell in love with Fish. His eyes, his voice.. And i'm 14, so maybe it isn't good at all lol. But what a lovely song..

[1972henderson]

@Douniaafarah fish is pure magic. i saw him sing this in 1983. and it remains timeless!

a great poet and unmistakable voice. and he still sings today. on his own, but still beyond compare.

[yottskry12]

@Douniaafarah Not to mention he's more than 20 years older now than he was in that video!

[danny1978ification]

96 dicks that dont know thier elbows from thier ass holes lmfao

[spank2811]

one of the best albums in history. unreachable. just fantastic.

[999nav999]

For trip

[geiramk]

What's going on here..? Thought it was some innocent 80's Marillion stuff I was looking for and I find myself in the prelude to WWIII...

[KingSoupD]

I come to this video's comment section expecting the usual Marillion/Fish love, instead there appears to be an Anglo/Pole war.

[shotsof1963]

@KingSoupD and as ever.... this tiny but Great little island will prevail......

[geiramk]

@shotsof1963

Sorry to disappoint. Have nothing against Britain's earlier very successful history, but the parameters haver changed quite a bit since:

1. Britain is no longer the preeminent empire on the planet

2. Britain has to import a large amount of food to keep its population fed and happy

3. North Sea Oil is on a downward trend

4. Britain is dependent on a growing debt load to tread water.

Sorry to say, but nowhere is immune... All us in the West need to get poorer!

[shotsof1963]

@geiramk 1) Britain doesnt have to be the preeminent empire on this planet... empires cost greatly to defend and run... was always more efficient to divide and rule.... and besides name one empire remaining....

2) Food imports are mainly to cater to taste not a neccessity

3)South Atlantic oil prospects are on a massive up trend

4)Brttish debt is pennys compared to most of the Eurozone...

5)communism is dead mate.... Marx was always aware Capitalism would win through.

[geiramk]

@shotsof1963

Hey, reckon I disagree on points 1 through 4

1. There is a reason why the US is now trying to control oil in the Mid-East

2. Even in WW2 Britain needed to import food (and imagine the effect if artificial fertilizer doubles in price due to oil costs...)

3. Yeah... even if it is the case, who in their own right mind will argue that oil is not a finite resource..?

4. But still depenent on one of the largest deficits... So growing...

5. Sure, just as all isms..

5.

[sjgbrighton]

gorgeous

[Bfjoll]

He sounds like Phil Collins. I dig this song.

[Podmiddy]

Polish women are hot, I don't think that has ever been said of the English :)

[reddevil70]

@Podmiddy slaves from a third world country

[afusake]

wow, znowu jestem na szkolnej dyskotece i żadna dziewczyna tak nie pachnie jak moja !

[Feliphe47]

it's interesting to see people arguing about which country was the best by sending 20 yr old men to fight for politic and economic reasons, while the "important people" kept laughing at everyone. go ahead, you dumbasses...

[reddevil70]

@Feliphe47 usa sent them at 17 .:)

[RossHolder1]

[skreczujacasurykatka]

Why Fish and the boy from Kayleigh are wearing a British Army uniform from 19th century?!

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka maybe because he is british !!!!!!!!!!!

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 so what of it he might as well wear a bowler hat and flag UK. But he was dressed in Victorian military uniform, or it may have something to do with the idea to the album The Beatles-"Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"?

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka Dont loose sleep over it kid !!

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 This is not the answer for my question!

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka yawn

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka silly yank cunt !! fuk america....... laughing stock of the world........... got yer arses kicked by little vietnam........... hahaha. your all like bush............ thick as fuk !!!!!

[skreczujacasurykatka]

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 you are funny I like you :)

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka ENGLAND !! and the world speaks OUR language !!

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 because English is simple and uncomplicated as you. besides, the whole world does not speak English, but Chinese (Mandarin) is the largest language. Guess the pursued I greet you: "spierdalaj".

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka OUR language is the best thats why everyone who matters speaks it. Even fools like you .

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 and even fool like you. you are silly and stupid as well :)

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka thick cunt !!!!!!!!!!

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 thick cunt in ENGLAND

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka you eastern european peseant......... shitty little country !! youre nothing to me .

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 In my great country Im not peseant but you are lazy incompetent niggro :)

We win on Wembley with your shitty england.

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka your a peaseant especially with a shit name like that. lmfao

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 If Poles would not had helped you, Britain were lost the battle of Britain and Germany were annexed your country and built several concentration camps in which you will lived. Russia and Poles defeat Germans and captured Berlin, when the British barely entered on germany territory, you lossers.

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka silly twat !!! learn yer history ............ oh sorry poland dont have any history because you have never done fuck all !!!!!!

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 you are funny. Our history is richer than yours you viking scum basterds. The British have always lived on an island isolated from the continent because they are so ugly and primitive that the rest of the world dissociated from them. Even God has so willed that the British isolated from the world on island only had contact with more (from them) civilized beings-animals. In your country's citizens are a monkey is not it :)

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka theres no such thing as god ???? you thick polish bastard !!!!!!!! religion is bollocks !!!!!!!!!!! SHITHOLE poland............... hahaha

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 tell that to all British believers. There is no such thing as atheism just stupidity like you. A large majority of Britons are believers because each of themsupport me but not you madman. citizenship and language that not guarantees you automatically integrate with compatriots.

I believe and I know that the devil will fuck you in the ass in hell.

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka RELIGION IS A JOKE !!!!! if u believe theres an old man with a white beard up in the sky looking down on you then yer even more stupid than i thought you were !!!!!!!!!!! THICK POLISH PESEANT .

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 YOU ARE JOKE !!!

I will not teach you the basics of understanding religion, but I'll give a little advice, do not interpret literally what is written in the Bible, you must read to understand its meaning and only a fool like you will not understand it. If I am a Polish peasant as a peasant I can communicate in your language but you oaf can speak and think only in English(in your schools only teach you the ksenofoby).Stop humiliated yorself because you are a finite moron.

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka RELIGION STINKS !!!!!! its the cause of all the wars in history and now.............. its for very sad peaplre who are weak and gives them something to fall back on . PATHETIC. RULE BRITTANIA !!!!!!!!!

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 God how stupid you are. Wars, for example, the Crusades were a officially pretext for opening conflicts with "infidels" to defend the Christian faith, but it was not a real reason. Yet you say about hunting witches and inquisition, moron. This was happened in the Middle Ages also in UK (The UK was the most religious excesses, and processes), jerk. Read books but not limited to the English scientists (most of the idiots), but for instance the Polish scientists. BRITANNIA LOSERS !!!!!!

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka get a life you silly little polish slave............ religion is bollocks .!!!!

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 I employ slaves from Britain to clean my house and clean my toilet, poor scum from kickapoo :)

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka poles come to England coz there country has fuk all....... haha

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 No, they go there to pick your jobs and come back with a pile of pounds to the Poland, suckers :)

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka religion stinks and is bollocks ..............

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 suck some priest dick biatch !

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka religion is bollocks

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 bollock is your second name :)

[afusake]

@skreczujacasurykatka hardkor : )

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka all the poles died in concentration camps .......

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 haha you funny I am a Pole and I live like my country. Your country is dieing by emigrants and crissis of economy, Poland Rules :)

All British are stupid and gay :)

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@skreczujacasurykatka Poland fought and overthrew communism when the cowardly Brits sitting on his ass and watched as the United States.

[shotsof1963]

@skreczujacasurykatka poland did fuck all but roll over and get buttfucked by the Nazis and The Commies..... England may be a shithole.... but we never dodged a war yet.... unlike you boys leaving your own lands instead of rebuilding it...

[MrScotia]

@shotsof1963 I'm Scottish and Scotland has a long and proud history with Poland stretching back centuries. Poland lost 30% of her population during WW2 and they did rebuild a country from ruins. However, the Poles who have come over to Scotland/England now a days are nothing but economic migrants and have pushed the crime rate right up. How many times on the news do we see Polish people involed in murders cases. 5 in Scotland in the past 3 years alone. And they take local jobs.

[MrScotia]

@skreczujacasurykatka Excuse me Poland did not overthrow communism. Poland was part of the Warsaw Pact and it was the collapse of the USSR which freed Poland. I don't remember any poles going out to fight to end communism?? Now your daft 3rd rate country is playing the USA off Russia over the missile shield. Don't expect us in Scotland to come and rescue you if Russia decided to flatten you. I ain't fighting Poland's war. Little upstarts.

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@skreczujacasurykatka See "Man of Iron / Człowiek z żelaza (1981)" then say.

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka all the poles are over here kid !!! couldnt wait to get out of that shithole third world country called poland . Even the germans got rid of u all in 1940 s ........... haha

[skreczujacasurykatka]

@reddevil70 are you retarded?!

[reddevil70]

@skreczujacasurykatka yeah i come from poland. otherwise known as a shithole, where even there own peaple escape and come to ENGLAND.

[garstychia]

thumbs up if nighty night brought you here!

[simbad909]

only really rediscovering these guys now .. i passed on them in the 80's .. shame on me.... and i can only guess why the media mistreated these guys thru the years was because all the slander and bad reviews were in fact aimed at the myopic and sardonic media itself...for the band just wanted to do their thing and the media wanted to pigeon hole them which they couldnt.... no one likes a sucky suck.

[Giamerico]

Genesis = the genesis of all

[philogalley]

trop boooooooooo....

[imissthe80s100]

i've seen Fish/Marillion at Easter Road many times.

He's a big Hibernian FC supporter... GGTTH.

[TheFreemanDemon]

[l2XMetalX2l]

@TheFreemanDemon me too

[MegaGoldeng]

[bakersfieldmusicnow]

niiiiice



[studionous]

A penny for your thoughts...

[MegaGoldeng]

@studionous absolutely amazing song!!! p.s they are my thoughts now wheres my penny lol

[bmwcupe]

muzyka lat mlodzienczych 10 na 10 

[solidaruch]

@bmwcupe mam to samo: music from my green years. Za oknami głeboka komuna w fazie schyłkowej, na decku Fish. To se ne vrati, szkoda.

[midobecker1]

Great Memories. First time I heard of Marillion, I was living in Venezuela back I the 80's. Big Fan.

[martestudio]

So weird. I was there all through the 80's. Thought I knew the words of every song and all the bands, but I don't think I ever heard any song from this band or ever heard of a band called "marillion".... am I confused. Is this band really from the 80's? Are they like world famous for a particular song that maybe I haven't found yet?

[ISOAR]

@martestudio I am 99% sure you're American and not all great music makes it to America.

[mskjhenry]

@martestudio

Well I named my daughter Kayleigh after one of their songs in 1986.  In my world, a great 80's band.

[geiramk]

@martestudio

I'm amazed you got through the 80's without hearing them ever- they were my all time favourites from the time, and those were my glory days. Amyway, I'm sure you've searched them in the meantime and found out exactly how excellent they were! Happy listening!

[leptbreton]

I can forget how the jocks hate us English with this beautiful track. Superb!

[MatteJz]

this takes me back in time.......close your eyes.....memories.....

[AirTails]

2:25 = impulsive air guitar, whilst imagining standing on a cliff face in the rain

[sxcsKiTzYkitty]

My co worker was singing this at work as a joke. Got me obsessed.  The dilly dilly part is my favorite part though.

[blacksteen]

[cfwbdude]

This Is a pure classic, bring back the 80s

[ProgasaurusRex]

@cfwbdude Check out Steve Rothery playing Comfortably Numb with The Granmarstonberries (with original Marillion bass player Diz Minnitt). Excellent

[JimJohnRayRobby]

[therealficolley]

Reminds me of being in love. We planned to dance to this at our wedding. Then I met someone else. Never found such love again. Happy days

[FrauFleidermaus]

My only question is...what's underneath that quilt?

[ralliahlen]

[rollendestenen63]

romantic and well build up

[tossedpenny]

My ex-girlfriends's dog at my Marillion album that I had kept in mint condition for over two decades. Three days later the little shit got run over by a Chevy. Karma is a bitch. I don't miss either of them.

[MAGNUM2F]

not a bad song....

[XV24]

i came here by mistake, what a horrendous crock of shit this is. you should be all be thoroughly ashamed of yourselves...

[tossedpenny]

@XV24 I do believe you did land here by mistake mate, The TURBO GAY (c) "Lavender" flavored Butt Lube is several clicks away. Nothing going on but good music here. No worries mate, folks make the same mistake all the time. Best wishes to you and your slippery partner. Hey hey!! Go gay!!! I support you guys and all your equal rights and all that other stuff.

[XV24]

@tossedpenny hey hey, go gay? How erudite. I would rather be rogered 1000 times up my bum till it hurts by a group of randy men, with or without your recommended lavender lube, than listen to Marillion again, and therefore have anything in common with a bigot such as you.

[MrAndypearcy]

87 DISLIKES????????????

FUKIN NUTS!

[Kohntarkosz]

Has this version of the song ever been issued on CD?

Der BESTE von Marillion. Kein Lautsprecher geht laut genug !

[maciejka2011]

[DuckyDooDoo122]

Kayleighs wayy better no offence cos its my name <3

[windsorbays]

Nighty Night!

[Ironcabbit]

Why do these guys remind me of the direction Genesis should have taken?

[danasteve524]

 I had gotten into Marillion in 1984 when I was 15 - A junior from my HS had "Script for a Jester's Tear" and "Fugazi"...Misplaced Childhood is still one of my top 10 all-time favorite albums. Thank you, Marillion, for being part of my youth.

[MrBennydoc123]

i went to see marrilion and i love them :).....im 13 :)

[ZiggyStardust49]

@MrBennydoc123 no1 cares

[ca95f]

There was a time when it was common to have a song like this being released every week or ever more often.

God, how lucky I was growing up in the 80s...
