[marilliononline]

@ljforeverj99 - thank you! That's nice to hear!

[TheRealDrumm]

[joemuscat1]

Beautiful!!! Nice and true...Better than the Brave's version indeed. Thank you Marillion! Well done!

[MrCooltiiikkkk]

Big Thanks to GOD ! cuz he made( Or call it how u want) But anyway, cuz he made some awesome peoples like ppls playing in Marillion ! Thanks u so much ! U gave me reason to life ! Marillion for ever ! thanks :)

[ericvanginkel]

think this number hits everything

[barcigian]

This acoustic version IS better than the Brave one in my honest opinion. It's hard not to listen to that a million of times... I just missed one acoustic of Angelina on this album.... It would have been perfect... anyway

[mrvictoria554]

I feel that my life reads just like this song.

[TarantulaTown]

Q: why did Marillion cross the road?

A: they wanted to see if Radiohead would cross the same road three years later...

[GrendelPL]

@TarantulaTown did they? :D i'm not a fan of radiohead, so i don't trace their publications...

[dracknoise85]

[thecitizens]

[wilstim]

Amazing version.  Went to see them In Leamington Spa in November...best gig for ages.

[theSugarmonk]

[vaidushka123]

unbelievable concert... i saw also in Vilnius.. I worked there.. amazing everytihng, heavenly and artists were the best.. :) it gave me the shudders... :)))

[kriss27031974]

Now I write this 1 hour after show in Vilnius-Lithuania.Fantastic gig,great performance.Old song is now new ! So fresh.Guys are still young I will never forget this concert in this beauty place.I love Marillion :)

[JRazquin]

Unlike what other artists do, releasing acoustic albums of their own, this effort on their part is not one intended to profit from the past. This is the work of creative hearts and minds exploring their own pasts, bringing the best of that into the present, but with a sense of "now". As a music fan, I can only marvel at this wonderful endeavour on their part. As a Marillion fan, I feel proud to belong to such a comercially unviable small percentage of the world.

[webster603]

sorry meant to hit the thumb's up - i agree totally!

[JRazquin]

The bravery (no pun intended) it takes for a group of musicians who have for years relied on technology to support their outstanding collective talents is the first thing worth noting. But it did not come as a surprise, given their history of honest sonwriting, their commitment to their fans, and their unwillingless to conform to the rules that govern today's music biz.

Long live Marillion!

[adfshrekrocks]

fantastic version!marillion love u guys!

[royrashbrook]

Less studio production and technical geekery, more musical talent and sheer bloody hard work. No one loves their band like a Marillion fan. Looking forward to hearing this live without the awful studio edit just before the final chorus.

[novembre69]

I love this song, but that's all what I like in the album "less is more" rly..

Certainly because I prefere Marillion when they started with Marbles and co. :)

[rainking883]

Wat waren ze live geweldig!! I never enjoyed a gig as much as last night's!!

[co0tjj]

Been there on the 7th of october in Eindhoven and i loved them! This song was amazing ^_^

[rzatermanis]

if they play the same part in their upcoming tour i will even rock myself into the chairs with satisfaction. from the first note when i was pleased to meet their tunes until today - they are still my #1 band of progrock.

[chefstucreed]

Quiet Simply The best ever.

It takes you back to the heady days of prog yet also keeps your feet in todays world. The only other album in the past 18 months that equally matches the highest quality of musicianship is Elbow Seldom Seen Kid. Less Is More merits aMercury plus all the other trapping enjoyed by Elbow. Special with the BBC etc etc etc.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You

[77zionpower77]
