HE KNOWS YOU KNOW

That's how Fish introduced the song before it's played live like the one on La Gazza Ladra 'The Thieving Magpie' - the double disc live album released after his departure from Marillion. But of course the version presented right here is the shorter version as this was going to be broadcasted over the radio for commercial purpose. As I listened to this version from THE SINGLES '82 - 88' so I got it after I knew the album version which is really excellent. Compared to the album version, this He Knows You Know version is not that quite punchy and energetic. If I were listening to this version prior to the album release, I would love to see the song ini the full album version.

Charting The Single - I really like the title even though the song is not quite attractive compared to He Knows You Know. However this song is really good to get audience participation is it's performed live.

Overall, this set is really excellent musically as well as production - especially packaging of the package. Keep on proggin' ...!

Peace on earth and mercy mild - GW
