Buckle yourselves in and make sure your hands and feet are inside the ride at all time, Kiddies. I plan to cover 'em all as we countdown the release of Somewhere Else.

The Web, Forgotten Son, Garden Party and Script for a Jester's Tear are all tied with the others not far behind. Voted for the Web since its behind my other favorites

Script is good, but sounds a little too commercial; the Web is my favorite.

I just love that beginning. Probably one of the most memorable intros to a song in progressive music.

I went with Script, too. Rothery just cooks on it. Probably "Chelsea Monday" or "He Knows You Know" would be next.

Except for The Web (which is slightly weaker), this album is extremely strong and I love all tracks the same, but I went for Chelsea Monday.

Well, I'm the first to choose Garden Party. Now that's what I call an original track. Some of Fish' best lyrics as well.
 
I never understood why people loved the title track. I like all of the album except that one. Too much cutting and pasting, too fragmentary, and the parts don't fit. To my taste, anyway.

I remember every note of it.Actually, this is my favouritest album ever.Also I remember the exactly same thread on August,2006.Nevermind

Script
Sons
Monday
Web
Party
He knows

But every song is a masterpiece itself and could made every album of every band almost a masterpiece...just imagine ARAGON or DEYSS album with a soung like Garden Party or Chelsea Monday...

Note: unreleased tracks, especially 19-minutes long version of Grendel and 3 boats down from the Candy, are the same way genius. Charting the Single is my favourite MARILLION song which I dance to

After a quick listen, I can't decide between Garden Party or Forgotten Sons. I don't really like the rest a great deal.

Chelsea Monday, as it is the most interesting instrumentals against the lyrics, and the drums don't disappoint as they do even on the title cut...

"Forgotten Sons" wins hands down for me. I also like "He Knows You Know" and "Chelsea Monday". Overall, a much better album than the celebrated "Misplaced Childhood".
