Marillion - Afraid of Sunlight

Majestic sounds too formulaic to my ears. But the star is Marillion here, not? Hogarth is sublime on this track and the band as solid and melodic as they can be - and I very much like the whole album (one of their better H-era stuff, imo).

Collage - Moonshine is a neo-prog masterpiece IMO. Some Pink Floyd and Marillion influences are obvious in that... but... is Marillion too original?

I'm gonna vote either for Collage or Marillion. I'll decide on this later.

^ You might consider one just as a write-in vote then (at least for now since that vote may be be cast in the poll options later). I'm one of those who generally doesn't much care about the poll results and am more interested in the comments and discussion. I'm not one of those who would rather have remained in the dark, but I checked out bits and pieces from all of these and none were turning on my light switch. No vote at this time. Maybe I'll come back and give a proper listen later.

^ I'm not too serious much of the time -- often a combination of lightly joking around and serious, or just plain seriously silly. And when I use a crying emoticon, it's often followed with a wink (or at least an implied wink). I do feel bad sometimes when I feel people are called out for this or that (not in this case however), but mostly after I'm the one to have done it.

As long as it's not being questioned with , , , ..., it's good.
