Some Fish favourites, unless for me. Do you think that those tracks are between the best of the great Fish?

I only have Fish's first 2 albums, and 'Vigil' wins over 'Credo' for me. Obviously not worth voting but the album 'Vigil....' is quite good (bar 'Big Wedge' ) and the next one (which I haven't heard for years) didn't move me. I gave up on Fish and pursued H Marillion.

There's a number of songs from Fish that I like more than those five.
Curiosity killed a cat, Schroedinger only half.

Mine also. But from this list I vote for Vigil (my second favourite Fish song) over Credo (somewhere in my top 10 of individual Fish tracks).

Suits get less love than it actually deserves.

Vigil
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

I like all of this five tracks, but Vigil is so perfect that I could say that is unbeatable

My favorite fish is rainbow trout.
One does nothing yet nothing is left undone.

Good one!  Not too familiar with Fish as a solo artist.  But, his vocals and work on Fugazi, Misplaced Childhood, and Clutching at Straws (as front-man for Marillion) make those songs of the best years - and albums - of prog (as it was waning from its 1970s glory-days...)

I do like his vocals with Marillion but never bought any of his solo albums. And I'm not even that familiar with all the Marillion tracks since I don't play them all that often.
