Stand And Fight
Music: N. Da Silva
Lyrics: N. Da Silva/S. Westbrook

For you and I will see
The world can often be the
Hand of greed that takes our right to breathe
In silent misery
Slander bends our dreams
Telling us to feed on the machine

No science can silence
The blind sickness of mankind – will never see
No violence can silence
The right to express our mind – we will stand and fight

Green covers blacket me
And soon it becomes me
It’s a curse that no one sees
It’s hard to take the lead
It sees our every deed
Telling us to feed on the machine

No science can silence
The blind sickness of mankind – will never see
No violence can silence
The cries of our conscious minds – when we have to decide

No science can silence
The blind sickness of mankind – will never see
No violence can silence
The cries of our conscious minds
No violence can silence
The right to express our mind – we will stand and fight

Steve Rothery band Live in Plovdiv
by Steve Rothery

supported by 4 fans who also own “Stand And Fight”

The first official outing of the "what would be" Steve Rothery Band. Riccardo Romano was missing with his keyboard wizardry and no singer at all (later Martin Jakubsky of Stillmarillion). Marillion's catalogue was represented by excerpts of instrumental sections where Steve had his solo spot. This is a milestone in the forming of a great band that later became the spokesman of early Marillion era and of course of Steve's solo material. If you want to hear how it all started you have to get this Alessandro Carmassi

I don't know why, but this album sounds like the System Of A Down of Progressive Metal to me (in a good way). Something different, diverse, with highly melodic parts and awesome vocals. Love this. UbuntuStudioUser
