Nel 1999 Hogarth e compagni pubblicano "marillion.com",una sorta di autocelebrazione dei loro fans le cui foto vengono minuziosamente riprodotte all'interno della copertina.Il disco a partire dal titolo e dall'impaginazione grafica non appare particolarmente ispirato.Hogart è convincente,le canzoni risultano energiche e con alcuni passaggi degni di nota ma la sensazione è quella di un album chiuso,ermetico che non si fa amare.Questo non significa che manchi la qualità,i Marillion sono una garanzia in questo,"Go!","Enlightened" e "Interior Lulu" sono a mio avviso i brani migliori anche se quasi mai eseguiti dal vivo.In sostanza un titolo che regala un piacevole ascolto senza nulla togliere alla vena artistica del gruppo che cinque anni dopo pubblicherà quello che considero il loro lavoro migliore

They got money, they got sun
They look like they're havin' fun
Don't it seem it's so unfair
They know something you don't know
They've got a better place to go
They're thin and rich and they don't care
We get the dreams that we deserve
The magazines that we deserve
Page one and three that we deserve
The joy and the pain that we deserve
The sun and the rain that we deserve
The material gain that we deserve
We get what we deserve
They got tension, they got stress
They got their lives in the press
The whole world stares as they undress
Sold their friends to get ahead
They do therapy instead
They've got demons in their bed
We get the toys that we deserve
The quiet and the noise that we deserve
The girls and the boys that we deserve
We get what we want if we really want it
We get what we want if we're really honest
You know what you are
You know what you want
You know what you deserve
We get the seas that we deserve
The flowers and the trees that we deserve
The spores on the breeze that we deserve
We get what we want if we really want it
We get what we want if we're really honest
You know what you are
You know what you want
You know what you deserve
You deserve
We get what we deserve
We deserve

Reality is something that you rise above
We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run
The fearful fall foul of fate as often as the reckless
You don't need money to be rich anyhow
Spending yourself is what it's all about
No tears
No lies
No pain
No doubt
No darkness
No confusion
No loneliness, despair
No more, no more
It's all illusion
If you have made mistakes
There's always another chance for you
You can start over again at any moment
Any little time you choose
Talk about failure
To fall is not to fail
Failure isn't about falling down
Failure is staying down
Energy makes energy anyhow
Spend yourself and get rich right now
No tears
No lies
No pain
No doubt
No darkness
No confusion
No loneliness, despair
No way, no how
It's all illusion
Reality is something that you rise above
We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are
There's always another chance for you
You can start over again
Start over again
Over again
Any little time you choose
Get rich right now
