How We Live was a project between Steve Hogarth and Colin Woore, respectively the keyboard player and guitarist previously of the New Wave band The Europeans. They released one album, Dry Land, in 1987 with Hogarth on vocals, before Hogarth replaced Fish as Marillion's vocalist in 1989. The title track of the Dry Land album also appeared on Marillion's 1991 album Holidays In Eden, and "Simon's Car" (which was released on the B-side of the How We Live single) evolved into the Marillion hit single "Cover My Eyes".
