Enya is an artist whose music is a genre of its own. What a genius musician and vocalist. When she dropped this, we were just mesmerised. We still are..
-
When this song was released, it was nothing like it before 🎵
-
“How can anyone hate Enya? It’s just silence, coloured in” Steve Hughes
-
I don't know if anyone has mentioned that the reason she hardly ever toured is that SHE PLAYED ALL THE INSTRUMENTS AND SANG ALL THE VOCAL PARTS! She would spend weeks working with her producers.
-
Enya is so talented and so beautiful. Her "Caribbean Blue" is another favorite of mine. Aw, hell, all of her music is my favorite.
-
Loreena McKennit has a similar style. Mummers Dance is her big hit, but she has several flowing, emotional songs.
-
I was also happy that Enya was the singer for the love song for Aragorn and the Elf Arwen in The Lord of the Rings where she sang in Elvish which I am sure agrees with her Irish Gaelic Language background.
-
Us wee Celts love this stuff ,it's ancient and within us , and a beautiful Celt lass talking about it only helps
-
I was born on the shores of the Orinoco River in Venezuela. So this song has special meaning for me. Always has . . .
-
Enya is one of the very rare artists to whom I react purely emotionally. It's an ethereal, nostalgic relationship that brings back my sweetest and purest memories of my childhood and my late mother. I have true love for this artist.
-
I'm glad her music made it into the LOTR trilogy.
-
Clannad is a fantastic band. I have been a fan for 40 years...i saw them on their final tour last year. Very special.
-
Pure artistic genius: Enya sings all the vocal parts, plays all the instrumental parts layering them over each other...... Music you can surrender your emotions to... Their lyrics launched me into a deep, deep dive into the Iron Age Celts who were every bit as enigmatic as Enya...
-
My son was 6 years old when this song came out. We first heard it on a Canadian music channel (I think called MorTV or something like that.. we had an old school satellite dish)... he stood in front of the TV absolutely transfixed. It's a nice memory for me.
-
If I'm correct on this, James Cameron wanted Enya to compose the musical score for "Titanic". Being an independent singer/songwriter, she didn't want to be tied to a schedule she felt she couldn't meet, and turned it down. Who can imagine how beautiful the score would have been had she'd agreed!
-
"Lots of Enyas going on". I remember from the publicity when this album (vinyl) was released, Enya said there were about 50 versions, not copies, she sang it multiple times for the mix so that subtle variations between versions added to the depth. I saw/heard this for the first time on Rage, a music video show on our national television broadcaster very late one night. It blew me away, and I ordered the 12" Vinyl the next day. I've been a fan ever since.
-
The first time I heard this song, my wife and I had just walked into Barnes and Noble, and it was playing overhead. I headed straight to the music department and bought the CD. Since then I have bought every one of her CD's. While I like the Celtic Women version, this is the top.
-
That entire album is like having champagne with a really smooth Camembert: Sparkling, and then just smoooth and always wanting you to have more. I recommend having a listen with solidly good headphones or through some high-end speakers.
-
One of the most unmistakable voices ever.
