I think the reason why the songs will remain fascinating through the years is because listeners can uncover different layers and references all the time. Her lyricist Roma Ryan(from Northern Ireland) has a huge background in different languages, mythology and history-Irish or whatever. I think it’s the Latin verses that really define the power of the melody. But when the music is bigger than the artist, fans will stick around. It is true that any artist can build a career out of looks or spectacle. Her fans are always patient and passionate with whatever she puts out. Although, I’ve not been very much active there these days. I keep tabs of anything Enya through the Unity forum. I remember after recording A Day Without Rain, they gutted their Aigle studio and replaced everything with hi-tech recording equipment. She and producer Nicky Ryan always like trying something new in the studio. Yet she can hit very low notes that at times made her sound androgynous. But after later albums that signature voice has evolved and became more expressive.

It is more like, diaphanous and otherworldly kind of softness. Those who listened to her when she was still with Clannad would notice that incredible softness. I sometimes hear a likeness to Karen Carpenter as her voice started to acquire that deeper and warmer shade. Is it about The Order of the White Horse? I suggest you Google that and you might find interesting bits in the internet ? Her voice has evolved. The Celts- black ,Watermark – orange, Shepherd Moons – blue, The Memory of Trees – gold,Paint the Sky with Stars – sepia,A Day Without Rain- emerald, Amarantine – Red and finally, And Winter Came -white. Enya has themes running through all her albums. I think I raved about AWC when it first came out yes, I am writing about it again yay! It is such a joy to talk about music with someone who shares the same interest. Yes I have mentioned that this month is mostly about holiday albums, and I am taking my time to listen to albums I bought through the years. And such is found in the album And Winter Came by Enya. Like books, they let you live life vicariously.

I take comfort in the way music takes us to places we’ve never been. The tropics can be cold but not THAT cold. Sad to say, there’s no such thing where I am. I have been checking out the instagram pics of my online pals.
