Free Music Review: Why I really love this CD....
Hit: 5 Stars

For many years, I had no intersest in music. I am a teenager, but I was not satisfied or interested in the pop/rock music my friends and classmates listened to. Then, on the television I saw two commercials, both of which had the most wonderful music. One night, I was about to go to sleep, until I heard the beautiful music I had heard on television. I walked downstairs and saw my father listening to the music. "What music is this?" I asked. "It is by Enya," he said, "a singer from Ireland". One day, I was lieing down and sick, but I asked my father if I could listen to Enya. This is what I heard:

Orinoco Flow- "Sail away, sail away, sail away", oh, how she enchanted the phrase! Her voice powerfully said, "We can sail, we can sail." The rythm flies up and up, floats in the heavens as she says, "Turn it up, turn it up, up adieu." Then it swoops down as she declares, "Sail away, sail away, sail away"!

Caribbean Blue- Oh, how I loved her accent! The divine intonation of Latin words and the enchanting beat easilly makes it one of the most beautiful songs in the world. When I first heard this song, I wondered for weeks, "Who is the singer that sings so gracefully and creates such exquisite sounds?" How excited I was to find her! I am still enchanted.

Book of Days- One of my all time favorites of Enya, the song makes you picture oceans far away and dreams coming true. You fly far away on a long journey, across the magic sea, until you find your dream, your day. Like all of her songs, it was perfectly arranged with sounds of strings, piano, and clapping percussion.

Anywhere is- This song easily brought smiles to my face. You picture yourself wandering around the maze of time, from one direction to the other, you think you've found your way and the music stops, but then the music begins and you must continue on your way.

Only if....- Another delight that brings hopes and smiles. Enya's lovely voice tells you that if you really want to, you can fly and find your dreams, and find the way. When trouble comes, don't feel lost and failed. Have hope and dream, and you will fly away.

The Celts- I could tell that this song was song in Irish Gaelic. I was amazed by the way she expressed the strength and greatness of her Celtic ancestors with a powerful beat and brave Irish voce.

China Roses- Roma Ryan knows Enya's music and Enya knows Roma's words. Together the music and words express the wonders of life and paradise, along with questions. Her voice is usually layered, but her solo voice is breathtaking. The poetic lyrics and ethereal music remind us that in heaven, we do not need desires because we have the greatest paradise.

Shepherd Moons- I was pleased to learn that Enya plays the piano. The chords play at a light and steady rythm, going up and up. You picture water flowing in the night, with reflections of the moon and stars.

Ebudae- Based on waulking songs from the Hebrides, this song has a strong beat and very expresive in words and intonation. You dance as you walk around from island to island. Women work and beat, but the meaningless words express fun with work.

Storms In Africa- Another one of my greatest favorites. The storm rises, the storm comes, but you sing and dance as the rain falls. The animals and people run to shelter and the wind blows agaisnt the grass. Then, the thunder roars! It clashes and clashes, but don't worry. Just walk through the storms.

Watermark- Serious, classical, calm, and enchanting, this song pictures water flowing down streams and paintings with hidden images.

Paint The Sky With Stars- With gorgeous lyrics and charming harmony, Enya depicts a beautiful world full of bright flowers and stars everywhere. You wonder and you dream, and in the end, you watch the giver and dreamaker paint the sky with stars.

Marble Halls- How wonderfully Enya sang the words. I have everything, I've been given everything, but you love me. It does not matter what I have, but all that matters is that you love me, and I love you.

On My Way Home- Oooooooh! You walk around in the beautiful dark night, in silence, tension, and excitement. You are on your way to great paradise and you sing with joy at the wonders around you.

The Memory of Trees- Easily one of her best. You picture nothing, but then the trees start to appear. You gasp. You run throughout the forest as you listen to the trees whispering. "Beo...beo...." the Gaelic word for 'alive'. There is life all around you and after running through the forest, you find the great grand holy tree you desired.

Boadicea- Austere and without words, the music and voice express the feelings. Be bold and be brave. Fate will not end you forever.

Thank you, Enya! for the wonderful ethereal enchanting journey you brought me on. These are only my own interpretations and feelings, but all of you people on amazon, will definately find your own dreams in this quintessential, ethereal, and enchanting journey.
