There are about six of her albums over on:

alt.binaries.sounds.mp3.celtic

I know all y'all are way too manly to like Enya, but your wives might.

And man enough to admit it!

I just happened to look over there, and it seems like every one of her
CDs have been put up.

Seems that way, though I don't download stuff that is likely copyrighted.
Just goes against my ethics. I'm one of those rare breeds - a retired cop
who never accepted gratuities, even free coffee. I've seen far too many
cases where a little graft like free meals, etc. led to big time corruption,
or compromise in the performance of duty.

Eh - some of it is good in particular her early material is excellant
in that breathy ethereal kind of New Wave "World Music" sound.

Her first two "Enya" and "Watermark" were very good - unique and a
very different kind of sound. "Shepard Moon" - well, some of it was
good, but repetitive on "Watermark".

Everything since, with the exception of some of her Celtic
compositions, sounds pretty much the same. If you like background
music, yeah - I guess.

Oh no, I wasn't suggesting anyone download it. I was suggesting it as
a 'reference' in case one needed to know what songs she sang. :)

Sounds like someone's twisting her nipple with a pair of pliers. Just like
those black singers who sing the National Anthem and roam all over, never
reaching the right note.

MHO, YMMV, BIDGAS

Lessee, listen to an Enya album...get a root canal. Enya....root canal.
Let's analyze...

Both will take about the same amount of time out of my life that will never
be recovered.

I get a shot to reduce the misery that will ensue over the next 50 minutes
for the root canal. No such courtesy is extended for the Enya listen.

I get an Rx for a narcotic pain reliever to address the lingering effect of
the root canal. Once again, no such consideration offered for the Enya
"music" still rattling around in my head. In fact, I'll probably have to
listen to some really obnoxious heavy metal just to purge her.

The root canal actually fixes a problem that needed to be addressed. Enya
didn't address anything. I could have put in a Steely Dan or Mark Knopfler
CD to properly address a music jones.

I can tell my buddies over beers about the root canal. It's a common
experience we've all shared. Probably best not to mention the Enya thing.

Insurance will reimburse me for the root canal. I'm out twelve bucks for
the Enya CD.
