JohnH,
I think the word you are looking for is "haunting".


Check out Evanescence (Amy Lee). Same quality, but not quiet as high
pitched.

I get chills listening to her sing.


There's always the Joni Mitchell "Clouds" album.

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's like listening to Joan Baez sing "for Tookie's life!!"


You've gotta be kidding! Joan Baez is 98% fake vibrato, and her range of
tone is roughly the same as my table saw. :-) Joni, on the other
hand.....holy smokes.

JohnH,
Where the hell do you guys find this music. I had to download Enya to
see
what or who he/she was. I found he was playing a number of songs I
liked,
but he screwed them up big time.

Can you imagine if you were anchored in a quiet cove, and a boat pulled
in
playing Enya? I think the police would let you off with a warning if you
sank his boat. All you would have to say is "... but Officer, he was
playing Enya". ; )



I don't know who you downloaded, but Enya is female.

My friends from Holland got me listening to her. Beautiful stuff.


She's horrible. Every single album she's done since Orinoco Flow
sounds exactly the same.

Elevator music.

Bad elevator music.

Hang on.....did Baez actually emerge from her crypt to write a song for the
gangsta?

You're supposed to preface comments like that with, "IMHO"!

Now you're making me feel bad. I guess *you* could say, "IMEO".

Yep...

I still say the best line I ever heard about Joan Baez was from Bob
Dylan. He was asked about singing with her and he said "She's a
pretty good lay".

Doug,
Totally different. Go stand in the corner for even suggesting she is
similar to Amy Lee.

OH my god, you have to be kidding me.

Enya light.

And we all know what I think about Enya.

P and U.

I like Joni, dn't misunderstand me. But life and use has passed her
by - give it up.


Interesting, though: The R.I.T. college station played a few songs from her
first 3 albums one night, a few months back. The DJ said he was getting
calls from people on campus, asking who the new artist was. He let them
dangle for an hour or so, and then explained it. If you didn't know her
first stuff was released in the late 60s, it might actually sound fresh.
It's all a matter of expectations, I guess.
