And no bad thing, either. Most of the album appealed to me, with a special fondness for "Cursum Perficio" - because I'm fond of any form of singing in Latin, even if Enya's dense tracks and vocals are a far cry from Gregorian chant.
There are those who've said that one of Enya's albums sounds like any other. I don't agree. But music is a subjective business.
Enya is, of course, sister to another well-know Irish chanteuse, Máire Brennan of Clannad. Máire is also known as Moya - and now you see where "Enya" may have come from.Clannad wrote theme music for a number of TV series. The theme for one of them, Harry's Game, reached the Top 5 in the British charts. For a song in Irish (Gaelic), that was quite an achievement. The series itself was highly-regarded, which helped, but the haunting music was what captured the listeners.
And still does.
I've gone so far as to have it as a ringtone on my phone. But, that's just me.
