Customer Reviews
More of the same... I love Enya but this CD is more of the same "Enya sound"... but unfortunately not as good as her previous releases. And the Christmas musical theme is an acquired taste.
WONDERFUL CD: LET ENYA BE ENYA Come on people, get over it! This is Enya, not Madonna, who keeps reinventing herself and experimenting with new sounds. Why look and produce radically different music when you risk losing the very fan base that has made you such a beloved international music artist? The track "AND WINTER CAME" may be a "MIDNIGHT BLUE" rehash, but a nice-sounding one. "WHITE IS IN THE WINTER NIGHT" cannot be a more upbeat tune. The same can be said about "MY! MY! TIME FLIES," with a surprising electric guitar solo uncharacteristic of Enya, still welcome. You see, she appears to be experimenting, but don't expect to throw an entire CD with a totally different feel and appeal to it. Why expect a "Shepherd Moons 2" or "The Memory of Trees 2" off of every album? Chill: pour a cup of tea (I don't drink coffee...hehe!), sit back, relax, and let Enya's beautiful voice take you through yet another journey of enchanting tunes.
