Enya - Caribbean Blue (Official 4k Music Video) REACTION

[@odettesummers8229]

She’s got an ageless sound of beauty and tranquility that will never go out of fashion. Just beautiful ❤️

[@goyhoipolloi]

Not only is that descriptive of her music, it's descriptive of her.

[@Soranjaboom]

💯

[@thelonelyghosts9004]

Her music is more of an experience than anyone else I can think of. She has a way of transporting you to a different time and place where everything will be alright.

[@marekzee]

The amazing thing about Enya is that writes, performs and produces most of her music. All of the background vocals you hear are her layered dozens of times. There are only three people involved in making her music: Enya, Nicky Ryan (producer) and his wife Roma Ryan (lyricist). Enya never tours, but once a year she performs live in her church on Christmas Eve.

[@visa9313]

What a woman! Very impressive

[@r.mcbride2837]

Lovely. Truth be told, however, I don't believe I've ever heard a piece of music by Enya that I didn't just love. Her music just transports you to celestial realms.

[@Lindasims733]

She’s amazing

[@hahatoldyouso]

Celestial realms is a good way to put it

[@maylapaty]

ikr I was looking for Enya in sportfy and started to listen the very best, at some point I was like "fuck this, I want the discography" lol

[@michaelconnolly7681]

I'm from Ireland 🇮🇪 and from the same county she is from -Donegal and I love Enya so much. I love the beautiful and ethereal quality of her music. It's special and unique. A lot of work does go into the production of her songs and videos. Excellent reaction video.

[@BRIDINC1972]

You also need to check out her sister Moya Brennan and the family band with their brothers Clannad. Very talented family. But couldn't expect anything else from Donegal

[@gretchenvanschnozbaeg4040]

[@MaxLeGrand33]

One of the most beautiful songs ever written.

[@DwayndibbVids]

Yes this is my favorite Enya song 👌

[@rebeccalucas6063]

Enya is what you listen to when are needing something soothing. It's also good for when you opening your windows in the early spring to let the fresh air in. It's just refreshing.

[@TheIgisas]

Truth.

[@cagnazzo82]

This is a perfect way to describe her music. Although, it'd be nice on a warm summer morning as well :)

[@TheIgisas]

@@cagnazzo82 TRUTH🙏

[@sargepent9815]

Enya has a once in a lifetime voice amd even if it's not your type of music, it makes you shut your eyes and it takes your mind away from your body. Almost beyond words

[@opalviking]

Enya is wonderful for meditation and when you need calm in your spirit. She’s amazingly melodic and will help center you.

[@emilybakker3742]

I use it for sleeping works so good

[@chadwellington2524]

Enya IS Like stepping into a Masterpiece Painting. - Believe it or Not - Music like THIS used to get Radio Air Play

[@kittylove208]

Watermark album by Enya is a masterpiece👍 If you only listen to one album by her this is the one!😉

[@nickavenoso7851]

Watermark, Shepherd Moons and The Memory Of Trees are three masterpieces!

[@sherylAA]

agree

[@notrelevant9836]

I agree, but exploring all of her music, they all are masterpieces. She is beyond our world ❤

[@brunogiovannini2180]

Magical, ethereal, it transports me to another world. It's fantastic, sublime. Rich... She's an amazing and complete musician. And this masterpiece is one of my favorite songs ever, since I was a kid. Great reaction!

[@rogerreygadas-fabela9312]

I first listened to her in kindergarten during nap time (yes we had that) lol and I will never forget her or my teacher till date,gracias Ms.Martinez

[@shanehebert396]

I still remember when/where I heard "Orinoco Flow", the first song I ever heard by her. Pretty much everything she sings/plays (there are some instrumentals) is very soothing and really good. She's one of the few artists who I would buy her albums without having heard anything on it. And yeah, I agree with you about her songs and visualization. "Storms in Africa" is a *great* song to sit back with your eyes closed and listen. I have a whole music video in my mind for that song.

[@soupdragonuk]

Same here Shane. I remember hearing Orinocco Flow and was floored by its beauty. Since then I've bought every album without hearing anything from them. Her music is so calming and beautiful. It's something to play after a stressful day. It's just a shame she takes so long between albums. I suspect Dark Island Sky may be the last.

[@jasonkraley]

@@soupdragonuk on November 4, 2021, during an uploaded youtube "watch party" video on Enya's official channel commemorating "Shepard's Moon"'s 30th anniversary, Nicky Ryan stated that Roma (his wife), Enya & he "used the downtime from the CoVid19 pandemic to renovate Aigle Studio & install new recording equipment & instruments. When this is complete, Enya will begin working on new music." i'm looking forward to it!

[@soupdragonuk]

Yet another Irish Angel. They do have a way of melting your very being with their voices.

[@judydonaghue-staubs6890]

Those voices are all hers. Love it. 💙

[@carltonbakerii8274]

This is a beautiful song by a beautiful woman who has an amazing voice. The fact that it's a waltz is a bonus in my opinion. She creates such lush, sumptuous soundscapes in all her music.

[@elizabethteska6174]

Enya’s music is gorgeous. I get lost in it unlike any other music I hear. Fun fact: on road trips when my young children could just not settle down and go to sleep, I’d pop in an Enya CD and that would do the trick!

[@janemarks3002]

This song was our first dance as husband and wife so it is very special to me. Great song to waltz to!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@kachdragonfly]

This was our wedding song as my beautiful bride walked up the isle to me.

[@manicpanic3544]

Chills go up and down my spine every time I hear her sing.

[@peaceisnature]

Same, just got them!

[@dragontaletarot]

My favorite song of all time - no question. The whole album it's from 'Shepherd Moons' is in my top 5 that I never get tired of. This song and the music of her family band (Clannad - listen to their song 'Harry's Game'!) changed my life! I got into music and became a Celtic musician myself because of them :)

[@sofiahelene.o]

It’s my favorite too! Such a wonderful song.

[@Julie12122]

Oh wow i didnt know enya's family was clannad, i love a soundtrack they made for a movie

[@TropicalMatt]

I freaking love this music Bro.. salve do Brasil 🇧🇷 now under new management, thank god

[@SpiralMoss]

Its a real Irish sound, the sound of bird's ,water, wind, wave's all translated by musical instruments and the voice of someone from tir na nÓg

[@ToneeRhianRose]

Her music is always enchanting! She did the song May It Be from The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.

[@TheIgisas]

My childhood...

[@mamasinger49]

One of our amazing Irish artists, I grew up with Enya as one of my faves. I would listen to her with my cassette player and headphones and play this over and over before falling asleep in my bedsit in Dublin, this song brings back so many memories. Her songs are magical and hypnotic. She was huge here in Ireland in the 90s. Thank you for listening and understanding her music.

[@clairemendoza8082]

Glad you enjoyed this song! Another great song by Enya is “May It Be.” Thats the theme song she wrote for the first Lord Of The Rings Movie and she also wrote Arwen and Aragorn’s theme Also from Lord Of The Rings called Aniron. She got to see the first stages of the Lord Of The Rings being filmed having read the book herself at 16. Her oldest sister Moya sang the theme song for The Last Of The Mohicans “I Will Find You,” and was offered to write a song for Lord Of The Rings But she turned it down. Enya was born and raised in Donegal, Ireland. She lives there still in a castle. How cool is that? Love your music reactions Jay!

[@ibrahimcastrodelangel4940]

I would say this is arguably one of her greatest songs out there, for me personally it is my favorite. I use it to help me relax

Yes Jay, it was a beautiful song and also a beautiful reaction, her songs makes you feel warm and fuzzy and the artistic video is a feast for ones eyes, thank you again Jay, love from Ireland, where Enya is from! xx

You would love her sister Moya’s work ‘ No matter where you go, I will find you’. It’s part of the soundtrack of ‘Last of the Mohicans’

[@r.mcbride2837]

I agree. That is a beautiful piece of music.

[@mezellenjohnson2753]

The family group is Clannad and I love their music as well as Enya's. I listen to their music to relax and it works every time.

[@iainweller452]

My father liked Enya we played “Orinoco Flow” at his funeral so it’s always an emotional listen for me

[@jeannieschmidt2217]

Wow Javon - I haven't heard this in AGES - but it used to be a favourite of mine. The flow is just incredible. Thanks for reminding me :) Lots of love from Canada

[@marksaunderson3042]

I had forgotten how peaceful and enchanting Enya is, and how she fills her work with multiple layers of sound. It is indeed pleasing to the ear.

[@ychaps]

Rich,full,beautiful sounds...lovely music...

[@n0sr369]

I remember being a child and listening to my first Enya album, The Celts. It opened the door to a new dimension of serenity. A world away from the hell I was in. ❤️

[@mmattson8947]

Definitely interesting listening. Still has some of the Clannad / folk elements, but well on the way to the layered vocals and synth instruments of Watermark. ("Aldebaran" definitely transports me when I hear it. Reminds me of the "Cosmos" show, even though the music is distinct.)

[@franceshaas8255]

Liked your comment. "Super well layered." She's a wizard. Love her sound.

[@jlilley73]

Nice, Javon! I didn't expect you to revisit Enya, but I'm happy you did! She's one of my favorite artists. Your instincts are correct: The best way to enjoy her is to just close your eyes, relax, and let it wash over you (I've seen almost none of her videos). She is who I listen to when I'm in an airplane and need to lower my anxiety. Since you've already listened to "Orinoco Flow (Sail Away)", the next one I'd listen to is probably "Book of Days" (i.e. "Far And Away"), or perhaps "Storms in Africa", which I also really love. Both are a lot more dramatic than this one (which is great in its own soothing way).

[@thejonathandoan]

She is amazing. Love the layers! This track is one of my favorites from her. Immensely beautiful!

[@Maizy1985]

I played this album while pregnant with my daughter, wow 30 years ago this year! When she was born this music would calm her when she was upset it was also the first music she danced and sang to at 9 months old. Orinoco Flow is gorgeous too and was my daughter's favourite as well as Wild Child which she was! Enya has such a uniquely ethereal sound that's timeless.

[@suzanne1430]

How sweet...my daughter loved dancing queen...ABBA..🎀

[@susanashcroft2674]

Let the music wash over you, it is pure gold.

[@tamashii6670]

Oh, such amazing song by Enya. This was my first Enya's song I've ever heard, in radio, it was in 1998 or 1999, I was 4 or 5 years old, when I heard this song, I immediately fell in love with her music and I love it to this day, amazing, just amazing. :)

[@roger1296]

I ABSOLUTELY 100% ADORE ENYA! I own every album she has made including the Christmas albums. She is the last voice I hear every night before I fall asleep, and as a matter of fact, it this song in particular that I play on repeat while I’m sleeping. She has been right by my side when I’ve been depressed, or feeling down over the years. I have struggled with depression for over 30 years, and listening to Enya has been one of the only ways I can get through difficult days.

[@debbieelholm7921]

I love Enya! I first discovered Enya when I heard Orinoco Flow. Since then, I’ve become a huge fan. Her music allows you to drift away in your mind. To go outside the box.

[@perigrinen]

Welcome back to Enya. Not only is her music peaceful but I find it Inspiring/Uplifting. Two of my favs are: Hope Has a Place and On My Way Home. For another modern take on Celtic music you could check out Loreena McKennit. All Souls Night and The Mystics Dream are great tracks.

[@fionapomme]

And Sally Oldfield, Water bearer.

I love watching how he was enjoying this song play music is phenomenal it's like another dimension beating another planet being in another world bringing you the best feelings that you're having when you're playing the worst

[@lisasofthemoon]

My all time favourite song & singer. I cannot explain how much i love her

[@zoolook3264]

Enya's music is beautiful, inspiring for my own music (Though I write instrumental). She layers some of her vocals on 80-100 tracks in a single song for JUST for the vocals and she records each of them separately.

[@mezellenjohnson2753]

This is brilliant as is Enya and her family group Clannad with her elder sister Moya whose voice is just as wonderful to listen to. You have such diverse music you listen to and I love that, so many stick to one genre and dont open their minds to the wealth and variety that is there for everyone to enjoy. Take care and stay safe please my friends God bless you all love hugs and peace to everyone Mary-Ellen UK

[@MrCdnBeef]

The beauty of her work is truly ethereal. Intensely peaceful, if such a thing could exist. While it was never released as a single, "cursum perficio" from the Watermark album is another not-of-this-world work of brilliance

Dia dhuit as Éireann ☘️ Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪 Enya her real name Eithne ( Eth-na ) is an amazing Irish artist . Closer to Christmas check out her album And Winter Came , it’s beautiful and she sings silent night in the Irish language , so beautiful ( go hálainn) 😊

[@Rich-wi7dn]

A beautiful song. It brings tears to my eyes every time. Thanks for the reaction. Be well!

[@thefullnomad6543]

Enya is in a class of female vocalists that are just different -- they bring something else to the game. You already appreciate Kate Bush. I'd say Enya is similarly unique as Kate. Kate's not really my cup of tea, but I appreciate her talent. (I have a hearing loss and her vocal range is the frequency range that sounds the least natural/pleasant to me. Que sera, sera.) But here are a couple you should try out that have the same femine mystique and compelling and charistmatic production and composition, but not quite as ethereal or magical, but I think you'll enjoy them a lot. Sarah McLachlan is kind of amazing because she created this travelling musical festival (like Lollapalooza) of just female artists called Lilith Fair and she really created this renaissance of women in rock and gave a lot of exposure to women like PJ Harvey, Indigo Girls, Susanna Hoffs (lead from Bangles), Erykah Badu, Neneh Cherry, Tegan & Sarah, Lisa Loeb, Suzanne Vega, Tracey Chapman, and DOZENS AND DOZENS of women, and a HUGE part of why rock had such STUNNING female artists in the '90s is because Sarah McLachlan empowered them through her Lilith Fair tour that ran to dozens of cities over three years with over 150 female performers. The rock music and alt music you hear from women today is 100% influenced by what Sarah McLachlan gave the world from 1997-1999 on that tour. Loreena McKennit -- The Mummer's Dance - kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6m3oal3YtWIfZI Sarah McLachlan -- I Will Remember You - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pITdYmmknMmmfZI

[@Cyssane]

This needs to be upvoted about 1000 times. Sarah did so much for the music industry through Lilith Fair, and she's a wonderful artist herself. I was lucky enough to see both her and Loreena McKennitt live in concert (different shows).

[@joseteixeira5900]

Some person stories here and other Enya music channels are told that some of her songs marked theirs childhood for life. Mine as well, heard Enya for the 1st time in 1991, this song actually, I was 8 years old. How can a child be shocked by hearing this? It was true. So marvelous. Well I think a genuine child can really perceive things better than adults, the simplest, purest and natural message, only by melodic nuances and to be honest, understanding through the years what really is music or what and how should be understood is beyound the conservatoire repertoire. Enya and Vangelis understood that, specially Vangelis who had not formal training at all.

[@res9249]

This music embraces you and take you to the sky full of stars!Unbelievable❤

[@jasonkraley]

when this video premiered, it looked/felt like "a sequel" to her breakout introduction on MTV (when it was an actual music video channel) "Orinoco Flow": the frame-by-frame "moving painting" effect helped that segue into her follow-up album's single debut.. the lush brilliance in her vocal layers is one of the hallmark talents of her permanent co-songwriting/producing husband/wife team: Roma & Nicky Ryan (who live w/her at her vast estate).. their professional technique of music layering, mixing & production have been a trademark asset to Enya's singular vocally recognizable style throughout the decades.. thank you for your reaction!

[@Cbricklyne]

It takes her 5-7 years on average to make an album - and sometimes even longer. With some breaks for concert tours typically after the release of a previous album. She does all the vocals herself and layers the different pitches (used to be analog, but nowadays they do it all digitally). She cuts no corners and takes no shortcuts No backup singers. No Autotuning crap. Just pure Enya and all her voice. (she also plays a fair few of the instruments too)
