When dramas rocked my home life or high school walls, Enya soothed my turbulent teenage heart. In 1991, Enya’s single (Caribbean Blue) charts globally with the exception of Austria and France. Still, with my CD/tape player tucked arms-distance from my pillow, Enya lulled me to sleep many nights.Īs Roma Ryan wrote in the “Caribbean Blue” liner notes, “It is a simple fact, often forgotten, that people may create something good merely by thinking it so.” The tracks were poignant and comforting, like a prayer or meditation. Accompanied by beds of JUNO sounds, Ryan’s words in Enya’s voice conjure these wind gods.Īs a teen with dyed hair and ripped stockings, I wouldn’t have described myself as a new age fan. Greek and Latin deities Eurus, Boreas, Afer Ventus, Zephyrus, and Africus represent seasonal change. The poet gave “Caribbean Blue” its name, penning lyrics to capture the tune’s cresting sonic waves.

Northern Irish poet, Roma Ryan and producer Nicky Ryan are the other contributors. Eithne Pdraign N Bhraonin, known professionally as Enya, is an Irish singer, songwriter, producer and irish musician. Particularly if you perceive her as little more than a Botticelli-like beauty so fragile that you fear she will break if you breathe too harshly in her presence. It is somewhat of an insult to confuse the woman Eithne N Bhraonin with Enya, her public persona. Though Enya’s face and name are well known, the entity is actually a collaboration. Joe Jackson talks to the singer/composer Enya about her latest album Shepherd Moons.
