Amazon.com essential recording: Enya's 1988 recording Watermark achieved landmark success with her groundbreaking use of multi-tracking technology to fuse new age and Celtic themes and instrumentation. The meticulous production defines her sound and achieves continuity even while weaving together tender ballads, piano pieces, massively layered vocal harmonies, and symphonic synthesizer movements. Although Enya's pristine voice isn't especially strong, her lead vocals possess a vulnerability that reflects the lyrics' sense of personal searching. From the ubiquitous, frothy single "Orinoco Flow" (which was used to hawk Crystal Light on TV) to the hard, bold edge of "Cursum Perficio," Enya's style remains fresh and engaging today. --Richard Price
Enya's albums are fantastic if you want to really test out the power of a sterio. ^ And with that in mind, this is the reason that I purchased this album. For both car audio & home theater, Enya albums will really put your speakers through a vigorous workout. The result of this workout is a chance for you to properly tune your system so that it sounds pitch perfect.
Way to go, Enya!
Sweet otherworldly music ^ I must observe that this review is a review of Enya's music on a whole.Simply,her music is remarkeable.I feel that I can hardly move whenever I am listening to her heavenly vocals and rich instrumentation.I am but a dream wandering on the tameless winds as I listen to the music,allowing it to swell inside me,boundless tides of never ending fantasy and magic.I am transported,melted,almost to tears,simultaneously sorrowing and rejoicing for forgotten and new dreams.One of my favourite songs bear the words:"Summer when the day is over,there's a heart a little colder.Someone said goodbye,but you dont know why.Is there a reason why a broken heart begins to cry?"Also the piece Exile on Watermark is truly celtic as it is powerful.
WISH I FOUND THIS IN 1988 ^ This CD is amazing and wonderful to hear. I wish I had found her in 1988!
Enter a world of beauty. ^ This CD is a must have. Watermark by Enya is absolute perfection. It's beyond beautiful, some songs are haunting and take you through a cold, yet refreshing would of paramount beauty. And some are upbeat and make your heart sing. All in all this is a CD that you will want to listen to again and again. YOU MUST HAVE IT!!
