What do people have against Enya?

[HEyHEY]

I actually really like her stuff. It's whimsical.

[skooooo]

1. That bear's got a really wide butt.

[XemaSab]

2. It's what they play in HELL

:o

[skooooo]

4. From what I know of it...

..it's kind of wimpy.

But if YOU like it, that's all that matters.

[HEyHEY]

6. Hey, I choke up when I hear "Feed the world" so there ya go

[redqueen]

8. Aw

:loveya:


Enya's not bad... just sorta repetitive.

[HEyHEY]

11. That's why I like it

It's not as bad as engima!

[Skittles]

21. I was gonna say

if ya ever want to torture me, lock me in a closet and force me to listen to Enya drivel :o

[MorningGlow]

3. No argument here

Lots of Enya at our wedding--I walked down the aisle to "On Your Shore". I think her music MADE LA Story too. However, "Sail Away" annoys the shite out of me, but I have issues with repetitive music. :hi:

[MrCoffee]

5. The storm scene in LA Story is great, thanks to her song.

10. Oh yeah

That and the scene when they walk down the street at night.

Damn, now I have to go watch the movie again. It'll be for, like, the 10,000th time! :hi:

16. I just cried my eyes out

:cry: :cry:

forgot about this little gem of a movie

and I don't like Steve Martin.....

but LOVE this movie


:hi:

29. It's in my top 10

Maybe my top 5. I saw it when it came out, by myself (one of the first movies I saw by myself), in Southern California, so all the skewering of L.A. was extra potent, and I laughed my ass off (till I cried, of course). I had never thought much of Steve Martin before I saw L.A. Story, but after that I thought he was brilliant and started watching all of his movies.

If you really want poignant, watch Shopgirl--it's a melancholy bookend/companion piece to L.A. Story, at least I think so. It's not goofy in the least, and makes me think that the novella and the movie give an insight into a "older, sadder, wiser" Steve Martin.

[S n o w b a l l]

25. Me too!

I walked down the aisle to Carribean Blue. We got married on a big boat in Marina Del Rey. It seemed appropriate for that.I think it's beautiful wedding music. I didn't want the traditional "here comes the bride". I like her a lot, but also hate Sail Away.

:hi:

[MorningGlow]

26. Water for us too, but pure coincidence

We got married on the deck of our house, which was on a small lake. Did it just to save money, and because we don't "do" church. It was quite beautiful!

[UndertheOcean]

7. Its more Muzak than music ....

But I guess there is worse , like rap.

[XemaSab]

9. Especially Canadian rap

x(

[HEyHEY]

13. Let your backbone slide, sucka!

[Elidor]

12. She gets crap because she comes from a region (and family) with a rich musical tradition

But I like her music. It's well-made, and very, very relaxing. She never signed up to explore the depths of the Celtic tradition, and I have no problem with that.

Plus, she's gorgeous. :blush: I'd sail away with her, anyday. She makes me twitterpated.

[BlueJazz]

14. She's OK....She does her thing and is happy doing it..... Plus.....

...her tunes are well engineered.

[lost-in-nj]

15. I love Enya

her music adds so much to a movie and to put on a pair of earphones and zone out to her is wonderful

her music was great in this movie to....
(ok the eye candy was teh AWESOME!!!!!!!)

ps
when I read your posts...... I think the polar bear is talking to me...


:scared:

:hi:

[lunatica]

17. I'm listening to Enya right now

And Enya type music and singers. I have Pandora.com on my computer and working the grind to Enya has become very relaxing and fun.

[Aristus]

18. I love Enya and her music.

Her music is very evocative of the dreamy kind of romaticism I like, and of course, she's smokin' hot! B-)

[begin_within]

19. "Orinoco Flow" rescued the 1980s from the musical dustbin.

[sniffa]

20. Is that like, incense and New Age crap?

[PeaceNikki]

22. I think she drew the comic on this month's New Yorker.

[mwdem]

24. !

:spank:

[cordelia]

23. Nothing against her at all.

I enjoy her work very much, and think I will go listen to her for a while.

[stuntcat]

27. I have 13 Enya songs :p

My Mom has awful Muzak taste, and somehow Enya's one of the only people we agree on. I'm not sure what that means, it's just the way it is.
Her songs are used for some cool remixes too :headbang:

[Doc_Technical]

28. As stated many times on other posts, the arraignment and

engineering of her songs are first rate, especially the multi-layered
"Aaahhhhs" in excellent harmony.
I especially like the little touches she does like the abbreviated "aaahhhh" on
the last upbeat of the intro to "Caribbean Blue."

[NYC_SKP]

30. Dupe nt

[NYC_SKP]

31. Loreena McKennitt, too, I love them both.

I still love the Mummer's Dance, despite it's having been overplayed.

Mummer's Dance, live from someplace groovy:

[bonito]

32. Enya, Mckennitt and October Project as well!

[baby_mouse]

33. It's a bit light.

Not much substance. Still, I like it, for what it is.

[mentalsolstice]

34. As for me nothing at all

I chill when listening to her. Very relaxing music.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

35. Absolutely nothing on my part

I adore her music and think she is a first-class musician

[ThomCat]

36. I like all of her CDs except Memory of Trees.

I think there was only one song on that CD I liked. :shrug:

The earlier ones were very creative in a subdued kind of way. :)

[Swede]

37. Nothing wrong with Enya,HEyHEY.

May It Be

[ElboRuum]

38. Nothing.

Wasn't aware this was an issue. Now Kenny G on the other hand...
