It's was a big task for Enya to top her 2000 smash hit album, A Day Without Rain, so she decided to do something different for her follow-up album, Amarantine. The first few seconds into the first track, you'll realise this album is way different! It opens up with "Less Than A Pearl", featuring dramatic and almost symphonic percussion and more vocals and bigger vocals than previous songs; it's almost like an enormous choir and symphony! The title track, "Amarantine", is very much like "Only Time" - smooth and melodic. Track 5 is "The River Sings". If you like her 1988 hit song, "Orinoco Flow", then you'll love this song! It's radio-friendly, almost dance and will get stuck in your head! The album doesn't feature any Irish songs, but instead has a beautiful Japanese track and one in Loxian, a language made up that was inspired by The Lord Of the Rings. The deluxe edition of the album feature a bonus cd of Christmas holiday music. Check out "The Magic Of the Night". This awesome song was lucky enough to open the lighting of the tree ceremony at Rockefeller Plaza, in New York! Over, this cd is definitely one of Enya's to have in your collection!Read full review
In my humble opinion Enya has the greatest singing voice I've ever had the pleasure to hear. So it's fair to say I'm biased. Amarantine was Enya's sixth non-compilation album and consists of twelve track which display her immense vocal variety to its fullest - she's also plays all the instruments heard. Can this album be surpassed, well yes I suppose so, the special Christmas Edition comes as a two disk set with an extra four tracks.
i,ve got all of enya`s cd`s so had to buy this one too.enya got great relaxing and spiritual music-takes you far away from all other music that surrounds you everywhere and every day -good for ure pease of mind -romantic music as well do recomendall the cd`s from her enjoy
