Editorial Reviews :
New Age diva Enya first became widely known when her 1988 album Watermark sold 4 million copies and launched the single 'Orinoco Flow.' Her follow-up, Shepherd Moons, was even more successful, selling over 10 million copies despite its slightly lower grade of ethereal enchantment. In 1997 she released Paint the Sky with Stars, an assortment of her best work from these two early albums plus gems from 1995's The Memory of Trees and the soundtrack to the BBC series The Celts. The most melodic and atmospheric examples of Enya's lovely Celtic-flavored songwriting shine on this disc. Those unfamiliar with the former Clannad member will find charm in such sweet lullabies as 'Marble Halls' and 'China Roses' while delighting in the more energetic 'Book of Days,' 'Storms in Africa,' and 'Caribbean Blue.' Overall, an outstanding collection from an artist who gives New Age a good name.
Buyer Reviews :
'Paint The Sky With Stars' (Greatest Hits Collection) was my first Enya album. I had only heard the songs, 'Orinoco Flow' and 'Book Of Days' over the years and I decided to give Enya a try. I played the CD while studying and I became mesmerized by her unique, etheral style of her instrumentation and vocal techniques. The album became one of the few albums that I thoroughly enjoyed. I loved every single song on the album. Afterwards, I bought Enya's other albums. Once again I was taken away by her music. There were some songs on the albums that were of a different style than the tracks on 'Paint The Sky With Stars,' such as peaceful, flowing instrumentals and songs sung in Gaelic, Latin and Spanish.
Give the album a try. I strongly recommend the music of Enya. The music and vocals is nothing but beautiful and inspiring. The album is a great mood album, perfect for relaxation.
Keep in mind though that the songs on this album are usually upbeat (not drumbeats, just the instruments which comprise of strings, piano, synth/keyboards!!). If you are going for a more peaceful album, I recommend her album, 'The Memory Of Trees.'
