Anybody know of any theatrical, choir-sounding songs that are uplifting and not religious? Like Enya? by Enodia Q: I love some of Enya's songs that sound really theatrical and choir-sounding , really uplifting. Anybody know of any songs like this?

A: i would just research irish satb stuff even google riverdance or celtic choir music if i were you . I also have done shadowland and he lives in you from the lion king stage show musical with satb choirs which sound beautiful because of the african harmony. they have lead parts though.

What is the name of this song from enya with preists in the background? by Kelly Q: There is this really weird song by enya with these men singing in really low voices and they sound like preists. Its in a different language and part of it sounds like this "SAW DEEM WA" and it has a flute in the background

A: Actually this is NOT a song by Enya, it is a piece by Enigma and it is called Sadeness Part 1. Too many illegal downloading sites and even YouTube videos try to incorrectly claim that the song would be by Enya but Enigma has NOTHING to do with Enya.

Can someone list the Instrumental tracks that Enya composed? by نیکلاس Q: I really like listening to soft music at night, and I LOVE Enya's Instrumentals. Can someone please list me all of the instrumentals shes composed for her albums? Thanks.

A: You can actually find the full Enya discography and lyrics from her official website, the ones that are not listed in the lyrics section are instrumentals then.

Which Enya song was also a main part of a 1940s gothic near-horror movie with Vincent Price? by Andy Colter Q: I loved the song when Enya first came out with it. It freaked me out when my old favorite scary movie came out on DVD and there it was as a song throughout the movie. The movie was Dragonwyck with Price and Jean Tierney.

A: You can check the lyrics from Enya's official site and see if any of them matches with the song you heard. Though then again I have to say that although I'm a huge Enya fan I have never heard about her music having been part of a movie like this!

What do you think about when you listen to Enya? by Mackenzie Q: I am 19 and not many people I know listen to Enya. My opinion, she is the most contemplative musician out there. I think so much when I listen to her music about things I don't think about ordinarily. I think of nature and calmness. It sounds hippyish, I know. But every song has its own memory for me. Anyone else get that way too?

A: One word only describes her music best -unique. Enya's music really stands out beautifully from today's rubbish bubblegum pop where everything you hear is just all the same. Mystic, divine, wonderful... I wish there would be more artists out there like Enya and I cannot wait for her new album "And Winter Came" to be released in November this year!!

where can I get an enya fanmail address where she can sign an autograph for me? by Mimz Q: so my sister's birthday is coming up, and both her and I adore enya. it would be nice to find the quickest place in which enya can sign an autograph for us. THANX!

A: Unfortunately, your chances for an autograph are close to zero, as Enya does not perform any of her music live and is also a very private person. Your only hope is to write to her via her record label Warner Music UK, but please don't hold your breath nor have too high hopes to receive a reply and/or an autograph.

Is it okay for a teenage girl to listen to music related to Enya or Celtic Women? by Brianna Castillo Q: I am a 15 year old girl. I will occasionally listen to orchestra music or opera and sometimes songs that sound like Enya/Celtic Women. I just want to know if this is strange for a teen girl. I feel it does sound a little odd for someone my age to be intrigued by these sort of genres of music. Is it weird?

A: I don't see how its strange or weird. Everyone has a different taste, no matter what age group we are in.

What does listening to sensual music,such as Sade and Enya say about a person's personality? by Q: Dido,Sade,Enya.

A: Although, it could mean some people are more sensitive or romantic than others; I don't think it does. It's just a music preference since it has a slow melodic vibe and meaningful lyrics that are universably relatable.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
