More quotes by Enya
My influences are with Irish music, church music and classical music.
Enya
We called the album 'Amarantine' to mean everlasting. Poets use the word to describe an everlasting flower and I loved the image of that.
Enya
The ocean is a central image. It is the symbolism of a great journey.

Music is like a mirror in front of you. You're exposing everything, but surely that's better than suppressing. You have to dig deep and that can be hard for anybody, no matter what profession. I feel that I need to actually push myself to the limit to feel happy with the end result.

Enya
I don't have pets, I have two guard dogs and I don't do my own shopping it's a security thing.
Enya
I do promotion when it is necessary, but I always want to get back to the music.
Enya
I find it hard to work with other musicians because I know from experience that when they play, they play with their feeling, and that restricts me because I know I want to play in my own particular way.
Enya
I do a so-called trip into myself: I sit down at the piano and the melody might start to evolve from my playing or then I might start to sing it.
Enya
Singing in Gaelic is very, very natural to do. I think lends itself very much so to being sung.
Enya
The moon upon the ocean is swept around in motion, but without ever knowing.
Enya
There's something about Celtic mythology which is deep in the soul, and I just think that somehow she has tapped right into it.
