There is definitely something about Enya that is angel like. There are lots of people on this earth appreciate nature, but how many of them can put a song together like that? Love to wake up to this song every morning...
Enya is so comforting and makes you feel so warm inside, she makes me wants to snuggle up with a snuggie and a bowl of home made soup and listen to her whole cd.. and spend the time not thinking of any worries ...
I remember the first time I ever heard this song. Ever since then, my life has been changed. I know you will most likely never see this, Enya, but thank you for saving my soul and life with this beautiful song and your amazing talents.
Most of her songs are just not compatible with singing them live without losing this certain feeling they transportate. They are recorded with overdubbing Enyas own voice a dozen times. So she can only sing one of the parts live.
People should always show compassion and love towards each other as humanity. Although I'm not living on the country that happens, when I was 8 I felt the sorrow and heartbreaking watching the 9/11 incident happen. Looking at the World today who would have though something like this could happen. I'm 18 now, every person should be grateful to have a life to live on every moment. Cause after all this while we never know how much time we have left.
@frexspar76 This performance is sort of "half-live" she's singing the main live vocals but there is a recording of the track playing. Enya has done 100% live performances - and she has also done lip synched performances. Still a big fan, nonetheless.
i dont care for many people. they lie doublecross always trying to hurt.forgetting the most basic yet most importent. of creation. the Balance. i heartly feel she has it figured out. that in it self is a gift.im a child of nature.and all wild life children of the earth. i am at peace to thee. Blessed Be to thee Enya!
i can tell from a million lip sync videos this is the track i nthe backgroudn but u can hear her voice live over the top
she dont really do the more poppy songs more upbeat numbers live cos their too hard to do with ehr voice to keep up if she dusnt hav a choir singing it too
@trannystar listen to it carefully and compare it with the album version of only time, it's really live. i have listened to this hundred times and no playback except the chorus.
@CAYOMluver she's singing but i think theres backing also. Enya has been around for so many years but she is a very nervous performer.. thats why u don't see her doing many live performances
@mrpaparazzi94 She comes from a musical family. Her sister Moya is among Ireland's foremost folk singers. She grew up surrounded by music, and sang from an early age.
There is another live of this on here-and a great explanation from a PBS special on her vocal texturing. Now-what is the difference (can't wait for this answer) if it is a playback show???? Larry King (this is interesting) is Larry King Live. Watch the first one and it is always live-then and only then are the subsequent ones recordings of the original. Miss the point-think it didn't happen on the live segment?? Oh well-and many many musicians had tributes to raise money for the firefolks BRAVO
Nitefawn.....ty for ur comments, i worte two more below, I read a lot of commenrs saying it was not live, I think it was and it really doesn't matter, She just grabs u heart and ur feelings and lets u work out what u do next........I have never been haunted ever..........but I am everyday by this song. I will never forget, I can't i still rememeber the people i lost, and to see all the rescue people goig in eveyojne is rushing out, haunts me more. The song is the most amazing ever written
Wow I just played it again and all the feelings i have kept at bay are now here The song just envelopes u and won't let go till u open ur feelikngs up and let some out...911 was just Insanity and we will Never Ever Forget it .....How could anyone forget? many people have , or tried to, I don't want to, I lost friends there who can never come back, and that is so sad, No one deserved this, but all u who also lost friends and family......Never Ever
This song brings so many emotions from places u thought were save, I remember 911, i flew back the night b4 and my friends called me the next day wondering how i was. The feelings i have will never go away , All the people who lost their lives, and the families that remained behnd , I sense them every anniversary, and i haven't got to "Ground Zero" but i intend too. This song just breakd down all my walls .....Wow!!
OMG.........this song keeps me coming back, and on the Larry KIng Show sounds more Haunting then it has and all the proceeds r gong to the Firefighters Association for 2001 Twin Tower Terrorist Attack andno this is not a recorded effort, in to the studio... for Show!! no its live and I heard form the Lady i had wanted too last time, Ony Time will tell and I'm Irish too......... and as i have ssid before ...........this song is Haunting and the words r amaziing!! Wow!
Just a point Dothoobler, its County Donegal, Ireland, not 'Donegal County' the only county that has 'county' after the name is Waterford (Waterford County)
OMG! Seriously?! She's Irish you tit! Hence why Larry said 'singing Irish ditties Enya and I'. And can't you tell from her accent that she's not American?
I think this song is so versatile, it can be used for joyful occasions, but also for moments when the heart is wounded. This is a song, that I have loved since I first heard it and will remember.
lol what you are hearing is her singing along with 80-500 pre recordings of her own voice layered together. She admits to this, check her fansite.
Funny how other singers cop flak for using a bit of mixing or a few backing vocalists, yet enya has a whole virtual orchestra of robot voices playing along with her any time she is 'live' and that is okay :)
This is her own voice live. She sings the very top layer, while the vocals either pre recorded for the show or taken off the CD are played BEHIND her LIVE vocals.
when i first heard this song a few years ago. i thought it was an ethereal voice singing through a waterfall (like the sound sounds like an aqua like resonance)
Every time I see this interview & performance I cry silent tears. She had her finger on the pulse of the world post 9-11 & knew exactly how we all felt & how to give us this treasure. Lots of love Enya. Thank you.
I never actually understood this song, until I saw the pictures of 9/11. "Only time" will heal things
