It's so lovely to think that her sweet melodies come from someone who is so sweet herself, and has never let fame go to her head!! It makes listening to her songs even more special because you know she is really as she seems! :-) x
No, not lipsycncing. The strings I agree are not real. Enya plays most if not all instruments on her songs...and dubs her voice multiple times, up to 500 times, for the back up vocals, is the highest is what I heard. So for 'back up vocals' they would play the track...however, Enya is singing with the back up vocals...Live.
Wow. That was the one and only time I've seen Enya slip up in a performance! She did a very good job at covering it up and continuing on without a change in her expression or any other falter! Enya is such an amazing person. No one else could be that talented and beautiful and still have a charming personality! Wow. She's just amazing...
Well the strings are obviously fake, but I don't think she's only lip syncing. I think she's singing over playback, because on the record, the vocals are always in perfect unison, and if you listen to this carefully, sometimes they aren't. Lots of artists lip sync, but few are as talented in the studio as Enya, and fewer still are as pretty.
Well I'm sure if you came up with the right amount of money she might sing a song for you, maybe invite you to her castle to sing it live just for you! Got a few million to spare?
she is not lipsyncing otherwise you wouldn't hear her slip up at the end she says what a way instead of dadada! proof that she isn't lipsyncing!! her voice is just so smooth it looks like she's lipsyncing!!
she is lipsyncing here.. no doubt :-) BUT, who cares? It's still her song, she made it and it is her voice playing.. that's more than we can expect from many artists out there!
WHAT ELEGANCE she possesses!!! It doesn't matter WHERE she is or WHAT she's performing...NO OTHER artist carries themself with the SHEER GRACE that Enya has!!
And this particular song?? INCREDIBLE!! LOVE the staccato-sound of the strings in this!! Stunning harmonic quality as well!!
i just noticed something, at 3:15 ,watch her lips and you notice that she is about to sing "what a way" but she realized it was wrong so before she lip sync the wrong words she goes back to "da da da" part.
I see your point but I still don't see her mix up. I don't really care. She says she loves doing stuff live I just don't see why she would lip sync. She's still a great singer. And remember people, her music is very complex and hard to do live probably. I'm sure someone would have noticed something in all of this that all of the intruments and vocals weren't really going.
Best Singer to ever live, very soft voice and great use of orchrestration to back up her music she is a femal version of beethoven except she still beautiful.
Can everyone stop arguing about Enya singing live? Can no one tell by her breathing and the slight pulses of her neck that she IS singing LIVE? The 'haas' are performed by backing vocalists and are actually SUNG and NOT lipsynched/pre-recorded. Please just stop arguing and listen to the beautiful music.

Nice disclaimer buddy :)
As you said her voice is there somewhere amongst the 80-500 layers she pre records of herself.
I never understand how this chick got away with such a gimmick so long.
maybe because it does sound great I admit.
But still, the amount of flak other singers get just for using a few backing vocalists on Stage and here is Enya with 500 synthesized robots singing with her and that's okay lol
Enya's voice is beautiful without the layering. Listen to the songs she's done without and you'll see. Let some voiceless hack like Spears try without the layering and sampling and you'll see some real shite.
I would appreciate to be linked to performances of her minus the playback. All i've been seeing are performances wherein it's edging to the point of lipsynching (or are they?).
I've seen Moya Brennan (her sister) do tons of obviously live performances, i'm miffed why she can't just use her voice with few instruments for her lives. = /
vuxfeon: "...how this chick got away with such a gimmick..." She's still "getting away with it" to this very day & may she continue to do so.
When your writing & singing buys you a multi-million dollar castle without having to tour please let me know. THEN I'll be willing to listen to you gripe. But since none of us on this thread has her kind of smarts & talent & no one's paying you to be a critic just enjoy the music without the armchair quarterbacking.

The cellos are live, and she IS singing: against the multi tracked layers of her own voice. She is definitely playing the piano.
To that extent, this is a live performance.
