Left to me, Enya's song is as angelic as you can get. It helps me to concentrate and tackle difficult issues in an amazing simple way.

Some Nigerians are just so gullible,hating me age music for no definite reason. Well most people prefer noise to real deal. nothing relaxes more like listening to Enya, Yanni, Diane arkenson , Chris spheeris and lastly kitaro,

jaymichael: listening to WILD CHILD right now to face the weather
As a child of God and a person that wants to make heaven, u are not suppose to listen to those songs all wordly songs eg is enya, celine dion, elton john even nigerian songs, because their producers pray demonic prayers on them and cast spells on the music and can hinder u from making heaven, if u doubt me then ask urself how many times do i play worship music in a day than the wordly music, u see that its already controlling u. Be careful , get wisdom, remember that satan is also known as the accuser of the brethren, he is very crafty.

lorretta u: The truth is that Enya's music is kinda demonic.have any one of you downloaded the lyrics of orinoco flows?
Lol.if u did,you'd know what I mean.
Even enigma is in the same demonic boat with her.
But the funny part is that I love her music to bits.demons and all.
I guess I'm a little bit demonic too undecided
I love enigma too.
The track 'sadness' is as Demonic as they come but aww do I love it?
Mmm I love it to bits.makes me hiiiigh.
I guess I love demonic songs.But I'm sure not going to hell for that grin grin
Demonic? she once said in an interview that her influences are IRISH MUSIC, CHURCH MUSIC & CLASSICAL MUSIC. she even plays for the pope, besides, which is more eerie, her music or RC liturgical music?

yep u r ryt ...."now we r free" is oft credited 2 Enya, but was actually done by Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerard.

Demonic? That depends on the person listening to it. Her songs are spiritual. They lift the soul and make you go into trance. The purity of your heart will determine whether u'll see angels or demons in your state of trance.

And my verdict:
Demonic? Hell nooooo ....so dnt let ur friend's inability 2 waltz into an ethereal musical romance kyp u frm enjoyin urs, cos d "enya is demonic syndrome" oft starts frm a friend(who cldnt connect, probably due 2 too much agbero music) discouragin another wit terms lyk "grave music, coven music etc"

Congratulations. Welcome to the club of the initiated. You know what you are talking about. Most people credit some of Hans Zimmer's work to Enya and I can see why. It's such an easy mistake to make.

Enya, Enigma, and my upcoming favorite "Fever ray".
Fever ray's track "if I had a heart delivers a general spine-chilling
unconventional, dark and
experimental style with its slow
tempo, organ backing, repetitive
synth beat and distinct vocals." Most of my friends describes the song as "dark and hypnotic", but
still maintaining the song's dark
undertone."

The song is an opening sequence to the new TV series the "Vikings."

Wetin concern me if her song is demonic? I dey hear old celtic, abi na latin? After all which songs can be more ungodly dan Flavour- ukwu nwanyi owerri, ara-darada etc? I LOVE ENYA JOOOR!
Re: People Consider Enya's Songs As 'demonic' - Why? by chygoz3(m): 6:49am On Jun 08, 2013
People around me used to say that too. Well i call them ignorant. That's the same way i was watching Yanni's tribute album and one guy came into my room, watched the video for some time and then suddenly concluded that Yanni was g.a.y because of his music. I mean can you imagine? Enya is one of my favourite artists. My favourite songs include china roses, carribean blue, book of days, wild child, flora's secret, may it be, if i could be where you are, now we are free (gladiator soundtrack that's if she is the one that made it), adimeus, pilgrim and so many others.

lorretta u: Phrases like
In the shades of avalon
Far beyond the yellow sea
Feel the power of babylon
Far beneath the coral sea(wetin she dey find beneath sea
In the isles of Ebony
E.t.c
Makes people say her songs are demonic.
Cos most of these words have direct reference to old magic
Isles and avalon e.t.c refer to old magic which used demonic powers.
Won't stop me from loving it though
I that is why its called WORLD MUSIC. Its influenced by local traditional culture. She even stated IRISH MUSIC as one of her influences. Local music are usually influenced by the environment, surroundings and nature. Our local traditional music is most times about FOREST, BUSHES, SPIRITS, ACTIONS OF ANCESTORS WHO LATER BECAME gods, REINCARNATION, GREAT KINGS OF THE PAST, SPIRIT OF MOTHER NATURE etc etc... most of us don't consider our very own sister Angelique Kidjo as singing "demonic" music despite the fact that she confess to be a follower of traditional African religion and she sings so proudly about it. VOODOO CHILD is a good example. Think of rural Ireland, you can't help but think of the sea...

gallant white: Guy you are funny am a fan of enya infact a great one all her solo listed hear by her fans are regarded as outdated have you guyz heared of Blue Skies and Deora ar Mo Chroi then you can talk of uniqe greatness.

Did you just say outdated? Okay, apart from these two you listed above can you list like ten other tracks that haven't been listed on this thread? And for her kinda genre, the more outdated does it for me jor

Just like "I'll always love you" is credited to Whitney Houston instead of Dolly Parton who did the song like 20 years before Whitney

Cold blooded: I can fight for Enya, Enigma, Yanni and their likes. I found solace listening to their songs.

Talking about being "demonic" have you got time to watch Enigma's videos or even reflect on d title or her songs like "return to innocence","principles of lust","beyound the invisible" "way to eternity"etc; she uses occultic signs a lot and mimics the Catholic church. I think her songs are more esoteric than Enya's.

you are digracing ,alot of you fail in exams because of this.

I believe its d vehicle dt got one into trance that will determine what you see. if u are under Grace (pure in heart), no harm.
Hmmmm, really got me thinking. A More intelligent post than those who want to "feel among". I schooled in Delsu, Abraka. There was an igbe house "(water spirit worshipers), when they roll out their drums for worship and play their rhythmic beats, some person can't stay. My hostel was an audible distance from the place. Some will hear from a distance and turn away quickly. There were some that became transfixed about n start the "slow graceful dance" a new gal in d hostel was caught in d beats n started "d dance". At the end, she started crying, feeling she has disgraced herself. The greatest trick of the devil is making people believe he does not exist. Orinocco flows does this. Experiment @ ur own risk. What about those relative of ours that couldn't do without "hard" rap of tupac, biggie, snoop n others... Not all minds can handle these music. My own brother was one, but thank God for his mercy. Enya does this too, in a slow subconscious way.

On the contrary, its not about lack of exposure, its about taste, opinion, perception, interpretation and of course CHOICE.
