Enya - Part 2 of some reappearing tunes 💡🎶

Показать описание

A slightly longer compilation featuring similar motifs and melodies across Enya's music 😁🎶🌟

00:00 Fairytale (I)
00:22 Someone Said Goodbye
00:43 Reflections
01:10 Remember Your Smile
01:45 Morning Glory
01:56 Journey Of The Angels
02:14 Exile
02:44 As Baile
03:20 Orinoco Flow (Sail Away)
03:47 On My Way Home (Short Remix)

As well as slightly more hidden ideas, there are more noticeable examples of an idea reappearing in Enya's music, for example, lyrical references to her famous song Orinoco Flow (Sail Away) 😄⛵
(These occur in the Enya songs On My Way Home, Lazy Days, Miraculum, and Echoes In Rain.)
I would say that the last few songs in the video (Exile/As Baile and Orinoco Flow/On My Way Home) are perhaps the more obvious, or intentional examples. "Turn it up!" 😆🎛️⛵

*Somehow the copyright for Orinoco Flow didn't appear; instead misidentified as Caribbean Blue

The musical ideas from the B-side piece 'Morning Glory' seem to be used quite frequently in later Enya songs, including 'Wild Child', 'Amarantine' and 'Journey of the Angels' as shown here. ✨️

The parts in 'Fairytale' and in 'Someone Said Goodbye' were both the same length when I originally trimmed the tracks, which was interesting to find. 💡

Also intriguing was how the piece 'Reflections' bears resemblance to one of Enya's actual reflective songs from Dark Sky Island, 'Remember Your Smile'; a sort of reflection 3 decades later. 🥹 💭
I joined the songs using an Audio Joiner tool online and also Canva (mostly for fonts and graphics) and also PowerPoint for the opening slides of both (so I could use the 'Paint The Sky With Stars' font, haha) 😄🎶🎨

Instead of a few together at the end, a picture of Enya appear alongside the corresponding song, ± 2 years from the album's release year. 😊🌠
There are also English subtitles added where lyrics appear ✅

Whether or not you knew of these examples before, hopefully you enjoy this video as reference or that it is simply nice to have a listen to 😇🎶
