As each new Enya release has washed over all who have ears to hear, as each heaven-touched work leaves admirers sitting speechless in slack-jawed wonder, questions eventually come to mind: Might her layered, choral-like approach gradually become predictable or stale? Will she ever exhaust her deep reservoir of soul-stirring ideas? Remarkably, A Day Without Rain, Enya's fourth release since her 1988 breakthrough, Watermark, establishes new artistic heights for the gifted Irish vocalist and keyboardist. The project, polished and refined over a five-year period in the company of longtime collaborators Nicky Ryan (producer) and Roma Ryan (lyricist), may qualify as her best yet--a radiant, beatific collection of works that command attention with their cathedral-like resonance as they soothe your spirit with some of Enya's loveliest, most graceful voicings ever. The disc's opening three tracks (including the spellbinding "Only Time") form a gorgeous trilogy that suggest Enya has deepened her focus on the nexus where sophisticated pop and regal mysticism, the twin rivers of her singular sound, form a seamless intersection. The disc's gentle timbre is disturbed only once, and in memorable fashion, with "Tempus Vernum," a marshalling of mythic sonic forces that brings to mind the theme from the De Beers diamond commercial, but with a Celtic/Goth edge. Additional highlights abound. The closing "Lazy Days" will leave your soul dancing in a shower of flower petals and sunshine. A wonderful recording. --Terry Wood

Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5
1) Only if the Lyrics Were Printed in a Bigger Size [Rating: 3 out of 5]
I would give this album a higher rating if the lyrics were printed in a larger size.2) Great Music For Relaxing! [Rating: 4 out of 5]
You can not go wrong with any of Enya's CDs. She has a different sound that you will not find anywhere else. Her songs are soothing, and are great for down time, taking a bath- even my infant son loves it. Enya's beautiful lyrics and sounds will keep you smiling all day.3) Best Enya Ever [Rating: 5 out of 5]
This is Enya's best work. Her lyrics and music always touch your heartstrings. Romantic and happy with a touch of melancholy. Flora's Song makes me think of skipping through fields of flowers. This CD flows perfectly.4) Nice stuff. [Rating: 4 out of 5]
If anything, I'd say it's too short. (34:26)Nice music, though. Especially 'Tempus'.5) WHAT TO SAY? ENYA....IS......ENYA....HEAVEN MUSIC [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Just that. Heaven Music. Really Really Good compilation form Enya. for me was the last really good compilation from her. Recommended
