I would love to win this album for my husband. He absolutely loves Enya and rarely buys cds for himself because he can't rationalize spending the money on them when there are other bills. I think this would make a nice surprise for him. =)

I want this Enya CD to give to my husband. I actually meant to buy it for him for Christmas but never did get the chance to do so. He LOVES Enya and has all of her CDs.
Trish A. Dec 16, 2008, 3:21pm EST
Thank you for offering this possibility. I've come to enjoy Enya's music while riding in the car with my daughter. It never fails when I ask her who a song is by she giggles and tells me it's Enya! Usually I want to give Gather prizes to those I love. This time I would truly love to keep the CD for myself. Her music speaks to my soul and would be perfect to have on when I write. It also would remind me of the time my daughter and I had before and after she had our lovely grandson.

I knew Enya before most people did, in the 80s. I worked with some lesbians who made her their patron saint (sort of). In the medication room, the very cool nurse always played her. So that was back when she was considered "Alternative Music".

I'm glad she's still around !!!

We are an Irish household and love all things Celtic and Irish. We've both worked and volunteered at the North Texas Irish Festival at Dallas Fair Park several years, as well as the Scottish Festival in Arlington, TX. We've seen Riverdance, Feet of Flames (Michael Flatley), and have most of Enya's CDs, and a host of other Irish/Celtic CDs (Riverdance, Celtic Woman, The Chieftains, our favorite group GAELIC STORM...). So what can I say, to have another Enya CD would be a loverly thing indeed!
