Shocking Facts About Enya by SoapQueen(f): 12:37am On Jun 18, 2018 |
For lovers of Enya's music, these are some amazing facts about the Irish born dainty songbird . 1. The Titanic connection. Let's face it! There are some guys whose hearts you can break but definitely not James Cameron's! James Cameron is the producer of blockbusters like the "Titanic" and "Avatar". Enya was asked by Cameron do the soundtrack for the "Titanic" movie by collaborating with another artiste. Enya said "NO" because she doesn't do collaborations and she turned Cameron down. (Collabo no dey always follow for promo) Guess he was so heartbroken he had to heal with the song "My heart will go on" cc lalasticlala

2. Enyanomics Okay. There is Economics and there is Enyanomics! Enyanomics is the business of making money without leaving your home or comfort zone. Enya has sold 5 times the number of albums Beyonce has sold in the US. She did this without a single tweet, no touring or advert. A whooping 75 million albums. Roger that! 13 Likes

3. Polyglot Enya isn't just like every one of us. We have to admit that. The songbird can sing in not 1,2 but 10 languages. These languages include; English, French, Welsh, Irish, Sindarin, Latin, Japanese and the list goes on! She is so good with languages that she created her own language. Enya will give the interpreters at the UN a run for their money. 2 Likes

4. Spartan lifestyle Unlike other members of the overclass in the world, Enya loves to lead a very simple life. With a net worth of over a $100 million, Enya is the richest solo artist in Ireland but the lithe songstress lives in a quaint castle in Ireland together with her best companions; nine cats. She sees only black and white movies. Let's call her "The Enigma ". 1 Like

5. More than a star. When speaking of stars, Enya is on the pedestal. No, scrap that! Enya is more than a star, she is a planet, albeit small. In 1978, an asteroid; 6433 Enya was discovered. Your bet is as good as mine, it was named after Enya. 5 Likes

Awaitingkopa: She isn't. Enya is Catholic. Some persons do not just love the media. She is one of them. She said she is out to sell her music not herself. They call her "demonic" because her songs are known for tranquility, serenity and peace. 12 Likes |

enoch273: Say what you know please. For starters Yanni enjoys more patronage than Enya. As far back as the 80s and 90s, corporations like Voice of America, airline companies et al have been patronizing him. In short Yanni has made more money is scoring than many New Age artists. I even prefer Gregorian Knights and Vangelis to your monotonous Enya. If you wanna enjoy ethereal sounding musical instruments, check out Yanni. His music deals more in practical instruments than your machine enhanced and filtered Enya's music. Some of her hits are copyright. Deep Forest owns "Sweet lullaby", Adiemus is someone's else work. I cann't recall his name now. Enya is good but you don't have to compare. Where i prefer her is lyrical contents. You can sing the wording of some of her songs unlike Yanni. 3 Likes |
