Enya’s 1988 recordingWatermarkachieved landmark success with her groundbreaking use of multi-tracking technology to fuse new age and Celtic themes and instrumentation. The meticulous production defines her sound and achieves continuity even while weaving together tender ballads, piano pieces, massively layered vocal harmonies, and symphonic synthesizer movements. Her lead vocals possess a vulnerability that reflects the lyrics’ sense of personal searching. From the ubiquitous, frothy singleOrinoco Flow(which was used to hawk Crystal Light on TV) to the hard, bold edge ofCursum Perficio, Enya’s style remains fresh and engaging today
