What a lot of rubbish this video is. There appears to be absolutely nothing "sad" about Enya's story. She just chose to live privately and quietly, that's all. So, the title is pure click bait. The video is stretched out too. It repeats itself on several occasions. This channel represents the worst of KZfaq. Shame on this channel!

I had the immense oleasure of meeting Enya in July 2005, after she performed with her 4 sisters at their local church in Gweedore where her mother was choir mistress. Though photography of the sisters singing that day was not permitted, I have seen some on the internet. She is a stunningly beautiful woman, charming and very approachable. She kindly allowed me to take a photo of her. I was told that she did want to perform with Clannad when they re-formed for a one-off concert the following day, but her music company refused permission. When she performed with her sisters, I noticed that she came across as quite nervous, which may be a chicken and egg situation as to why she rarely performs in public, particularly as her recordings are so beautifully produced.

It also takes great courage and discipline to be who you are and stay who you are. i come from gaelic speaking Scotland and i understand "irish" which is also "gaidhlig".

Pretty sure _Orinoco Flow_ was her breakthrough song. How do you manage to pronounce Clannad as _"Clar-nut"_ lol? That aside I always respected her. Even more so now that she has refused to get sucked into the vitriolic entity that is social media. And to understand in one's self how selfish it would be to have a child while you are perusing your own endeavors shows intelligence. Only make the sacrifice to have a child if you are willing to accept you will likely have to give up your dreams. A child needs parents (not a nanny) for 18 years and by then the world has probably moved on from you.

I clicked on it expecting to hear a thorough analysis of the current commercial and cultural environment, which may not be the best for the kind of music Enya makes to thrive (people are more focused right now on what could trend on TikTok or the songs aggressively promoted on Spotify rather than, you know, art); instead I got a robotic take on Enya's life choices. I don't find anything in this video "sad", in fact, I'd love to have her lifestyle. It's simply wrong to equate one's artistry with their fame or (lack of) vanity.

Think of Enya as an act, or a band if you prefer, that includes 3 people: the Ryans and a singer/composer called Eithne Ní Bhraonáin. Enya and Eithne are not necessarily one and the same person. Eithne likes her privacy and never dreamt of becoming a star. She's had her normal life with friends, family, at least one boyfriend whom she ended up not marrying... Just a brilliant singer and composer not wishing to live under the spotlight. That's basically all. Tbh, I'd be pretty much like her if I were famous.
