The Top Ten

Only Time

I came here from Friends S8E13, The One Where Chandler Takes a Bath. So glad I discovered Enya and this gem of a melody!

Used as a soundtrack in media covering the attacks of September 11, 2001.

Every time I listen to this song, it touches my broken heart. This song is amazing.
May It Be

Whenever I watch The Fellowship of the Ring and hear this song, I just feel like I'm drifting away from this world to a dreamland. The Lord of the Rings Part 1, 2, and 3 are my favorite! This is a calm and breathtaking song, and I really love it!

This was the very first song I ever heard by Enya, and I fell in love with it. Her voice is amazing and so pure sounding. I love The Lord of the Rings, especially for the awesome soundtrack it had.

I love this song! It's calm and motivational as well as relaxing. Whenever I watch The Fellowship of the Ring, I always watch the credits in order to listen to this.
Caribbean Blue

This has got to be my favorite so far. I love the ocean theme that the song paints an infallible image of. You feel as if you are drifting on a docile current of waves, the sun is shining modestly, and a flock of seagulls flies by. Just listen to it, and let it take you on a scenic journey.

All Enya songs have this magical quality that evokes an emotion inside you and transports you into another place, but Caribbean Blue gives me the strongest feeling. I feel like I'm on a boat alone on an endless sea, and it's so serene and magical.
Orinoco Flow

This is the best, with no doubt! I love this tune so much. Such a soulful melody and very inspiring as well. Whenever I listen to it, it moves me in many ways.

Easily the best Enya song ever. Only Time is the only one that can compare. I love this song!

Are you kidding me? This is absolutely number one. Her biggest hit!
If I Could Be Where You Are

This song is absolutely beautiful. I love everything Enya, but this one really spoke to me.
The Memory of Trees
Hope Has a Place
Storms in Africa

This song is enchanting.
Imagine you are in a desert during a windy day. You can run across it, feel the wind hit your face, and see a friendly lion. Then, you get on the lion and race through the desert, never getting tired.
Enya truly knows how to make real music.
China Roses
Tea-House Moon

I'm simply crazy about this song! The hauntingly beautiful melody has me playing and listening to it over and over.
I even told my family to play it at my funeral when I leave this earth, so I can go out in style. It's absolutely my favorite of all time!

The Contenders

Oiche Chiun (Silent Night)

It is the best version of Silent Night I have ever heard. I wish I could find it to purchase.

Most stunning version of Silent Night I have ever heard. Sensational!

First Enya song I heard. At least got to be somewhere on the list.
Anywhere Is

The best song of Enya. Hands down. The musicianship is flawless. The vocals are enchanting in some parts of the song! Well-structured verses. This should be number one.

This song is awesome! Anywhere Is is the best song of Enya.
Watermark

This masterpiece is easily a top five! What's it doing at 21st place? People don't know it, that's the only explanation.

Simply her best! Smooth and soft piano sends chills up your spine.
The Celts

Wow, guys! You will not believe it, but simply like it because you will miss one-half of your life if you miss this pleasure! Have fun and good day to one and all!
The Humming
Wild Child

My absolute favorite, but there are very close seconds. She has the voice of an angel.

I can spend hours and hours hearing this song.

Listened to this song today. Hit like a déjà vu, but I do seem to be able to place it. Maybe from a previous birth. Timeless.
The Longships
Fallen Embers
Evening Falls
The Magic of the Night

This is a very underrated song that could only be found in Sounds of the Season: The Enya Holiday Collection EP or Amarantine Special Christmas Edition. It should be a holiday classic because it's so beautiful.
It's right up there with "Trains and Winter Rains" and "White Is in the Winter Night" among Enya's best Christmas songs.
Athair Ar Neamh
How Can I Keep from Singing?

Memorable and describes our love of singing.

Should be much higher - angelic.
One Toy Soldier
Exile

This song makes me kind of sad, but at the same time, it gives me new hope. It's amazing.
