This is Enya's fifth original album, released five years after her previous work, which surpassed one million copies sold. Her unparalleled vocals are delivered over a soundscape that paints the rugged, desolate natural beauty of Ireland on a grand scale, like a magnificent painting.

Her new album is finally complete, her first in five years. The golden trio of Enya, lyricist Roma Ryan, and engineer Nicky Ryan have meticulously crafted every detail of this work, ensuring it bears Enya's signature sound throughout. You can enjoy Enya 120% with her signature rich strings and multi-layered choruses created through overdubbing. While there have been subtle upgrades due to accumulated experience and technological advancements, her music has not dramatically changed over the nearly 20 years since her debut. Nevertheless, Enya's albums, which offer her uniquely constructed sound (including her vocals) every few years, are like exquisite dishes prepared with a delicate touch, and it's only natural that they sell exceptionally well every time (and likely this time too). The appealing points of this album are the invented word "Loxian" created by Roma, used in tracks (1), (5), and (12) (though the song titles are in English for some reason), and the Japanese lyrics in track (7) inspired by a haiku by Matsuo Basho. Track (8), with its overwhelmingly beautiful melody, gave me goosebumps. (Tsuneo Hibino) --- December 2005 issue -- Contents (from "CD Journal Review")
