Watermark
Just the kind of music I like, quiet and easy to listen to.
Part two of Enya's trifecta.

WOW!!!
What an amazing leap from The Celts to this masterpiece.
Nothing really like the original.
More mature, beautiful, haunting and extremely memorable.
Not a weak track on the disc. It's kind of a toss up, which is better, this one or Shepard Moons?
I'm going with Shepard.
Another masterpiece from Enya.
Highly recommended!!!
I love Enya 2008-03-28
This is one of my very favorite CDs. I've had it for years. I recently had to put my car in the shop and when I got it back, 5 of the 6 CDs in the changer were gone (er, STOLEN!), including this one. I had to immediately re-purchase it. I can't do without!
Excellent Enya 2008-02-04
First time i heard Enya was back in 1988 with the song Orinoco flow.I thought the song had a good sound,but it wasnt exactly my type of music.It wasnt untill 1997 when i heard the song Watermark i started appreciating her music.I had heard some songs such as Storms In Africa,which at one stage was played on an add.But it wasnt till 2002 when i got some Albums.This album has got such a unique sound.The music fits into certain moods,uplifting realy.I have heard it played on alot of TV shows.Every now and then i put it on,it can help you reflect on things, and is not a distraction if you are concentrating.
Beautiful. Original. Classic. 2007-09-26
The very definition of an excellent CD. I generally listen to classical music, but Watermark has always held a special place in my heart. Art at its finest.
Review of "Watermark" by artist "Enya" 2007-09-17
Enya's 1988 recording
Watermark achieved 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. Although Enya's pristine voice isn't especially strong, her lead vocals possess a vulnerability that reflects the lyrics' sense of personal searching. From the ubiquitous, frothy single "Orinoco Flow" (which was used to hawk Crystal Light on TV) to the hard, bold edge of "Cursum Perficio," Enya's style remains fresh and engaging today.

A Wonderful Collection from Enya! 2007-08-14
This is one of my favorite Enya CDs! Anyone who loves peaceful calming music should really enjoy it. Considered by many to be "New Age" or "Celtic" I think her music is just "beautiful!"
...TIMELESS LOVELY MUSIC.... 2007-07-16
She has never done better! This was the first I knew of Enya! I heard it playing when it first came out in my local music shop at the time, and asked the clerk what that was that was playing, and immediately bought a copy of this lovely album.
With all the wonderful stuff Enya has done since this, (and I have it all), I do not believe she has ever done better than this simply georgeous, lush, listening experience.....truly music to "take you away!"
MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! ~operabruin
Enya Watermark 2007-06-03
I have always enjoyed Enya's works and own most of her CD's. I seem to have missed Watermarks until recently. Now I am thrilled, this is the best of all. It's from 1989 but if you enjoy Enya buy this CD you won't be disappointed.
Repetitive rhythms that take you away 2007-02-01
New Age music is hard to define for those who have not heard it. But if you had to name landmark albums in the growth of New Age music, this would probably be one of them. Released in the late 80's, this is probably one of the most popular New Age albums, especially by a female artist. The musical pieces are a collection of both instrumental pieces and songs, all of which remind one of nature scenes. Many of the pieces sound similar, and listening to this CD will give you a good feel of Enya's vocal range and talent. But all the pieces are good, and some are downright great; especially the famous Orinoco Flow. Overall, a good buy for relaxing music.
