Editorial Review:
New Age diva Enya first became widely known when her 1988 album Watermark sold 4 million copies and launched the single "Orinoco Flow." Her follow-up, Shepherd Moons, was even more successful, selling over 10 million copies despite its slightly lower grade of ethereal enchantment. In 1997 she released Paint the Sky with Stars, an assortment of her best work from these two early albums plus gems from 1995's The Memory of Trees and the soundtrack to the BBC series The Celts. The most melodic and atmospheric examples of Enya's lovely Celtic-flavored songwriting shine on this disc. Those unfamiliar with the former Clannad member will find charm in such sweet lullabies as "Marble Halls" and "China Roses" while delighting in the more energetic "Book of Days," "Storms in Africa," and "Caribbean Blue." Overall, an outstanding collection from an artist who gives New Age a good name. --Karen Karleski

Paint the Sky with Stars: The Best of Enya Reviews:
Enya's best! 
2009-09-06 - I have 4 CD's of Enya and this is my favorite album of her. If you are a fan of Enya, then this album is definitely a must have. Whether I'm happy, sad, mindful, upset, hurt, etc, Enya's sounds really put me in a notion of peace and sanctuary. There have been times when I've played this album and I've felt that i've been in a church, other times in heaven, and other times enjoying the great outdoors. I can safely say that I've never had any negative reactions or problems with her sounds.
A suggestion: for those who may feel that her sounds seem boring or sleepy, all I can say is believe and/or acknowledge and her sounds shall capture the heart, mind, and soul.
Great job, thank you Enya, and may God go with you.
Beautiful and relaxing music! 
2009-09-02 - I love this tape. I didn't realize at the time of purchase that this is the tape that was always played at Beauty School when we gave facials. Very relaxing and enjoyable music. My kids even like to listen to it!
enya greatest hits 
2009-07-19 - Enya is a Celtic New Age artist I enjoy. Her music is very relaxing to listen to. This album, Paint The Sky With Stars, is a good collection of her hits.
The best of Enya 
2009-05-08 - It really is the best of Enya. There are a few songs not on this CD that I still regard highly as "Enya's Best", but all of the songs here are "greats" in my my book (of days? lol)
This CD will not be under-appreciated in anyone's collection.
paint the sky 
2009-02-26 - The CD was exactly what I wanted. It came in a minimal amount of time.
