Editorial Review:
The success of her first international hit, Watermark, confirmed Enya as less a singer or songwriter than a sonic architect: working with producer Nicky Ryan and his wife, lyricist Roma Ryan, the classically-trained pianist built vaulting cathedrals of sound, framed by luminous piano, shimmering synthesizer orchestrations, and, above all, the seemingly infinite layers of vocal harmonies she plied on every song. The deeply romantic Celtic pop on its 1991 successor, Shepherd Moons, sustains the same spectrum of hushed reverie and surging, rhapsodic releases, as well as its mix of ballads, floating midtempo pieces, and forays into Celtic and Latin--and it's every bit as seductive. The terminally hip will sneer, but it's no accident that "Caribbean Blue," the best known song here, managed to sneak onto modern rock, top 40, "adult alternative" and public radio playlists. --Sam Sutherland
Shepherd Moons Reviews:
Life is Good 
2009-09-24 - I had this cd for years and it got lost. I was very sad not to find it, but went through amazon and got it for a great deal and fast service and delivery. Now I can enjoy the music again.
Boring 
2009-01-22 - Music for the terminaly ill ward. Has no body and no soul. I have no idea why anyone would perfer this to anything from Clannad
Shepherd
2008-12-17 - Shepherd Moons is my first by Enya, then lost, and a must to replace. Beautiful music and a favortie! I purchased 2 this time because my teenage granddaughter also loved my Shepherd Moons CD. Now we are both happy.
Enya Magic
2007-11-04 - As with all of her work this one is very well done. Enya's a perfectionist and supremely good at hitting on catchy and haunting rhythms harmonys and lyrics.
GREAT MUSIC
2007-03-09 - SHE HAS SUCH SOFT MUSIC AND I LOVE IT IT JUST HELPS ME TO RELAXE.
I HAVE A LOT OF STRESS IN MY LIFE AND THIS HELPS TO GET AWAY FROM IT FOR A WHILE
