Since a long time ago, I've been playing with the idea to create dedicated spaces for all Enya albums and songs. Awesome Amarantine is the first completed set of pages. Click on the song's name to get to related liner notes, illustrations, trivia, lyrics and music releases. I'll be glad to hear your input about the project.
In other news, there is a new addition to the silly FAQ series entitled Living with an Enya fan - The survivor's guide.
I'd also like to point you to a wonderful Chinese Enya fansite managed by Ray. The Chinese fan community is very active and has a great Enya forum with an extensive picture archive. They also completed a project similar to Enyaclopedia and centralized all Enya information. All mentioned sites are in Chinese but you can use Google translate if you do not speak the language.
You might have seen that Enyastore tweeted that the new Enya album is to be released soon. Those tweets are not written by Enya and the account is fake.
Edit: Yes, I am sure about this. Roma Ryan and one of the Enya.com administrators confirmed that the account didn't belong to Enya when it was first opened.
I decided to enrich the content of this wonderful website and that's why I wrote this gem of a FAQ that I named 'The most useless Enya FAQ on the Internet' because that's what it is. There are also new pages about Roma Ryan and Nicky Ryan that are actually serious.
I also discovered Tumblr. If you've been living under a rock just like me, Tumblr is a place where you can scroll and scroll and Enya photos show up until you pass out from Enya image overload: I know you are still there, Enya Brasil, Msoyck
In other news, the annual 'Happy birthday, Enya' thread on Unity is now open, so you can add your birthday wishes for Enya.
I updated and completed several sections of the website:
and created some new ones:
Our little gallery is slowly growing and now contains 1625 pictures. The newest photos are always first: Amarantine (thanks to Elizabeth), Shepherd Moons, Watermark, Tokyo.
Special mention for the pictures from The Very Best of Enya Collector's edition booklet. The quality is unfortunately not amazing as they are not very large to begin with and I don't have my scanner with me. I just took photos with my camera and cleared them up in Photoshop. My favourite is the sunset photo and I used it as my wallpaper (1440x900).
In other news, yours truly is also enlarging her Enya collection and ordered the Grammy EPK because it contains an alternative version of A Life in Music documentary. Five minutes later, she found out that a part of the alternative version can be seen online on the Stylorouge website. It's very close to the standard version available on Enya - The Video Collection & The Very Best of Enya DVD but the footage is a bit different and Enya talks about Fallen Embers and Tempus Vernum in the end.
Today, I received my copy of The Very Best of Enya Collector's Edition and I'm still drooling over it. The photos are just so pretty that I want to keep the booklet under my pillow and never part with it. The liner notes are much longer than in the cd/dvd version and there is some information that I didn't know. I was especially excited to learn that the name of Enya's first composition was An Taibhse Uaighnearch - The Lonely Ghost. How cool is that?
Anyway, here is the second installment of our Enya quiz tentatively called "Useless Enya trivia for die-hard fans". There is also an easy quiz in the making for those of you not obsessed enough to answer this kind of questions.
Special mention goes to Skyscape who scored 11 out of 11 in the last quiz. Bravo!
As there are no news of the next Enya album, I have a treat for you to keep you busy in the meantime. My very first Enya song quiz! There are 11 questions in total, some easy, some plain evil.
Once you complete the quiz, feel free to share your score and thoughts in the comments. Was it too easy or difficult? Do you want me to make another one or not at all? Personally, I wouldn't be able to answer all those question off the top of my head. But that might actually be a good sign!
There are also new Enya collages in the gallery, I am rather proud of the Only Time wallpaper. It isn't my usual style but I think that it turned out quite nice.
I upgraded the news script, erased all the spam messages and disabled comments on old articles, so I hope that commenting should work fine again.
In other news, I changed the design and added new images to the gallery. I am not really sure about correctly dating all the newspaper photos, please let me know if you find any errors: tiny old promo shots, more tiny old promo shots, newspaper clippings, signed items, May It Be promo in Berlin, 2007 Grafton Street photos, Enya holding a prize for ADWR, photo from Madame Figaro.
Plus there is a great photo of Enya attending her niece's christening (thanks to Draiocht an Dulra) and the accompanying article.
I am proud to say that I've finally added a page about the Loxian Games for those of you who don't know them. Moreover I wrote an illustrated walkthrough for the first week to give you an idea of what the Games are about.
