Default Sinnead. I've got goosebumps listening to this!(crank up the volume)




The only song that gives me goosebumps just by listening to it.
Close your eyes for maximum effect.

Sinnead O'Connor WHAT A TALENT.

Thought I'd share this sentiment on this particular song with this particular arrangement!

bah, if only she could have ditched the skinhead - never did her any favours imo, then again, she is as mad as a bag of loons.

If you like that, check out Enya.

IknowIknowIknow, Enya is famous (beside U2 the most sold Irish musician ever), but I do not know if she also is known in Indonesia, so I mention her.

sometimes the face, the voice, the soul serve, in a unique way, the only god: the SONG.

Though female symphonic metal vocalists are generally of extremely high quality (Simone Simons, Floor Jansen, etc.)

Long before I heard of Enya I was already a fan of her older sister and two of her brothers, and two of her uncles - the band known as Clannad. She sang with them on a couple of songs.

Yes. Soundtrack for Robin of Sherwood. Best Robin Hood adaptation I know. I'm proud owner of all three DVD sets. Enya I know since her first solo album. The music is timeless.

That's how I discovered Clannad as well. RoS was shown on a public channel here, and at the time I described the music to a friend as "As green as the forest they filmed it in."

I now have pretty much all their albums. I prefer the earlier traditional-music-with-the-ocassional-electric-guitar-thrown-in to the more recent New-Age stuff.

As for Robin, I have the entire series on videotape. Unfortunately only the first series, with Michael Praed, is available on DVD here. And I also agree that it's the best version ever.

http://www.amazon.com/Robin-Sherwood...169380&sr=8-15

Only the swcond half of third season.

However, the german box also contains the English original tone, and it is complete:

http://www.amazon.de/Robin-Hood-Die-...168887&sr=8-14

This box from English Amazon seems to include the complete three seasons of the series, it is a german box, but again with English original sound (only the box print is german, as i undersatand it).

http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-revi...#RGRD560J2YELJ

But check that you DVd player can handle zone 2 DVDs and PAL.

At least in Europe, ordering internationally at different Amazons is no problem. I occasionally do that in Britain, when prices are cheaper there (tin box of Blade Runner costed me less than half the german price, including shipping). I have recently ordered a sim via Ebay in the US, and it took just 12 days (and taxes...). eSim manages to deliver new Steel Beasts-CDs from California in 8 days or less to my German place. Always standard airmail, no express option.

Yikes, Clannad! My primary school teacher played Clannad at top volume while he did paperwork and we made a start on projects or homework. We could go home once we got a certain amount done. Straight-A student, me. Fast worker too

Enya? Allow me to quote my favourite stand-up comic, Dylan Moran

Quote:
This stage, if it hasn't already, probably will see a production of the Vagina Monologues. Which I cannot wait to see, because it sounds so fabulously ****ing stupid. Everybody knows that if female genitalia could speak, it would sound exactly like Enya.
