Is Enya Going to Tour?

Okay, I’ll admit it: I love Enya. So do most of you. She’s amazing, and listening to her music is like taking a shitload of Xanax, minus the trip to the hospital and the stomach-pumping. She’s always been a rather reclusive musician, rarely granting interviews and never touring. But now she’s hinting that she might be hitting the road to support her latest album, And Winter Came, which was released on November 11.

“We’re definitely talking about it,” she says in an interview with Billboard. “I’ll be promoting until February, and that’s when we’ll sit down and think, ‘What’s next?'”

It would be awesome if she toured, but I don’t think I’d want to go. I always listen to her music when I need to calm down and go to sleep, so I’d probably wind up paying really good money to sleep through three-quarters of the show.

But, hey, she’s thinking about a tour in early 2009, and Britney Spears is also thinking about a tour in early 2009. How awesome would it be if Enya opened for Britney?

  • Weird, I always pictured her as some sort of porcelain skinned redheaded angel with long flowing hair and freckles. Not to say she’s unattractive, but I think I’m going to stick to my imaginary Enya to the backdrop of Sail Away relaxation sessions.

  • Uh, I’d say no, it wouldn’t be awesome if Enya opened for Britney Spears. One is a highly talented musician and singer from Ireland, the other is a no-talent cracker-trash dysfunctional skank from Louisiana who forgets to put on her underwear. Not really a match, I’d say.

  • OMG! When I hear her music I want to, to, to…..something…..I can assure you that it isn’t anything pleasant.

  • I’m a HUGE Enya fan. I wouldn’t like a concert, either. I prefer to have her on headphones or earplugs, as I’m laying back and experiencing the tunes. She’s always a longggg, slow eargasm.

  • lmao Beet, you nutty..
    I love Enya with all my heart, and her last album makes me cry everytime i hear it.. Reminds me so much of my mother, who is overseas, and she loves Enya more than i do.. And i miss my mom so much, and it’s almost Christmas, and she wont be with me this year again.. And listening to Enya is like if part of her was here with me…..
    Sorry, i got carried away.. I love Enya, i would pay all the money i had to go see her.. And i love Britney, but i don’t ever wanna see them together!! lol..

  • Uuuuuh I was so turned off by the last CD of Enya that know since her new one came out I rather not even keep her in my CD Collection.

    Enya have changed her songs are not as they used to be, you don’t even hear the harp and the true Celtic sound in her new songs. I mean
    Where is that soft sound with real lyrics and soft harp Celtic sound????? Where is that Enya that was a true Celtic singer???

    I miss that real Enya. She is gone for good, oh will.

    I used to be a big fan of Enya. know She is off my collection list.

  • Elli – her new stuff is genius, and always has been. Her sound is always familiar. If all she did was “soft sound with real lyrics and soft harp Celtic” stuff, wouldn’t it all sound the same?

    I’m sure she doesnt’ want you as a listener anyway. I’ve loved her for years. Piss off.

    /yea, it’s a year late. ::D
