I have fallen for Irish singer Enya after hearing the ending track of the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship movie.
If any forum member listens to her, do suggest your favourite songs / albums.

I would like to add "A Day Without Rain", a more recent album to the list. It features the song "Only Time" that was a pretty big hit. "Shepherd Moons" is also quite good. Of course her entire discography is not a long list either so add another title or two and you have them all. If you like her sound you may wish to check out the band "Clannad" that was formed by her siblings and relatives; however I am not familiar with their work.

On a related note, if you like Enya I would recommend a (hard to find) album titled "Just Another Diamond Day" by folk singer, Vashti Bunyan. None of the rich instrumentation that marks Enya's work but quite a similarity in vocal style.

Thanks Arj and Particleman,
Ya Enya is real slow in producing albums (1 in 5yrs) as she does everything herself just like a traditional Indian artisan. She sings and plays the keyboard. Everything else is the magic of post production. That's why her music is called 'New Age'.
Just to check. Will her songs sound good on an audiophile setup?

Will acquire some Enya albums and then post on what I like best. Shepherd Moons and A Day Without Rain look especially promising.
