New Age music has pretty much zero impact on the world of popular music, unless it’s made by Irish artist Enya. She’d had a sizeable hit in 1988 with “Orinoco Flow”, and her albums are always big sellers. In 2000, Enya hit it big again with the single “Only Time”, which paved the way for A Day Without Rain to sell over 15 million copies. For a New Age album. It was helped out tremendously by the single becoming a sort of a theme song used by all of the news networks showing the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. And it’s a pretty terrific song with everything there is to love about Enya…airy, moody and lovely music as a backdrop to her sweet vocals. But even though the song became a massive hit (it was also used on Friends), the album itself is another story.
This is Enya’s biggest selling album, by quite a bit. Outside of “Only Time”, the only other track that seems to have any life in it is “Wild Child”…otherwise, A Day Without Rain is what you would expect from most New Age discs…pretty, unremarkable background music. You could easily hear this album in an elevator, and you would have no idea because it blends into the walls so easily. This is almost the equivalent of musical white noise. Which is too bad, because it really is lovely sounding…there just isn’t any substance to keep it from slipping into the background. Enya has made more than a living making this music…she’s made herself an international star. Her best songs are worth hearing. This album, unfortunately, doesn’t hold up.
