This album is relaxing and mellow, making it good to work and listen to, or just to collapse and listen to.
Some of the songs are wonderfully Enyaish, like Athair Ar Neamh, and also China Roses. Other elements of the album can be a tad moody in places, but still excellent. If you need something to relax with then buy this.
As with all of her albums it is just too short, forgiven by the fact that she must spend a lot of time working on the way her songs sound, and how the instruments affect the overall feel.

Advantages: If you hadn't heard her before, you would enjoy her soothing vocals and relaxing tunes. Heals the heart, cultivates the soul. Disadvantages: For those who know Enya well enough, the album can be a disappointment as she has offered nothing new. Her faster tunes are missing the magic of Orinoco Flow and Anywhere Is.
Advantages: Everything we have come to expect from an Enya album, technically flawless Disadvantages: After 12 years, it's losing its appeal. More invention needed. The pristine production now seems more cloying than ever. And it's only 37 minutes long (including FOUR instrumentals)
