Celtic mythology is incorporated into the popular image of the druids. Merlin in his tall hat turning Wat into a fish or a squirrel. A powerful nature religion peopled with druids and bards who spent as long learning their craft as Buddha spent under the banyan tree seeking nirvana. A religion of magic and wonder with one foot in our world and the other in the land of fairy. This "Disney" version of druidism ignores the bloodthirstiness of the Celtic pantheon and the human sacrifice involved in their propitiation, often by fire and, possibly, by boiling alive. In ancient Gaul, until Roman Christianization, the Celts decorated their homes with the heads of the enemy.
Everytime I listen to the heavenly songs of ENYA, I am being transported back to the world of CELTS!

I think so. She's actually an Irish and Ireland's roots was dominated with the CELTS thousands of years ago.

Ah. Mao siguro ingun ana iyaha music. Soulful kaayo. Maybe she's going back to her roots.
Enya's songs give me a mental image of high cliffs, green meadows, and the sea crashing against huge rocks.
They also for some reason remind me of the movie Braveheart.
