At the risk of being lynched, is it just me who thinks that Enya's music is some of the most beautiful stuff ever made?

I hate to say this Hog, but isn't Enya kind of Emo (in a shrouded in mists kind of way)?

Next we'll be hearing that Jakey digs Alannis Morisette.

I love that phrase. I use it to describe everyone when someone asks me if I like a particular band, even if I love them.

I think Coldplay are the absolute personification of the phrase.

Heh, I was going to quote that. He played it to Stan to show him how terrible being old was.
Nice application of the "FPWDLM" phrase by Frosty Jack there. He's right about Dido too.

Well I like Enya, completely love Dido's stuff, think it's superb and I'd say that I like music... Surely more a case of " Music that's commercially liked therefore 99% of music snobs must hate it on principle"

Cheers
