ENYA IS BASICALLY amazing, and the Jean Claude Van Damme Volvo ad only served to remind us of this.

Thus, we provide a letter that can only hope to explain why we love her.

Dear Enya,

You soothe our heads when we’re feeling fragile

Who doesn’t feel relaxed listening to your dulcet tone?

You live in a big castle so are basically a real life princess

Google Maps Google Maps

You’re so great, roses spontaneously flourish in your presence

You’re probably totally into Christmas and wouldn’t shame us all for getting excited about it in November

You’ll always humour your fans by posing with their weird art

You’re nice to them, but not too nice

You won a GRAMMY. Represent

You’re probably really smart and have an honorary degree from NUI Maynooth

There you are, reading massive books by candle-light on your throne

You’ve stuck Ireland out despite the horrible weather

You don’t annoy us with Twitter rants, feuds or any sort of social media… or any social thing, at all. Are you even real?

You fly to Donegal every year to sing at midnight mass and frankly, you’re like a female Santa

You’re the best

Love,

Ireland, and the wider world
