- New Age is some of the most atrocious "music" I have heard, seeming to
- begin from the false hypothesis that you can create something entirely
- "new" without any influences. Enya on the other hand, has a very modern
- sounding music, with a very "new" sound, but she is entirely true to her
- folk roots, and does not make the pretentious claim of having created
- something "new". I've never listened to Clannad, but from reading the
- lists they sound similar to Enya.
