Paint the Sky with Stars: The Best of Enya is an excellent 16-song overview of Enya's career, containing 14 selections from The Celts, Watermark, Shepherd Moon and The Memory of Trees - including "Caribbean Blue," "Anywhere Is," "Marble Halls," "Book of Days" and, of course, "Orinoco Flow (Sail Away)" - as well as two previously unreleased songs ("Only If...," "Paint the Sky with Stars") that fit comfortably with her past work. Although Enya is, in many ways, an album artist that creates a mood and sustains it through the course of one disc, this is a fine sampler for listeners that only want the hits and highlights.

Reviews:

Entertainment Weekly (12/12/97, p.90) - "...proves that no one can make a one-four-five chord progression sound more enchanting. The new titles track is a snoozer in a bad way, but the rest will put you to sleep with a smile on your face." - Rating: B+
