Reply to comment by Darth_Corleone in TIL Enya's music "Only Time" re-entered the Billboard Top 100 reaching number 43, thirteen years after the original release thanks to it being featured in Volvo's Epic Split commercial with Jean-Claude Van Damme by dont_mess_with_tx

That... wasn't Enya. It was Enigma.

To be fair, I've seen some compilation albums which have both their songs included due to being mellow and focused on tranquility and meditation.

I mean, I've heard some of Enya's music throughout the years but never knew the artist, then really dived into it when I learned her name from the Lord Of The Rings song she sung, "May It Be". And Enigma? I only heard of that band through Jojo's Bizarre Adventure (Araki has a killer taste in music). So, no shame.

Edit: Look up Sadeness/The Principles of Lust.

>Sadeness

That song was super popular and hard to avoid back in the day. It still "slaps" (as the young people say)

You can hear it during the massage scene in Charlie's Angels, when Alex renders Tim Curry unconscious.
