Regarding guesses about which people, not really besides Roma and whoever else haha
I also wouldn't be surprised if Nicky and Roma had an open relationship (still don't know which year they married)
Enya (and probably all her siblings) would agree with their father about the whole 'pride comes before a fall' idea (preferring to say 'I'm happy for you' rather than 'I'm proud of you' for somewhat superstitious reasons) interesting.
I usually skip over Leo's narration but he did have some nice observations.
Enya likes some of Madonna's songs and albums, but she also quite likes the Disney Frozen movie franchise.
She is still in awe at the beta version of Elsa
She really likes Fragile, even if Moopy (on the thread) find it terribly sad..! (It is, considering it's about Madonna's late brother I got the idea it was about a sibling before searching that up )
Enya also asks "Is Danceteria Madonna's Vogue II?"

Fragile is a masterpiece. So beautiful, so sad...it makes me cry every single time
Danceteria definitely has that iconic Vogue energy, but it feels way more personal. Naming her old NY crew instead of old Hollywood stars is a brilliant touch.
Enya was randomly reminded of the tiny mistake she made in Orinoco Flow (the album version) where she says 'let me' (as in let me sail) at the wrong time in the outro, possibly went like 'oh ' and they cut the audio, with the remnants of a whispered phrase.
I found Interesting fact โ Madonna used Erik Satie's melody "Gnossienne No. 1" in her song "Betrayal", and Erik Satie was born on May 17th, just like our dear Enya.
Enya loves the fact that she was a young person around the opening of two shopping centres in Ireland (local to her) that are still in existence: Artaine Castle (opened Autumn 1982) and Stephen's Green (opened Autumn 1988).
I didn't know Olive was divorced. Was this her first marriage? Maybe Olive will find someone for a relationship sometime soon...and maybe for her beloved sister as well.
Yes, that was her first and only known marriage. I also didn't know/realise she was divorced until Moya's funeral (Olive's children's names were mentioned but not her ex-husband, and she uses Brennan as her legal surname there too). Then again when I first noticed her in Enya-related pictures (at their father's funeral I think) I assumed that she was also single and childfree (not entirely true) but basically Enya's lesser-known twin
Enya is likely asleep, but if not she has woken up and checked the half-time scores out of curiosity. (She'd be supporting England obviously Irish but Enya's dad's parents and grandparents were born in England: )

Similar with my motherโs siblings (8 kids who also grew up near the sea in a country where civil war was going on) that most of them married late. They are all married now; just my auntie who lives in Scotland married late and doesn't have kids. (I have one really similar picture of her carrying me as a child, like Olive carrying Aisling before moving to Australia. I could draw so many parallels )
In Enya's family's case, I think Ciarรกn is the only other childless sibling. I think Eithneโs a lot more attentive to children though. โก

Paul (Pรณl) had the most children I think he was married at the time Enya was playing with Clannad. His kids have interesting names; a son called Ember.
Enya does have several nieces, nephews and Nicky and Roma's children and grandchildren to spoil though ๏ธ and so many (figurative) children around the world who've discovered and loved her music.
She is very sad to hear Bonnie Tyler has died (was in a coma for over a month before).
Two very different singing voices, but Enya found her very relatable: a Celtic lady from a big musical family, who loved children but didn't need to have them to prove it. Iconic in one's own right. โก

Enya has been singing with her brother Pรณl (the flute one) lately. The sisters were harmonising with part of this song called Eleanor Plunkett at Moya's funeral.
Enya only really knew Ann Widdecombe as that old Tory (didn't realise the move to Reform ) whom Anton du Beke had to drag around the floor on Strictly Come Dancing.
She is not expecting any gentleman (or indeed lady) callers, not now, not so late in the day.
And her castle is quite impregnable.
But you never know.
Also she remembers her mother, and her mother says:
What if you were run down by a bus?
And they took you to the hospital?
And the doctors had to cut off your clothes to treat your injuries?
And when they did, they found an UNKEMPT GEE?
What then, my girl, my sweet child, what then?
Sometimes the days are long, sometimes the days are slow, but the Ronco deepilator has served her well.
Enya definitely noticed the 43-year age gap between Kathy Griffin (same age as her) and the new boyfriend (younger than disneyteletubby). She is taken aback and rather amused, to say the least.
