If you have not heard the splendor that is Enya ever in your life, then you are not living. You probably find no joy in the smile of a laughing baby. Sure you look at tiny puppies but do you see them? Should read the following post devoted to the Queen of the Foggiest of Moors, your life will be changed. Get ready to see the world with brand new eyes.

When I was a tiny boy, a freshmen at the University of Life, I was busy dreaming of riding on the backs of unicorns as my radio, complete with tape deck, blared Enya’s 1991 release of Shepherd Moons. Enya’s music, often sung in Ye Olde Tongue of Gaelic. Enya has released 8 studio albums and is currently holding the number two spot behind U2 in Ireland’s musical export department. She is currently the biggest solo act coming out of said country.

Her voice is beyond compare. In all the land, there is none so fair as she. There have been those that have set out on quests to win her heart, only to be smote by their own inability to meet her standards of chivalry.

Allow me to share with you a song entitled Smaointe from Shepherd Moons -

You must watch this video. The images basically sum up what it was like to be inside of my head at the tender young age of 11. Distant lands? Check. Wood nymphs? Check. Adventure? Check. Castles? Check. Horses? Check. Bascially, my entire backyard became a haunted moor. I battled mystical beasts (my cats mostly) and tried to lull them to a slumber as I called the winds with my penny whistle. Yes, I had my father buy me one.

Yes, Enya has many more works but they are not as magical as this. Listen to it and gaze out of your window on a rainy day. You will feel yourself transported to some strange land where it is ok to have nudity in butter commercials. Enya truly is magical.

The English language is not adequate when describing the level of rock-osity that is the Foo Fighters. To understand what this band is, think of the most rock-a-nating thing you have ever heard of, multiply it times infinity, and then make sure it shreds you a new consciousness. I have just described their first record to you, so uh, yeah, they have 6. Time to play catch up in today’s Daily Music Dose.

The official music video for ‘Starstrukk’ featuring Katy Perry premieres October 26th on MTV. Watch this video and get pumped up! Also, if you have yet to see the photos from the set, check them out here.

Cobra Starship’s “Hot Mess” video is set to premiere on 11/8 during the MTV premiere of the new show “Styl’d”. Go through this gallery and get pumped for the video premiere!

Katy Perry was spotted at the Louis Vuitton Pret a Porter show… what do you think of what she was wearing? Elegant and polished? Or too 1980′s prom?

In an experiment benefitting eccentricity and pop-awesomeness, American Idol runner-up (like winning even matters anymore) is working with Lady Gaga on his debut album.

According to MTV news, tentative titles on For Your Entertainment (out November 23rd) are:

“Suburban Decay,”

“Music Again”

“Winners,”

“What Do You Want From Me” 

“Loaded Smile”

“Strut”

Both Gaga’s producer and the powerhouse behind Paramore’s brand new eyes, Rob Cavallo, have had a hand in the polishing of this major label release.

Whaddya think about this? Think Gaga will add a necessary contagion to the album? Is Lambert too far outside your genre preferences to even give the CD a chance?

The Young Veins are streaming a second song on SupJustin.com. What do you think of it? Too Beatles-esque, or still stoked for the whole album? (Which is slated for an early 2010 release)
