"Orinoco Flow (Sail Away)" singer

ENYA

This Irish artist’s ethereal 1988 hit blends Celtic influences with a soaring chorus about sailing to distant lands like the "moonlight on the river."

This clue refers to the hit 1988 song "Orinoco Flow (Sail Away)" by the Irish singer and musician Enya. The title is often shortened to just "Orinoco Flow," but the parenthetical "(Sail Away)" helps confirm it’s her song, as those lyrics appear in the chorus. Enya’s distinctive ethereal voice and New Age style made this track one of her most famous, so the clue directly points to her name as the answer. No wordplay here—just a straightforward music reference.
