Enya's music has the capability of stirring my emotions. You're not into that type of music I guess. Either way Enya is soulful. If you don't believe so just listen to this.

Metallica's cover of BoC's Astronomy is pretty good:-

I never knew that! Garage Inc. was the album with the old Irish folk song "Whiskey in the Jar". There's more about these guys than you think, isn't there?

their cover of "Whiskey in the Jar" is terrible, they're following Thin Lizzy's template, not the olde folk ballad

Classic album from one of the great rock bands of their era.

BOC without doubt one of the most important of all American hard rock acts of the 1970s, their first three albums are legendary.

A lot of metal bands reference their influences and likes etc but Metallica seemed to have amazing taste regarding artists that inspired them and BOC was certainly one.

^^^If you look up the original version, almost everything is different. It's been covered by the Dubliners too, and slowly morphed into the metallica version. I doubt they've ever been to Ireland, TBH.
