Everyone prepare to cringe....
Ready...
Ebudae by Enya...
But only when accompanied by the episode of Northern Exposure in which I first heard it (a too-soon-gone quirky show about life in a small Alaska town where one of the highlights of each year was the mass streak by all the male residents of the town and surrounding area).
Ed, the local DJ, spent the whole episode running around town stealing every light source and extension cord he could find - christmas lights, chinese lanterns, barber pole, etc. Exactly at the winter solstice, he gathered the whole town and threw the switch illuminating a large area of town filled with all his acquired items. As he did, that song began playing and it was a fantastic puncuation to the thought of bringing lightness to the dark and bringing feuding friends back together.
The next day, I called the local TV station and said "On last nights Northern Exposure..." and got that far when the operator said "Ebudae by Enya". The switchboard had been flooded with calls asking the same question. B)

"Think deeply, speak gently, love much, laugh loudly, give freely, be kind."
