About this sound
Enya's gentle vocal phrase 'Who Can Say' from her 2000 album A Day Without Rain, often used as a calm, dreamy transition in videos, edits and montages.
This five-second clip captures Enya singing the title phrase of 'Who Can Say' in her signature layered, ethereal style, with soft harmonies floating over a gentle, shimmering arrangement. Her voice is calm, clear and slightly wistful, rising and falling without any sharp beat or sudden change, which makes the moment feel peaceful rather than dramatic.

It works as an emotional breather, slowing the pace and giving a scene a soft, reflective mood before the action or joke that follows.
