Loreena McKennitt: Difference between revisions

* [[Christmas Songs]]: ''To Drive the Cold Winter Away'', ''A Winter Garden'', and ''A Midwinter Night's Dream'' all have a number of such songs. Three of the five on ''A Winter Garden'' are traditional carols ("Coventry Carol", "Good King Wenceslas", and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen"), but the entirety of ''A Midwinter Night's Dream'' is Christmas music, not merely winter-themed.

* [[Composite Character]]: Although nothing in the song suggests it, the music video for "Bonny Swans" strongly implies that the harper who brings the youngest daughter as a harp to her father's hall is also the true love for whom her oldest sister drowned her; the actor and costume for both is the same. This does add a rather powerful resonance to the song's denouement, however.

* [[Everything's Louder with Bagpipes]]: Justified, since she ''is'' a Celtic-inspired musician.

* [[Evil-Detecting Dog]]: Suggested by her rendition of Yeats' "Stolen Child", which begins and ends with a chorus of barking hunting dogs that have detected the poem's sinister faerie child thieves.
