It’s June. Months after I got Enya‘s And Winter Came .I remember walking into the store in the first week of December.
“Sorry Sir we don’t have it” The sales person told me in an apologetic voice .Must be my shocked and outraged expression. No folks, I am not going to thrash your department store just because there is no latest album by Enya.
“Whhhaaaaaatttt? You don’t have it?One of the biggest selling artist in the world and you don’t have it?What’s going on with Warner.”Suddenly several people looked my way.I smiled back reassuring them that I am not going to go crazy.
The next week I was back.The same person pointed me to the shelf containing around 10 CDs. She looked so happy and relieved. And I was jumping up and down.Several people looked at my direction again. I smiled back.I asked her to play the whole album in full blast.As always I still play it though winter is over…and we will never have winters in the Philippines anyway.
