Theme from Harry's Game...

I believe this is on an Enya album. It's from a TV series in England. I've heard the song but never knew what album it came from. I checked CDnow.. but alas, I couldn't find it there. Does anyone know. I have a CD player now and I want that album. Any help would be appreciated.. BB Zorro

The theme from Harry's Game is by Clannad and is on their album Anam.

Hi, Zorro - I think the song is on Anam, by Clannad. I think Maire Brennan was the vocalist for Clannad on that album. If I'm correct, Maire is Enya's sister, and Enya used to be vocalist for Clannad. Let's see if this link will take you to a sound sample. It's a little confusing, because the All Music Guide lists both "Harry's Game" (from the movie "Patriot Games"), and also "Theme from Harry's Game." I think it's one and the same song.

hi,

It's definately on "Magical Ring", and basically any best of Clannad type of CD(eg "The Clannad collection"). Just checked "Anam" it's not on it (unless the US got a special version.)

Joe is right Maire Brennan did sing it.

Joe and the fair Alison are both correct. I am looking at the CD this moment.The title of the CD I am looking at is "Clannad, Past Present" put out by BMG. The Theme from Harry's Game is the first cut.

All the best,

Mick

Joe... the British TV series used "The Theme from Harry's Game" sure enough. I think I'm right in saying the piece from 'Patriot Games' was a different one, sung by Maggie Boyle. (Beautifully sung, too!)
