A Box Of Dreams is a limited edition 3-disc box set by Irish singer, songwriter and musician Enya, released on December 1, 1997 by WEA Records. The set was a companion release to her first compilation album, Paint The Sky With Stars – The Best Of Enya, released the previous month. A Box Of Dreams contains 46 tracks from her 1987 debut album Enya to Paint The Sky With Stars across three discs, each thematically arranged: Oceans contains Enya's upbeat tracks, Clouds is a collection of her piano instrumentals, and Stars contains slow ballads and more atmospheric tracks. Four B-sides are included: "Oriel Window", "Morning Glory", "Willows on the Water" and "Eclipse". The calligraphy and design were done by Brody Neuenschwander. In June 2023, it was reissued on 6 vinyl LPs, in an eco-friendly box set using 100% recycled board and vinyl, arranged thematically across three double-vinyl records: Oceans, Clouds and Stars.[1]
