“Storms in Africa” is a song by the Irish singer Enya, featured on her 1988 album Watermark. The song was released as a single in the UK in June 1989 and reached #41. Originally sung in Gaelic on the Watermark album, the song was re-written with English lyrics and re-arranged to a faster tempo for its single release. For a time, a re-issue of the Watermark album included both versions although the original version has been featured on various collections rather than the English mix.
