It totally does.
The happy, colorful mood, the African rhythm, the sunny, spacious, ambience; Strawberry Swing has all of the good qualities of Enya's music and none of the drag or over-repetition that sometimes taints it.
Comment, agree, disagree, flame. Begin.
No, the U2-Lemon connection Locust is talking about is with the lyrics, not the mirrorball lemon or the color of the dress.
Lemon, from Zooropa, has these lyrics:
A man builds a city
With banks and cathedrals
A man melts the sand so he can
See the world outside
Also, Playboy Mansion on U2's next album, Pop, has these:
I never bought a Lotto ticket
I never parked in anyone's space
The banks feel like cathedrals
I guess casinos took their place
The lyrics in Violet Hill (when the banks became cathedrals) is apparently an intentional reference to those songs.
