"Anam" is an album released in 1990 (US: 1992) by the Irish music group Clannad. "Harry's Game" is likely the most well-known song on the album for its multiple uses on television and in movies. "In A Lifetime" is a duet between Bono and Máire Brennan. This album continued a departure from the more traditional sound of their earlier albums. Also, it was one of the first to gain international attention, and current copies state that "Harry's Game" was in the film "Patriot Games". "Úirchill An Chreagáin" is of some interest for being an arrangement of an eighteenth-century song by poet Art MacCúmhaigh, and it is still sung in Armagh. It was re-issued in 2005 with the Lazyboy mix bonus track of "Rí Na Cruinne".

Clannad enlisted a proto version of "Rí Na Cruinne" for the 1990 'chain mail' world music project One World One Voice initiated by Kevin Godley and Rupert Hine. The piece makes the foundation for contributions from Peter Gabriel, Geoffrey Oryema, Chrissie Hynde, Mari Boine and Roger Ludvigsen.
