Macalla is a 1985 musical album by the Irish folk group Clannad. It is their ninth album and is known for the duet between Clannad's singer Moya Brennan and U2 vocalist Bono on the single "In a Lifetime".
It's the specific, distinctive, diagnostic sound of 1980s Clannad, that's the only possible definition. And this sound is unique, even when the music tends to something poppy. Macalla is an album of amazing integrity and expressiveness, all the tracks demonstrate the artists' blameless taste.
In 1985, Clannad released their next album, Macalla (Echo), which was recorded in Switzerland, England and Ireland. Apart from one traditional song the album contained all original material, and yielded a hit single, "In a Lifetime", a duet with U2 singer Bono, which began with Máire teaching Irish to Bono during the introduction.
