I once listened to a song of hers eight or ten times in a row trying to
figure out the words. Then I gave up and dug out the liner notes, which were
written in a handwriting so crabbed it was illegible. So then I looked it
up online, to discover it's in Gaelic.

Haha, yes, she likes to do that.

She sings in a lot of pretty random languages.

English, Gaelic, and Latin IIRC. That's pretty much it.

Neither of those is random. Gaelic spoken at home, English at school,
and Latin in church. (at least I think that would be rather likely).
