A couple of Enya music videos have Stone circles in.
The video to "I want Tomorrow" has a circle which could be a genuine one at the beginning of the video but looks like a set at the end, while Stonehenge appears on her video "Evening Falls".

And Clannad did sing a song about Newgrange.
Newgrange
There is a place on the east
Mysterious ring, a magical ring of stones
The druids have lived there once they said,
Forgotten is the race that no-one knows.
Chorus:
Rum de rum rud a derimo
Rum de rum rud a derimo
The circled tomb of a different age
Secret lines carved on ancient stone.
Heroic kings laid down to rest
Forgotten is the race that no-one knows.
Wait for the sun on a winters day
And a beam of light shines across the floor.
Mysterious ring, a magical ring.
But forgotten is the race that no-one knows.

Stone Pages used to compile megalithic album covers but this one's not on their list

The mountains/grass/circle shapes definitely suggest Castlerigg

I'd go along with Castlerigg too; though IIRC the Brothers Gibb did have a Manx connection, too.
Cheers

Karl Miller writes with a rock/stone circle trivia question:
Bee Gees - ESP cover stone circle
Hi there, as you have a very comprehensive guide to megalithic sites, I wonder whether you came across the stone cirlce on the cover of the ESP album by the Bee Gees in 1987. They say the pictures were taken in Cumbria, so the only bigger site there would be Castlerigg. However, I remember these stones a bit smaller than on the album cover. Well, anyway, maybe you know more about it.
Thanks a lot, Karl

Anyone familiar with the cover and know which site was pictured?
