"Most of the time I'm in a room with no windows when I write"
2010-01-05
Hello Dido, did you have a good Christmas?
Hi there, happy new year to everyone! I had a great Christmas with my family. Very relaxing. A lot of snow, a lot of cake. All good.
You said in the last interview that you've been working in the countryside - do you think the surroundings of a studio can have an impact on the sounds you make in it?
Well there's a few sound effects that I could maybe do without. A lot of birds and cows and low flying air force planes... I'm not sure whether it has an effect or not. So much of what I write and produce is so internal that often it doesn't matter where I am. Most of the time I'm in a room with no windows when I write anyway. I do find it inspiring to go for an amazing walk in the country every morning though before we start work though. Makes me feel really lucky to be alive.
When you're writing new songs, do you listen back to your first three albums for inspiration?
Not very often. I do listen to them for fun occasionally, sometimes when I'm driving as they all bring back such amazing memories. Each record was borne out of such a specific era of my life, it's great to take myself back there.
What do you tend to eat and/or drink during an average day's recording?
Cereal. It's easy and quick and if I'm really focused on something I don't want to bother cooking anything. I could eat breakfast for every meal quite happily.
Who makes the best tea, you or Rollo?
Definitely me. :-) I think he might even agree.

Some questions...fromPortugal, 2010-01-06
Hi!First of all, let me just thank you for giving us such good music, full of emotions and dedication! I can not fully describe how much pleasure is to listen to your music! I am truly thankful! Now, the questions: How do you fell when you're on stage? What goes on your mind when you're singing? When will you come back to Portugal? Ps: I never had the chance to attend to one of your live performances, but I'm hoping to get that soon! I'll be waiting for you to come the Oporto House of Music (casa da música), or even at the Atlantic Pavilion in Lisbon! By best wishes, Eugénio Costa, from Portugal |

I'm not great at leaving it behind properly if I'm in a proper studio situation and I've always got songs and ideas going round in my head at all times. It's how I see the world around me I suppose. But I have good periods of time when I don't think too much about it as there's so many other things I like doing or learning about and people I want to see. I also get my best ideas when I just forget about it all for a minute and let my brain relax! Corporate Gifts Corporate Gifts acne treatments |

When you visit any casino, one of the first things that you will notice is the huge number of slot machines. These games which at first were just a way to win some chewing gum, has now become a way to earn a lot of money. |

Thanks a Lotmiminsurasmin, 2010-08-18
You may have not intended to do so, but I think you have managed to express the state of mind that a lot of people are in. The sense of wanting to help, but not knowing how or where, is something a lot of us are going through. 2011 audi a4 changes|droid x mobileme|Audi Service Manual|sony ericsson c902 nck code |
