Hi folks. Here are some more of Dido's answers to the questions you've been sending to askdido@didomusic.com (keep 'em coming!).
Hi Dido. Do you like dogs? What's your favourite breed? And have you got any pets?
Macarena de la Argentina.
Dido replies: Yes I do. I love them and would love to have them if I stop travelling for long enough! I'd have a golden retriever or a labrador.
Hello Dido. When I listen to your first 2 albums, there are a lot electronic bits in it. I always loved that. But with the Safe Trip Home album, you have left those electronic bits out. Or at least, a lot less than normally. What made you decide to change the style of the 3rd album? Or did it just go that way?
Keep making great music!
Daniel Heijl, From the Netherlands
Dido replies: I intentionally didn't use any electronics on the 3rd album. It was a challenge that started as a small thought and then turned into a big theme of the record. We had a lot of fun creating sounds from all manner of instruments (bells, wind instruments, strings, brass, pots, pans, cans, sandpaper, anything). This was instead of using anything pre-programmed. It was a great learning experience for me and also made me a much better musician pretty quickly! It's also making me really appreciate the joy of electronics again on this new album I'm making. It's good to take a break and now I'm celebrating my electronic roots again. :-)
Hi Dido, The internet is telling me that your first two albums are pop music, and Safe Trip Home is folk. Do you think they got it right? How do you describe your music?
Cheers,
Tom
Dido replies: I leave the descriptions to other people!

Dido - Now we can except something BIG!AL4R_Dido, 西元2009年07月17日
Hey! Now i'm really excited about your comeback. Safe Trip Home is amazing, but the eletronic sounds are the soul of Dido's songs.I'm very happy about this and i really believe that Dido can do much more that she already done ir her carrer. I love my dogs too, i had 3, but last week one of then died... So sad, and only the owner knows how it hurts. :( And i love your songs. Pop, folk or hip hop (lol). |

dear Dido...bitterman, 西元2009年07月17日
hi, sorry for my english (is not my native languaje)...how are u? I love ur music, i have ur 3 albums and the DVD... I love the songs My Life, Take My Hand, Sand In My Shoes and Northern Skies... when i heard the last album i didnt like it a lot like the other 2 ones. i have the same impression with goldfrapps last album... but i apreciate when the artists change and try different things. I hate the way of think "that formula always sells so we can use it always" (a lot of artists do that)... Listening again i can appreciate more the album, in fact, Dont Believe In Love, is now one of my favorites... I really like the electronic of the 2 first albums. If u back to that or something like that, will be amazing... but if not, i dont care because i love one thing... your voice... greetings from Chile pd: Theres a chance of see you singing something with Melanie C?... i really love her too. |

Dogs and lawNuclearbigwill, 西元2009年07月17日
Retrievers and Labradors, good taste methinks!...and leaving descriptions to other people... methinks the lawyer in you has surfaced! "No man shall be the judge in his own cause" and all that... I think your use of the Barleycorn folk was an enlightened move too, even if the NI exec. thought otherwise. |

Hi Dido! I totally sense the joy and passion with which you and your team worked on Safe Trip Home...I didn't really miss the electronics....The album is truly heart-warming as it is. |

hidarshil, 西元2009年07月17日
It's nice that Safe trip home does not have any electronice bits..i think it is much better..otherwise it would nt be so heart warming n emotional... |
|

I think tis goodRunrigFan, 西元2009年07月18日
I think STH, not having electronic bits is a good idea because a artist needs you grow in music and style. Sometimes it's nice hearing a artist, try different things. I love Runrig, whom started as a celtic band with their first album. and each album has progressed to include rock/celtic. mainstream. Electronic on one album. Then their new album rocky and mellow. I think a artist has to expand their musical styles to pull in new fans. |

Its great music regardlessTris, 西元2009年07月24日
Hi I've been a fan for a while now, and just wanted to say its nice hearing your music and amazing voice regardless. I also love all the acoustic stuff you do, I think its really nice hearing your songs stripped back to basics, I really hope you release an acoustic album. But why does no one ever mention your first album Odds and Ends? As it was also a good album and should have had a proper release. Keep making great music! |
