"What do you feel when you are onstage?"
01/08/2009
Here are some more answers from Dido to the questions you've been sending to askdido@didomusic.com.
What made you work with Jon Brion? What record(s) made you aware of just how great the man is?
Tom of UpandRunningRecording
Dido replies: I met Jon at Abbey Road one day and the thing that struck me the most was meeting someone who shared my obsession and joy with music and details and stories and sounds and just approaches it with total love and excitement and newness every day. He really is the most wonderful person to work with. He brings out the best in everyone and I definitely feel like he did with me. Truly inspiring and a great great experience.
Probably one of my favourite Jon records is the Eternal Sunshine soundtrack. But there's so much of what he does that I absolutely love. The Fiona Apple records too. What about you?
I love the black nails and the high-heeled ankle boots in your new video. Are they Louboutins?
George (21), Vienna, Austria
Dido replies: Yes they are! Well spotted. :-)
What are your favorite shows on the TV?
Igor Ramos, from Portugal
Dido replies: The Shield, The Sopranos, The Wire, Six Feet Under. All brilliant!
I would like know, what do you feel when you are onstage?
Florencia, Uruguay
Dido replies: There's so many things I can feel on stage. Before I go on stage I am always nervous. I can't help it. Then once I open my mouth and start singing/playing I feel calm. And when I see how lucky I am with how great the audience always is, I just get a huge rush of warmth and peace and excitement. I'm doing what I love and just love every minute. I love playing live for the accidents that happen, the sounds and dynamics that are created between the players that will never happen again, just because of the circumstance, the room, the audience, everything. Every night feels different and every night is different!

Omg, Six Feet Under is my fave series ever! I started watching it like 2 weeks ago for the fourth time, just finished the last episode an hour ago or so. And now I saw Dido's answer, what a coincidence. :-) |

Quiet Timescharles, 01/12/2009
I was trying to find all criticisms on the opus. One was:"Oh my God, she's everywhere.' But if you take a listen to the songs, she's just a really good songwriter."I was travelling outside France. I was listening songs from the new album and the previous albums on the radio. There is no day without hearing your marvellous voice. To se you singing, to hear you to read your comments are a real happiness. I realize that the next single will be "Quiet Times"... Very best wishes, Dx.! Cx. |

Dear Dido:)marina_m, 01/22/2009
Have you ever been to Russia?and are you planning to visit us soon?)there are so many people here who are looking forward to hear you singing live in Moscow...of course I am one of them...Sure, you've been reading and hearing people all over the world saying how much they love you and your voice, your poetry and music).And here I am to repeat the same and add -thank you for you're being so much sincere with us in your every song and word. I am fond of British culture and history and just of British spirit.no doubt, you are a very special part of it.I am sure that very soon I'll come to visit the UK for my first time and then I'll need nothing but your music with me.Yours, Marina |
Bring back that live "vibe" of yours!Ran-Mar, 01/27/2009
Dido:I've been a fan of yours ever since "Life for Rent" was released.Just recently,I saw your "Live at Brixton Academy" DVD.Being that I have never seen you in a live performance before,I was overwhelmed by your delivery and prescence of all the songs performed.You are a class act...bar none! The song "see the sun" gave me those tingles up and down the spine feeling...something only a few select Artist's (such as yourself) can do.What a motivational song that is! It's almost like receiving a bracing hug of reassurance! I hope that you will return to the stage...soon! I think that in these troubled times...we could all use that emotional bracer! Peace and love to you all! |
