"Which track means the most to you?"

05/08/2009

Here are some more of Dido's answers to the questions you've been sending to askdido@didomusic.com...

I watched that Northern Skies live video in your website and you were playing guitar on it (I think it was the same one you played at the "live at the Brixton Academy" dvd). I loved the sound of the instrument (it's absolutely beautiful) and I'd like to know what kind of guitar was that, because I'm thinking of buying one for me.
Daniele
Dido replies: It’s a Gibson J200. I absolutely love it. It’s quite a big guitar but I just get lost in it and I write tons on it.

I'm curious about which track of yours is the most personal, or which track means the most to you?
Thomy from Hungary
Dido replies: Probably grafton street.

When writing songs at what time of the day are you most creative?
Emerson Smith
Dido replies: First thing in the morning or after a bottle of wine.

What do you feel and think when you hear other people singing your songs? Do they add anything different to the meaning of the original song?
Rob S
Dido replies: I love it. I get to hear the song in a whole new light. Here’s an example – a YouTube video of a guy with a beautiful voice doing a really lovely rendition of ‘Closer’. This made me so happy to hear. Enjoy!

Life For Rent

BeaconHillboy, 05/16/2009
it may sound trite,I just bought your Safe Trip Home.. First I love your voice,second all your tunes can be traced in my life.. but I digress I just wanted to thankyou that is all ,peace

Take my hand

carlalperzia, 05/16/2009
that song takes me to a very very safe place, it makes me think about my boyfriend and there is othersong that I love don´t live home it´s very hard to explain what I feel every time I listen to that song it reminds me of my mother, those hard moments that every relation ship has between mother and daughter, knowin´ that we´ll allways be there for the other person.

Safe Trip Home

loversgone, 05/17/2009
Dear Dido
you're SUCH an amazing singer,songwriter,person...
I was a fan since 2005 when I bought 'Life for Rent'. Your two first albums are beautiful but...Safe Trip Home is the most relaxing yet melancholic album I've ever heard. It's amazing. I've fallen in love with every song.It's amazing. A masterpiece!

I hope that your next album will be as mature, deep, emotional and beautiful as STH. Thank you for the journey.
(nooorthern skiiiies :)

Clint, 05/24/2009
Hey Dido...don't know who the young fellow is but agree its a fine rendition of "Closer" at times I almost hear a Neil Young sound in his voice but only at times, he needs to work on his microphone technique and maybe just a touch of reverb just to give a little depth, otherwise if I was a successful singer songwriter and people where making a serious attempt at my songs I'd know I'd be pretty happy about that too....

safe trip home!

leighton, 05/28/2009
oooooh,Dido!
I can't describe how amazing you are
and I really lost myself in your this new album!All the songs are wonderful!I can't wait to your next album!
Best wishes to you and I'm looking forward to meeting U!
Perhaps you can come CHINA and have a concert.It's the best thing!
Love DIDO!

SEE THE SUN.

colhug, 06/07/2009
My favourite track. I love it and so does your mum!

i love you Dido

khalill, 06/07/2009
i love you and i still love you untill i die
i love all your song specially
my lover 's gone
i have one wich in my life it's to see you and to tell you that

thank you for the song 'see the sun'

~Sanny~, 06/13/2009
Thank you for this beautiful song. When I felt sad because of the sickness of my brother (cancer) it always helped to listen to this song ('and I promise you you'll see the sun again'). Unfortunately after a lot of different threatments against cancer my brother died....one of the songs we played during the funeral was 'see the sun'. Thank you also for the latest cd, there are a lot of songs I like to listen when I'm in a sad mood, as if it describes my mood. I'm really looking forward to your next concert, you're one of the few artists of which the live songs are even better. ;-)

safe

k240, 07/10/2009
