I put Dido’s latest CD, Safe Trip Home on my next mp3 CD for the car, (hey Safe Trip Home is a good omen right?) listened about half way through and bought it. Well, it wasn’t that impressive; I was just going to buy it anyways!
I downloaded an early single, Look No Further, from Dido’s website in the summer. I like it, it uses horns and orchestration – I guess that’s the next big thing; they were prominent in Coldplay’s Viva La Vida too. Her albums have been getting progressively better and this is the best so far; although you have to like Dido to really get into it. The songs are slow, and a lot of the tracks have no or sparse drums.
Don’t Believe in Love is also pretty good:
