Armstrong (born 25 December 1971), known professionally as Dido(/ˈdaɪdoʊ/DY-doh),
is an English singer and songwriter. She attained international success with
her debut álbum No Angel(1999). Hit singles from the album
include "Here with Me" and "Thank You". It sold
over 21 million copies worldwide, and won her several awards, including two Brit Awards: Best British Female and Best British Album, and the
MTV Europe
Music Award for Best New Act. The first verse of
"Thank You" is sampled in "Stan",
a collaboration with American rapper Eminem.
Her next album, Life for Rent(2003),
continued her success with the hit singles "White Flag"
and "Life for Rent".
In 2004, Dido performed with other British and Irish artists in the Band Aid 20 version
of the charity single "Do They Know
It's Christmas?".
Dido's first two albums are among the best-selling albums in UK chart history, and both are in the top 10 best-selling albums of the 2000s in the UK.
Her third studio album, Safe Trip Home(2008),
received critical acclaim but failed to duplicate the commercial success of her
previous efforts. She was nominated for na Academy Award for the song "If I Rise".
Dido was ranked Nº 98 on the Billboard chart of the top Billboard 200 artists of the 2000s(2000–2009) based on the success of her albums
in the first decade of the 21st century.
Dido made a comeback in 2013, releasing her
fourth studio álbum Girl Who Got Away, which
reached the top 5 in the UK. Having taken time out of the music industry to
raise her son, she reappeared on stage at the 2013 Reading and
Leeds festival where she reunited with Eminem. Dido
released her fifth studio album, Still on My Mind,
on 8 March 2019 and embarked on her first tour in 15 years in support of the
new album.
In May 2019, Dido received the Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Song Collection from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers, and
Authors.
Life for Rent is the second studio album by
English singer Dido,
released by Arista Records on 29 September 2003. The album was produced by Rollo Armstrong and American songwriter Rick Nowels.
Work on the album began in mid-2002. It was certified 9×Platinum by the BPI,
and sold over 12 million copies worldwide, making it the fourth best-selling
album worldwide of 2003. The album became the seventh best-selling album of the 2000s in
the UK, making Dido the only singer to have two
albums in the Top 10 list.
As of 2015 Life for Rent is the 34th
best-selling album in UK chart history. In 2019 it was listed the 15th best-selling album of the 21st century in the UK.
I'm coming round to
open the blinds
You can't hide here any longer
My god you need to rinse those puffy eyes
You can't lie still any longer
And yes they'll ask where you've been
And you'll have to tell them, again and again
And you probably
don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
But I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Come on take my hand
We're going for a walk, I know you can
You can wear anything, as long as it's not black
Please don't mourn forever, she's not coming back
And yes they'll ask where you've been
And you'll have to tell them again and again
And you probably
don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
But I promise you you'll see the sun again
Abd you're asking me why pain's the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
Do you remember
telling me you'd found the sweetest thing of all
You said that one day of this was worth dying for
So be thankful you kew her at all
But it's no more
And you probably
don't want to hear tomorrow's another day
But I promise you you'll see the sun again
And you're asking me why pains the only way to happiness
And I promise you you'll see the sun again
And I promise you you'll see the sun again.
