This is a typical Dido's album, lovely voice, quiet songs, it's romantic pop! I decided to buy it because i desire my personal collection to be complete, and this is a very important CD :) Worthy to buy :))) Greetings from Italy

  Chill with a glass of wine and this CD
Review created: 05/08/06
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

I love this CD when I've got the kids to bed - picked up the carnage off the lounge floor - and opened a bottle of wine. Perfect to wind down with. The very first song is White Flag, and if you've got your speakers placed well, and a half decent CD player, this songs introduction makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, its pretty damn good! Try it!

  DIDO ALBUM REVIEW
Review created: 06/07/06

I decided to buy this album, because i'd been after it for a while, it was on my favourites a while back and thought it would bring back some memories.
I used this seller because, the bidding started low, but not only that the postage was a fairly decent price. I get annoyed when the postage is more than the item is actually worth. I love the album completely, i dont have any dislikes about it. even the scratch on the front of the case didn't bother me, because the seller was open, honest and very fast. I did have a problem with the delivery at first because ebay had the wrong address for me even thou i had changed this, luckily im still local to previous house and was able to collect it.Packaging was very good, which is always a luxurie. I', 100% satisfied with this product and would definatley use this seller again.
Unlike some experiences I have had with other sellers which put me off must admit, bt this seller brought back my custom.

I bought this as a present for my g/f, I certainly wouldn't have considered myself a fan, I'm generally into much heavier music. But wow, what a CD, for so many reasons.

This is the best production quality on a CD I've ever come across. But don't think that means over-polished sounding mass produced. This is close mic'ed, in you face, down-tempo, with lush orchestration. Very varied too; but every track a winner in its own right. Unlike 90% of current albums, every track is of the quality of the released singles. Dido writes from the heart and the lyrics are multi-layered and really deep.

If I had to spend £500 to get this CD, I'd spend it!

Review created: 14/06/09

Another fantastic offering from Dido. Every song is an absolute masterpiece and so many people can directly relate to the lyrics. She uses so much emotion in her singing and keeps it simple, not using the vocal acrobatics that so many artists rely on!

  Dido - Life For Rent
Review created: 16/05/09

Despite its somewhat polite, trip-hoppy surface, Dido Armstrong’s music frequently rests on a melancholy that can only be called courageous in the current pop world. Few singer-songwriters with 12 million record sales behind them would offer a single such as Life for Rent’s "White Flag," which is in part an apology for the "mess and destruction" the narrator has left with her lover. Emotions are even stickier on other tracks, with Dido’s Dusty-ish voice coolly sweeping through "Don’t Leave Home," one of the creepiest codependent-love songs since "Every Breath You Take," and in "Who Makes You Feel," ticking off a list of reasons why an affair is dying, while also admitting that she still loves the guy. It’s a hard-won romanticism, too, that pokes its head up in the tough-minded "This Land is Mine" and "Do You Have a Little Time" ("I’d like to hold you still/Remind you of all you’ve missed"). A knotty and rewarding album.

Possibly not as good as her first album, No Angel. However, if you are a Dido fan, you will probably buy it anyway.

If you are faced with a choice between No Angel and this one, buy No Angel.

Don't be put off by this review, though: it's just my opinion.

Its what you'd expect from Dido, not as good as 'No Angel' but worth buying if your a fan. Still some good songs, and a great voice.

Voice of an angel with the looks to go with it.
This is arguably Dido's best work and all the songs on this album sung live proved to be a real treat.
The lyrics are right from the heart and you feel at one with Dido as you listen to her.
If you like Dido, you've already got this album but if you haven't or you aren't sure, buy this album, you won't regret it.
