RS and Billboard Dido Articles
| ||
Thanks to Tina for both articles :) Rolling Stone No Angel came out quietly over a year ago, and it wasn't until recently that Dido saw her profile increase. Though the WB teen alien drama Roswell selected her "Here With Me" as its theme song, her album barely made a dent on the charts until Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP -- which samples her song "Thank You" on "Stan" -- came out this summer. Billboard Here's a snippet from this article.. Dido's Revival More than a year after its release, the debut album from British singer Dido, "No Angel" (Arista), is getting a second wind. Insiders say that a sudden boost in sales has been propelled by radio airplay for first single "Here With Me" (also the theme to the WB science fiction TV series "Roswell"), constant touring, and the fact that the next single, "Thank You," is prominently sampled on the Eminem song "Stan." Released June 1, 1999, "No Angel" entered Billboard's Heatseekers chart at No. 50 in the July 24, 1999, issue. After spending months on the chart, the album reached No. 1 in this year's Aug. 5 issue. The album is No. 92 on the latest chart. |
