Thanks to Jon for this :)

Dido is now #11 in the UK charts. Also, here's some info about the UK
edition re-release of No Angel from click2music.co.uk


"Dido: 'No Angel' - UK edition
Due out on January 29th, the UK only version of Dido's debut album includes
new artwork and a CD-Rom enhancement...

Having sold fantastically in the United States, the original version of No
Angel was released quietly in this country at the end of last year.

With Eminem's 'Stan' single - which both featured and sampled Dido - doing
so well before Christmas, sales of No Angel in this country took off as
well.

Now, at the end of this month, a new version is being released. Along with
the new sleeve, the album has been enhanced to include the full length
videos to Here With Me and Thank You (unseen anywhere as yet!), plus a
gallery featuring pictures from a photoshoot which took place at the turn of
the year.

The full tracklisting for the album is:
Here With Me; Hunter; Don't Think Of Me; My Lover's Gone; All You Want;
Thank You; Honestly OK; Slide; Isobel; I'm No Angel; My Life; Take My Hand."

Thanks to Nikki for this :)

Just thought I'd let the Aussies know that Dido's album 'No Angel' has been
added to the playlist on Triple J, the National Youth Radio Network. It
will be available in stores from February. (Yay! No more ordering it from
Amazon.com!) Unknown what will be the first single released.

In the Thursday January 11 issue of The Dallas Morning News in the Arts Day
Section there was an article called Pop Go the Trends. At one partof the
article they mention DIdo. Here it is:

Unlikely Pairings
These score nearly as high as feuds in terms of generating press and
profits. In fact, many of those feuding also engage in unlikely pairings.
The top nod unquestionably goes to Fred Durst and Christina Aguilera,
"jamming" together at the MTV Video Music Awards. Other combos you never
thought you'd see: Eminem and Dido dueting on "Stan." Moby and Gwen Stefani,
on "South Side." David Allan Coe joining Kid Rock onstage at Texas Stadium.
Kenny Rogers guesting on Wyclef Jean album, The Ecleftic.

The Tortise and the Hare-and Dido

British singer Dido's debut album this week enters the top 10 of the Billboard
albums chart, where it sits at No. 9, marking one seriously belaboured
climb. The disk, No Angel , was released in the spring of 1999. Hopefully,
Dido made sure that Eminem got a platinum copy of the record, which has tpped
a million in sales. The angry rappers sampling of a Dido song, for his
noteworthy track Stan, put helium in Dido's hipness quotient.
