Here are some fragments from Dido's interview

Dido had planned everything so that she wouldn't have to suffer the consequences of fame: "I thought I'd be able to sell tons of records without anybody knowing who I was". However, she saw once at the beach someone browsing through the New Musical Express in whose cover a familiar face caught her attention: hers. Feeling a little awkward, she went to the newsstand and bought all the copies left to prevent them from being read.

"I can't remember a moment in my life when I wasn't full of things to do, as well as a sense of guilt that pushes me to do more and more."(...)

The panic attacks began after her last show with Faithless, in Dublin, 1995. Later on the attacks became constant.(...)

Next year Dido is going to record an album, them she is going on a world tour until 2003, and after that, she says, "I'll go on until I begin to feel that everything's wrong". Eventually she'd like to launch her own record company and write songs for hired artists. Some day, she'd like to have children and dogs. Right now, there're shows to give. It's 2 in the morning when we say goodbye in Madrid, while Dido gets on the bus to start another night journey before her performance in Barcelona. "Today this is my life, not something I do once in a while", she says, as a sudden realization. "I couldn't just turn back and leave, I've hired so many people. That's weird. But I feel this is the right life, I feel I'm not stuck in the wrong life".
