This is an amazing album. "Take You Home" and "Hell After This" are definitely my favourite songs.

Amazon messed my order up so I cancelled it and rushed out to buy a copy in person :lol:

 

Gonna give it a spin later-can’t wait!

This album is nothing short of beautiful. Gorgeous. She sounds so engaged with her music right now. Coupled with the fact she’s done so much promo and has been active on Twitter, it really feels like she’s enjoying having a music career, which I can’t say was true of the last couple of albums.

 

And then there’s this:

 

@1103968248557694976

#34 on Apple Music albums streaming.

 

Actually higher than I imagined :P

 

I loved that tweet when I seen that as well! Lovely to see her active on socials and so looking forward to her being on TV this weekend on two occasions.

 

 

I’m listening to it now and it’s a lovely listen so far, it’s so tranquil and perfect for morning listening.

 

Really loving Hell After This :wub:

Gosh was listening to Have to Stay and it's just made me well up, such a simple message but it relates so much to how I felt over the Winter and how much support Mr D* gave me :cry:

This album is truly sublime. It has certainly made the 6 year wait worth it.

 

I just love this woman completely.

I really like about half of this album... the rest is perfectly passable but not quite as good. It prompted me to look at her previous album as I ignored it at the time and there's some great tracks on there too - Blackbird, End of Night, Let Us Move On, Loveless Hearts all sounds really good on first run through!

It’s climbed to number 21 now on Apple Music Streaming in the UK from number 34 yesterday.

 

And some of the albums above are pre orders too!

 

Does Spotify have an album chart like Apple does?

Yasss 'Girl Who Got Away' is a lovely album. 'Day Before We Went to War' and 'Go Dreaming' were also highlights for me.

 

Not really convinced on the new album yet. 'Hell After This' is a highlight though.

She’s performing ‘Give You Up’ on Sunday Brunch today and it’s currently #26 on iTunes - acts that perform usually get a very decent boost from the show so expecting it to be Top 15 at least afterwards and I think the album will really benefit, I can imagine people that watch SB would be interested in Dido.

Just watched her interview on Sunday Brunch, she really is a lovely and down to Earth person. She seemed very natural considering she’s shunned the spotlight for over a decade. I loved how they commented on her doing more promo and her saying she was really enjoying it because it’s what I’ve been feeling throughout the whole campaign so far.

 

I really am in love with the album. There isn’t a track I dislike. Hurricanes, Hell After this and Take You Home are my favourites so far but Give You Up has also really grown on me.

on first listen Take me Home is the one track that Impressed me the most

I think "Take you home" should be single, they should focus on pushing it before the tour starts.

 

Hopefully she will tour Asia later this year, though I don't see it happening. :(

Listening again, the title track is also a masterpiece.

Heard the album several times, there isn't a track I don't like. You Don't Need a God was a bit underwhelming and Friends and Chances are a bit meh but that's ok.

 

Some Kind of Love is sublime. :wub:

Just watched the performance-she’s sounding so good live!

 

I wasn’t completely wowed with Give You Up on first listen but it really has grown so much, I love it now.

Sounds fantastic!

 

This is very good and cohesive album!

#3 on Mondays midweek update.

 

Foals and Sigrid are 1 and 2.

 

She’s 136 copies behind number two and 2,000 behind number one so relatively close.
