Dido Armstrong (born 25 December 1971) is a british BRIT Award-winning and Grammy Award-nominated singer and songwriter. Dido was born in London, UK on Christmas day; she was christened Dido Florian Cloud de Bounevialle O'Malley Armstrong. She lived with her poet mother and publisher father in London. One day she looked up the story of her first name. "I thought it was strange that I was called after a woman who killed herself in ancient literature. It's great for me now but there's no denying that I hated it. That was just another thing that made me stand out." |

Music: Sia: She's No Dido Date: 13 Oct 2009

As an artist who seems to draw comparison and critique regularly, I think our obsession with placing Sia Furler in some kind of musician's round hole has to do with the fact that she's an incomparable square peg.
