Negative Positive
Title: A long wait ...
Review: Dido's impressive debut album "No Angel" was released in 2000. And Dido enjoyed the wave of success the album received ie. it gained more interest in 2001 and 2002. Over three years later, Dido releases a long awaited follow-up "Life for Rent". My first thought was "Why such a short tracklist after keeping fans waiting so long?".The first listen of "Life for Rent" left me thinking "this is a bit dull". But the second listen, the album began to take shape. The actual single "White Flag" becomes the least interesting track which is amazing in itself - perhaps it has suffered from radio overkill?Despite the many negative reviews of this album, I urge all Dido fans to buy the album and give it a chance. Upon second and third listen, all the tracks start to take shape. Just a pity we only get 11 tracks. I consider that after three years of waiting, fans deserve a few more.
Is the review positive or negative?
