Dido(蒂朵)是英国四人超级电子乐队“Faithless(无信念乐队)”的客席女主唱。她从小就是个音乐神童,10岁时即精通钢琴、小提琴演奏。她 的青少年时光便是在偷听哥哥Rollo的唱片收藏,以及和学校里的古典乐团一起巡回全英演出中度过的。之后她在哥哥于1995年筹组的乐队 Faithless的首张专辑《Reverence》中初试啼声,演唱了畅销曲《Insomnia》。接下来的两年中,Dido和“无信念乐队”一起前往 数十个国家巡回演出,而每当Dido拖着疲惫却亢奋的身心回到伦敦时,她便会着手为自己的创作录制一些试听带。



Arista唱片在1997年初听到了这些试听带,并安排Dido在伦敦的Dorchester饭店与总裁克利夫戴维斯见面,这次的会面相当成 功,Dido很快展开了首张个人专辑《No Angel》的录制。该专辑在全球创下超过1200万张的销售量。Dido的第二张专辑就是2003年9月发行的《Life for Rent》,该专辑在全球狂卖850万张,在22国拿下冠军,成为英国年度销售冠军专辑。


在《Life for Rent》中,Dido说她也只是一个会彷徨迷惘、感觉生命漂泊不定的平凡人,但是她同时也告诉人们不要怕冒险尝试,要追寻自己想要的生活。Dido的歌声虽然依然飘渺,却远远地眷顾着你的喜怒哀乐及爱恨嗔痴。随着她的娓娓道来,许多生活中已经麻痹的感动也渐渐苏醒。



Dido: Life for Rent



I haven't ever really found a place that I call home



I never stick around quite long enough to make it



I apologize 1 that once again I'm not in love



But it's not as if I mind that your heart ain't exactly breaking



It's just a thought, only a thought



But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy



Well I deserve 2 nothing more than I get



Cos nothing I have is truly 3 mine



 



I've always thought that I would love to live by the sea



To travel the world alone and live my life more simply 4



I have no idea what's happened to that dream



Cos there's really nothing left here to stop me



It's just a thought, only a thought



But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy



Well I deserve nothing more than I get



Cos nothing I have is truly mine



But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy



Well I deserve nothing more than I get



Cos nothing I have is truly mine



 



While my heart is a shield 5 and I won't let it down



While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try



Well how can I say I'm alive



If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy



Well I deserve nothing more than I get



Cos nothing I have is truly mine



If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy



Well I deserve nothing more than I get



Cos nothing I have is truly mine



Cos nothing I have is truly mine



Cos nothing I have is truly mine



Cos nothing I have is truly mine







 从未有一个地方真正被我称之为家



因为我总是那么行色匆匆



再次抱歉我并不爱你



但我并不介意你没有为此心碎



因为这只是一个念头,仅仅是一个念头



如果我的人生不属于我自己,而我也无法拥有它



那么我并不值得拥有更多



因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我



 



我一直以为自己想要傍海而居



独自周游世界去过更简单的生活



我不知道这个梦想为何没能实现



因为其实并没有什么阻碍了我



其实这只是一个念头,仅仅是一个念头



如果我的人生不属于我自己,而我也无法拥有它



那么我并不值得拥有更多



因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我



如果我的人生不属于我自己,而我也无法拥有它



那么我并不值得拥有更多



因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我



 



当我把心灵当成盾牌而不愿卸下防备



当我如此恐惧失败以致于根本不去尝试



那我怎么能说我是活着的?



如果我的人生不属于我自己,而我也无法拥有它



那么我并不值得拥有更多



因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我



如果我的人生不属于我自己,而我也无法拥有它



那么我并不值得拥有更多



因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我



因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我



因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我



因为我所拥有的并没有什么真正属于我
