    There are melancholic edges, but it's not haunting, it's comforting, reassuring music that's quietly powerful, music that Dido hinted at before but never quite made.

    Lucky, then she's so musically warm and, like its predecessors, Safe Trip Home takes comfort in a sound that almost masks her unrest. Almost. [Dec 2008, p.127]

    Dido should let her socks go unsorted for a while; genuine sorrow sounds good on her.

    Her best album yet, a definite rebound after the beautiful but somewhat slight Life For Rent. There isn't a lot of singles here, but that's not a bad thing. The songs creep into your skull and stay with you. You'll be humming them to yourself soon. Check out Don't Believe in Love, Grafton Street, It Comes and It Goes and Burnin Love.… Expand
