"Looking back, I think that's why I did music. I'd get home from school and the house would be so qui..." — Dido Armstrong

I spent a lot of my childhood in my own head, making up stories. I didn't have a lot of outside influences, so I was able to make my own decisions about what I wanted to do.

I write about the things I feel strongly about.

I'm too much of a control freak.

Life for rent means that my life isn't really my own, I only rented it for a while, but if I don't manage to buy it, to own it, then nothing of what I think is mine is really mine.
