It was an unlikely Eminem endorsement that turned the masses on to Dido’s wine bar pop in the early 2000s. Being unobjectionable turned out to be the most objectionable thing Dido could do. Smooth and slowly-unfurling, Still On My Mind is, in ways both good and bad, quintessential Dido. It’s mature, artfully assembled and Dido is a twinkling presence, always that bit more inscrutable than the average pop star. But those who have been holding a candle will find this an album glimmering with possibilities.
