Dido makes comeback with Greatest Hits album - singer chats to 3am about her new release

The 41-year-old singer chats to 3AM about the songs that mean the most to her

She is a personal diarist with mass appeal, like Bridget Jones with a microphone.

Dido burst onto the music scene in 1999 when she released No Angel and shot to fame in the US when her Thank You vocals were featured on Eminem's hit single Stan.

And now the singer, who won the MTV EMA award for best new act in 2001, is releasing her Greatest Hits album.

The 41-year-old singer ( who looks AT LEAST ten years younger than that in the flesh) told 3AM that she believes White Flag is her greatest hit - the song she's proudest of.

"What else can we expect from the album?" we asked her.

"There's new stuff, old stuff," she says.

"It was definitely a personal thing. A lot of people had a lot of opinions about what should go on there and I was like, 'Do you know what? It's my album.' I'm not listening to you."

The star made a comeback on stage with Eminem at Reading festival earlier this year and said it was the highlight of her summer.

We asked her if she had any plans to collaborate with anyone else.

"I think always. There's always things that you want to do."

"It's not like I've got a wishlist but things come up and you think, 'You know what, this would be perfect.'"

The singer also says she's in the middle of making a new record.

"I never put stuff out that I don't like," she explains.

"I'm just way more confident now and I know what my strengths are," she added.
