So Many Articles Based On Dido:

There are so many articles that I have read on the newspaper this month and believe it or not, they're all about Dido and A.R.Rahman. Here are a few articles that I have read so far:

Oscar-winning music composer A.R. Rahman has revealed that he's coming out with a music video. Speculation is rife that it's the visual representation of his recent collaboration with English sensation Dido which features in Danny Boyle's 127 Hours.
"Hey Guys, watch out for the world premiere of my new music video… coming soon," he tweeted.
Rahman also linked a picture with the comment, that shows him wearing a suede jacket near a helicopter, leaving his fans assuming that it is the video of the popular song If I Rise.

"...The Meditative One
American audiences saw a glimpse of A. R. Rahman's talents with Slumdog Millionaire's Jai Ho, a festive and rousing Bollywood number. Working with director Danny Boyle once more for 127 Hours, the Indian film composer, record producer, musician and singer was again called upon to create magic. Although his If I Rise, a collaboration with English pop artist Dido, strikes a more meditative tone this time. As a character on the verge of falling victim to the elements, James Franco's Aron Ralston summons a final burst of courage, turning recent memories of new acquaintances into dreams of better days to come. "Somebody was offering him something of a future," Rahman says. "That gave him hope and the energy to liberate himself." Light and ambient, If I Rise builds delicately, with Dido's soft voice lending an angelic presence. With layer upon layer of guitar, the song has a magical feel, as it's grounded in real instrumentation (but not exactly organic). Boyle, says Rahman, had one request.
"Danny said, ‘I want your voice too," says Rahman. "I initially wanted it to be just Dido, but the main character is a male voice. It's a very simple tune, very innocent, and very much from the heart."..."

That's all for now :)
