My wife died right in my arms from breast cancer last October which still haunts me today. In Memory of Stella 1988-2021 it really gets to me being here without her I always wake up wishing she was here but lord knows she'll be waiting for me at the pearly gates in the bright blue sky!
@joshua leggans your welcome you may be remarried good for you but she's not forgotten and though I never met you or her guess she'd want you too be happy.
2024? Dido was brilliant back in the early 00s, one of the most underrated singers of all time. Her duet with Eminem was amazing and she did so many good solo songs as well. I can't believe this song came out over 20 years ago simpler times back then before the internet became huge.
I was thinking about suicide and one night I heard this song on the radio. It was magical... A few years have passed and I'm still alive, I'm still here and doing better. It's magical to hear a song like this in this hardest moment. Thank you DIDO!
You are truly special. I can understand how it feels like that. Life gets hard for me too. My mother passed away when I was 6, and I've gotten so close to my father, and this song makes me feel better when I'm feeling down. Best wishes 🙂 -Giovanni Norero, manager of GLC Parakeets UA-cam.
When my dad passed in 2005 I would get in my car at night and get on the interstate and drive while playing this song on repeat, trying to holding back tears that blinded my vision at times. I can't explain the feeling but this song and the starry night made me feel in a way calm at peace and okay at such a hard time in my life.
i agree, the LPs from adele are weak, 2-3-4 god songs, the rest rubbish, dido is special,dido isnt narcisstic,ike other superstars, shes so beautiful, i dont wanna know,how many guys in her life had flirt and more....,some girl are going mad,insane in the membrane :),but dido not, and we can see, this superstar-red carpet bulloshit,its not important to her,and i like it really,but i miss her songs,soft,sensitive,with message,pure! great
i swear,her songs are the best for a roadtrip in your car,if you're even going down the highway, especially in a place with a landscape to look at or somewhere quiet, dido is the best you can listen to
I miss Dido. Such a talented singer with beautiful singers, I don't remember any other artist giving me that feeling of content, nsotalgia and happiness, even when I heard her 'sad' songs.
Que hermosa epoca de nuestra juventud, recuerdo ver este video y transportarme a ese lugar como si estuviera ahi, disfrutando de la naturaleza y esa tranquilidad que da la voz de Dido y hasta la fecha disfruto la paz de estar entre los arboles, el mar, el cielo y el campo. Dido sera eterna,
Her music is dangerous, her voice is soo sweet and calm. Her message is the danger. Her words can strike you right dead centre in the heart. She truly is the soft voiced queen of heartbreak
Like a ghost don't need a key, Your best friend I've come to be Please don't think of getting up for me You don't even need to speak When I've been here for just one day You already miss me if I go away So close the blinds and shut the door You won't need other friends anymore Oh, don't leave home Oh, don't leave home If you're cold, I'll keep you warm If you're alone, just hold on 'Cause I will be your safety Oh, don't leave home I arrived when you were weak I'll make you weaker like a child Now all your love you give to me When your heart is all I'll need Oh, don't leave home Oh, don't leave home If you're cold, I'll keep you warm If you're alone, just hold on 'Cause I will be your safety Oh, don't leave home Oh how quiet, quiet the world can be When it's just you and little me Everything is clear and everything is new So you won't be leaving will you? If you're cold, I'll keep you warm If you're alone, just hold on 'Cause I will be your safety Oh, don't leave home 'Cause I will be your safety, I will be your safety, I will be your safety, Ohh Don't leave home.
This is the addictive drug singing to the addict. "Like a ghost don't need a key" "Your best friend I've come to be". I am a retired cop and saw many a person suffer and some die from overdoses, wrecked families trying to save an addicted family member. It visited my home and took my 22 yr old stepson in 1999 after an eight year war. He is better off dead than imprisoned or addicted. His sister is now 47 and a long time addict and will eventually die from "it".My wife and I took her 4 yr old son away from her and have custody and him at age 17 now. If anyone ever tries to start him on drugs they will suddenly disappear. Thanks for the beautiful song Dido. It has meaning to me.
I have always loved this song. I know it's about drug addiction, but when I listen to this song I think of anxiety and depression, and how the symptoms speaks to me.. Sometimes you just isolate yourself from the world because of it... it won't let you improve your life, just bring you down
@@chopra59562 yeah it's the most beautiful song ever written from the perspective of the drugs destroying a person's life "When I've been here for just one day You'll already miss me if I go away So close the blinds and shut the door You won't need other friends anymore" "And I arrived when you were weak I'll make you weaker, like a child"
This is one of my favorite Dido songs, although it's a sad song and sort of depressive, it's beautiful, I found out that Dido lost her Dad when she was very young, I assume that's why most of her songs are sorta melancholic and sad, but I like her!!!
Same here IT's 2019 and still listening. I remember when the music video cameo out in 2003, much music was spending IT all the time in TV. What great times.
When I was a little boy I did the washing up every day for years and listened to music while doing it, this was one of the songs on the CD. Brings me back so many emotions and pictures. Thank you Dido.
Когда я был маленький,слово плей лист вообще не существовало, я ровестник етой замечательной певицы мы росли с бабинами,касетами,и флешками,время хороших песен осталось в истории!
Don't Leave Home always reminds me of a very toxic relationship I had. This friend had a severe drug problem (in addition to other mental problems) and I thought of myself as his savior and that I'd be the the one to make it all better for him. Silly me. I had just bought Life For Rent and one night I was in bed listening to it. This song was playing when the phone rang and it was him, crying and having a major meltdown, caused by drug abuse and his own paranoia. I got out of bed and took a cab in the middle of the night, traveled across the city I lived in, just to be there for him and the whole time this song played in my head. I stayed by his side for many days and nights, putting my own life and needs on hold just to support him and help him recover. There I was, losing myself because I thought I'd be his "safety". Eventually it all fell apart, I wised up to his manipulations, and I could not listen to this song for years. I was a lot older, wiser and more jaded when I listened to this song again and discovered what Dido really meant to say. I was shocked, but at the same time made perfect sense. So this song was closure to me in many ways, and the coincidence between my situation and the song was part of a bigger lesson that I needed to go through... and for that I'll always thank Dido.
@@timsteele9372 she's explained it several times but she sang it from the drug's point of view as it enters a person's life, and takes control over them
Dido is one of the most talented femal singer and songwriter in the world. She composes high quality songs, moreover she is a very classy woman. Should be an example for many too much violent and useless transgressive singers nowadays!
+marco brenni I don't believe she needs to be an example for anyone. There is no one way any female singer, or male for that matter SHOULD be. You need to calm down with the judgement and your ideas of who people should be or what they should be doing. And "violent"? Give me a break. I'm so tired of people like you. Too bad you didn't throw in the "there's no good music today" so your comment could be a perfect mess of total nonsense. But nonsense goes on youtube and it goes over really well. That's why I always regret even reading it.
Great voice,great personality beautiful soul ..no singer gives me this calm soothing feeling like Dido....her voice has set a standard even in generations to come.
One of the most surprisingly brutal songs out there. Totally messed up how sweet and innocent it sounds, with only a couple of the lyrics giving it away!

yeah,i used to love this when it came out,i was like 8,i bought the life for rent record because i was obsessed with the dido songs i watched on the music channels,it was my first record,i played it over and over,know every damn lyric since i was 8 and never got tired of it, and i guess i thought this one was about love or a friendship (i'm not even from a country that speaks english so i didn't give much thought to it), and now that i'm older is weird to see the dark meaning behind it,but i think i can relate to it even more,it can be about many kinds of addictive things,i never had any addiction to substances or illegal stuff or anything like that but i had it rough in other things and emotional stuff and i can feel the lyrics more than i did 13 years ago. this woman is amazing,proud of the little me and the great taste i had in music,lol. PS: oh god,i wrote so much,sorry for the speech xD

Música perfeita demais. Voz da Dido é gostosa demais de escutar. Quando vi a tradução dessa canção, meu queixo caiu no chão. Descreveu com precisão minha situação na época.
que lindos recuerdos me trae este cd, cada tema guarda un sentimiento,un secreto , un llanto,una pasion, soledad, me hace volar a esos tiempos, me hace amar cada vez su musica
I've heard this song many times in passing over the years, but this is the first time I've really stopped to listen to the lyrics. The only thing that stood out to me before was the line "I'll be your safety", so I assumed it was a cutesy love song. But now I realize how dark it really is. "I've been here for just one day; you'll already miss me if I go away. So close the blinds and shut the door. You won't need other friends anymore. I arrived when you were weak; I'll make you weaker like a child." It was written about addiction--the addictive substance is singing to the person who is dependent on it. So for those of you who were thinking of using it at a wedding song, DON'T lol.
Mohammad Yes, but it's not quite as sinister as the song's lyrics are.This addiction is debilitating. "You won't need other friends anymore" and "I'll make you weaker, like a child." Infatuation perhaps could do that, but I'd argue not true love.
Shows Rollo and Dido's talent here. The most beautiful song and vocals masking the real dark message of drug addiction and loneliness. Like a lot of people I assume this was a cute love song but once you actually know what it's about it becomes a solid gold masterpiece.
Desde Venezuela, te amamos Dido. Gracias por existir. Espero tener la dicha de verte en vivo y directo algún día. Gracias porque me has acompañado desde mi adolescencia.
Sorry but not sorry not only is your singing voice beautiful but you're just beyond lovely. The song is wonderful and that's because your voice is so ....wonderful.
In 2022, in this world in despair, these words coud be the cry of our lord Christ to our heart ; " don't leave the house " wrapped on his heart in which he lets us enter without a key and in which safety. is found. 💙
My volume is on 1 bar and it seems like she's singing right into my ears, i pray i get over my anxiety soon, it's been 5years now and no one understands me, life seems like hell too me, i only smile once in a while when i think things will change amd this happens few minutes each time it comes and go away very far from me, i don't pray my situation even to my enemy, it hurts deeply
Dido me lembra o início da minha vida adulta. Eu ouvia sem parar dentro do meu carro indo trabalhar. Bons tempos. Pelo menos temos as músicas pra nos lembrar do passado.
To my girls… as you branch out into adulthood, remember there’s no place like home! Lots of people can be lots of things to you but your mom can never be replaced. I hope I did well enough. I will always stay with you both!
During this time with pandemic, wars and all other shit your voice is such a sanctuary. So many years passed since i`ve heard this song first time, but it still gives me this miracle feeling of calm and harmony. We need music like this.
This song from Dido seems to convince depressed people not to runaway from home. It's hard to survive life on the streets when you're in their shoes, because a lot of dangerous things happen when it comes to leaving home. 👍🏻 if you seriously agree.
Your songs are healers. I've been for so long suffering from stress and don't know any cure or anything to do about it but when I found you my life changed.
I read this was about her friend's addiction. And that is how I interpret it as an addict clean for 18 years. Dido truly got me wholly through it when I was completely alone at the moment. ❤ changed my life.
I'm so happy that you make that brave quantum jump. Next time together, right? You really need no friends anymore, I'm so enough. That waves, that black night, that center, that velocity, that eternity within this one moment, scary but absolutly safe. My little huge human. We are from the same star. Billions of years ahead.
Haven’t listened to dido since I was a teenager and was checking the catalog to see what songs I haven’t heard in years, I was sure I hadn’t heard this one…. Then the chores came up and I found myself saying all the word even though I had no idea what words were coming next. Freaking spooky I don’t think we ever forget anything we just forget we remember it.

Like a lot of people I assume this was a cute love song but once you actually know what it's about it becomes a solid gold masterpiece.
Still Love you Dido in 2021 , i miss the old days , i can't find love anywhere else except your songs ,thank you for being here
everytime I hear Dido , I get the chills, shes such an amazing singer...all I need in my cd player is Dido, every song is amazing.
Lindas demais maravilhosa essa canção 🇧🇷🇧🇷💜💜💜🌹❤️❤️❤️
Música linda,me traz uma paz e uma saudade de um tempo que infelizmente não volta mais!😍
Desde Venezuela, te amamos Dido. Gracias por existir. Espero tener la dicha de verte en vivo y directo algún día. Gracias porque me has acompañado desde mi adolescencia.
Tuve el honor de verla en vivo....es hemosa♥️ y de una voz unica ¡¡¡
@@locogabriel6616 Ты счастливый человек!
Her, this song, her voice all gorgeous. ..this should have been nominated for a grammy
You are right.i love her
she did not get nominated for a grammy
as SHE has not sold her soul to the devil that why ... that why we love her music .. : )
So dreamy even after all these years.. as timeless as they come.
Sorry but not sorry not only is your singing voice beautiful but you're just beyond lovely. The song is wonderful and that's because your voice is so ....wonderful.
In 2022, in this world in despair, these words coud be the cry of our lord Christ to our heart ; " don't leave the house " wrapped on his heart in which he lets us enter without a key and in which safety. is found. 💙
Que preciosa es Dido. Qué voz celestial!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Evertime I listen to this song, I always end up crying 😢, I don't know why....?
It's so..... emotional
Merci pour cette nostalgie après tant d'années je te retrouve en 2023 DiDo 😢
My volume is on 1 bar and it seems like she's singing right into my ears, i pray i get over my anxiety soon, it's been 5years now and no one understands me, life seems like hell too me, i only smile once in a while when i think things will change amd this happens few minutes each time it comes and go away very far from me, i don't pray my situation even to my enemy, it hurts deeply
Su tono de voz es indiscutible, se ve hermosa de cabello corto o largo, una cantante elegante, excelente ritmo, me gusta...
Dido me lembra o início da minha vida adulta. Eu ouvia sem parar dentro do meu carro indo trabalhar. Bons tempos. Pelo menos temos as músicas pra nos lembrar do passado.
To my girls… as you branch out into adulthood, remember there’s no place like home!
Lots of people can be lots of things to you but your mom can never be replaced. I hope I did well enough. I will always stay with you both!
During this time with pandemic, wars and all other shit your voice is such a sanctuary. So many years passed since i`ve heard this song first time, but it still gives me this miracle feeling of calm and harmony. We need music like this.
Esta canción sin duda alguna es una obra de arte ¡Bravo Dido!
♫♪
Sweetest love song, and most beautiful singer.
What a singer. One of the greatest female singer of all time in my humble opinion
I miss those times wen music was music
You look back and look forward to what everyone is going through right now and you can only wish the world would be good one more time 😢
This song from Dido seems to convince depressed people not to runaway from home. It's hard to survive life on the streets when you're in their shoes, because a lot of dangerous things happen when it comes to leaving home. 👍🏻 if you seriously agree.
Sorry mate.All is well with God.He knows us and understands our pain.. sending lots of hugs and love❤ your way.Be strong and keep the faith
Still listening after i have 3 children, lots of memory,thank you Dido❤️
Hello, seasons greetings
Your songs are healers. I've been for so long suffering from stress and don't know any cure or anything to do about it but when I found you my life changed.
Knowing the creator and giver of life Jesus Christ took me out of depression, anxiety, stress. He'll do it for you too 🙏🏾
Memories course through my veins..Dido...you spoke to me at the right place of my life. Till today...@ solid
I read this was about her friend's addiction. And that is how I interpret it as an addict clean for 18 years. Dido truly got me wholly through it when I was completely alone at the moment. ❤ changed my life.
Relaxing..she has got beautiful voice..
that type of song it's really clean, when i listen i feeling very well inside my soul. thank you DIDO (y)
Eu tof

1969 Porsche 911 in this video, a Dodge Viper and a Ferrari F355 Spyder in White Flag. Either Dido or her director have some nice taste in cars.
And the beautiful Chevrolet Bel Air for the video of No Freedom
Can’t believe I am now 23 and still listening to this song my childhood memories song 💗
This song, her voice, this video is so magical and peaceful
William Papadin brought me here!
2024... Still tickles my brain just like 15 years ago. May you always be well Dido, wherever you are.. And thank you for all these years
Years ago I heard this beatiful song, so I dedicated one person than I loved, so much but It`s over ...and still in my heart...forever...
Dido is incredible ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉💞💞💞✨✨✨✨🌹
A beautiful song by a beautiful woman! I love her music very much because her voice is legendary! 😍😇💘
I know this is about drug addiction, but I rcently lost a beloved pet, and this song reminds me of her little love.
This is our childhood ,is so beautiful ❤
Linda demais essa música da Dido que voz 😘😍❤❤👏👏👏 faz parte da trilha sonora de Da cor do pecado 2004.
I'm so happy that you make that brave quantum jump. Next time together, right?
You really need no friends anymore, I'm so enough.
That waves, that black night, that center, that velocity, that eternity within this one moment, scary but absolutly safe. My little huge human. We are from the same star. Billions of years ahead.
It's 2024 and am still listening to this song Dido you were talented indeed u always touch my heart ❤️❤️
Haven’t listened to dido since I was a teenager and was checking the catalog to see what songs I haven’t heard in years, I was sure I hadn’t heard this one….
Then the chores came up and I found myself saying all the word even though I had no idea what words were coming next.
Freaking spooky
I don’t think we ever forget anything we just forget we remember it.
I love Dido
Nostalgic feelings, my only true friend, Love you dad RIP
