Still on My Mind
2019 studio album by Dido
Still on My Mind is the fifth studio album by English singer Dido, released on 8 March 2019 through BMG. It is her first studio album since 2013's Girl Who Got Away. The album was supported by singles "Give You Up", "Take You Home", "Friends" and "Just Because".
Recording
Dido wrote and recorded the album in the UK with her brother Rollo. She said she "only wanted to make another album if it was with him", and called the recording process simple and an "absolutely magical experience", saying it was "made in such an easy way, all the vocals recorded on the sofa, a lot of it recorded at home".
Dido said she inadvertently made the album very similar to No Angel. Dido felt no one would ever hear No Angel at the time of its release and that the feeling that no one would hear her album crept into Still on My Mind because she had a good time recording it.
Dido learned a lot about production while making the album on songs like "Hell After This" and "Mad Love". She described her style of production as less professional, haphazard, and a mess compared to her brother, Rollo Armstrong, as she records everything in one take and is constantly deleting stuff. The final track on the album, "Have to Stay", was recorded in its first take as she was writing it. The person Dido was writing with, Ryan Laubscher, doesn't move chords for the first two verses of the song because he's getting to grips with what she's singing as she's singing it for the first time.

Why this record matters
The phrase “2019 studio album by Dido” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Reception evidence should be dated and situated: later canonical status may differ sharply from the work’s initial circulation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 13, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q60573726. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2019 and 2013.
Later fame can flatten the distinction between original context, subsequent adaptation and institutional collecting history. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
