OMG! Go here NOW: http://www.didomusic.com/

Download "Look No Further" for free, you can't miss it, it's in the center of the site. That song is not the new single however. The new single is called "Don't Believe In Love", that is the song that starts playing when the site loads. Or you can listen to it on youtube, here for instead:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ToBII382OCc

I like them both. "Don't Believe In Love" is a bit different. You'll see. I like "Look No Further" better.

Oh and also check the little vid from the site. And the album cover and the tracklist. GO NOW!!! lol

Sowwy I'm a bit too excited about the whole new album thing.

[shades]

^^
I'm really liking 'Look No Further'


And when my friend said she misses me... that made me smile, and feel kind of sad at the same time.
