British songstress Dido sees the world "in songs".

The 41-year-old singer - who rose to fame after recording vocals for Eminem's smash hit 'Stan' - is currently promoting the release of her new album 'Girl Who Got Away'.

Dido took time out of the industry to start a family, and says music always features in her life - even when she's not on stage or in the studio.

Speaking to British newspaper The Telegraph she explained: “I see the world in songs. My idea of relaxing is to sing and play, even if half the time it’s nursery rhymes. I do love singing. Stanley’s two and recently it’s been a lot of fun, ‘cause he loves music, he loves drumming, he loves joining in band rehearsals, he’s just so excited. It’s so nice seeing it through someone else’s eyes, a proper, fresh perspective.

She continued: "I have done music since I was a teeny little kid. It’s sort of been the answer to everything, bad times, good times, whatever times, music is a comfort and it’s limitless to me. I know I will never get bored in my life ‘cause I’ve got that.”
