Track Description
Available in:
"Thank You" is a song by British singer and songwriter Dido. The song was released on her debut studio album, No Angel (1999). The song made its first appearance in 1998, on the soundtrack of Sliding Doors, although it was not released as a single until late 2000. It later featured on Dido's debut album, No Angel, becoming the album's biggest hit. The song samples the "Theme from the Planets" drum break. The song's first verse is famously sampled in the song "Stan" by Eminem.

"Thank You" reached a peak position of #3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in April 2001, becoming Dido's first and only top three single in the United States. In the United Kingdom, "Thank You" also reached a peak position of #3, becoming the singer's third top three single from No Angel in the United Kingdom. It was Dido's biggest single in the United Kingdom, until the release of "White Flag".

"Thank You" also performed very well in other mainstream markets. In New Zealand, the song debuted at number 47. The song later peaked at number three for three consecutive weeks. The song later re-entered at number 37, until falling at number 50, then re-entered at number 49. The song failed to chart in Australia despite receiving significant airplay. The song debuted and peaked at number 17 in Norway, until falling at number 20. The song debuted at number 68 in the Netherlands, and then it peaked at number 29, staying there for two consecutive weeks. The song also reached number 16 in Switzerland and number 25 in Austria.

Since becoming her biggest hit in both countries, the song has often been recognized as Dido's signature song.


Dido recorded a music video for "Thank You". In the video, Dido has not paid her bills, and the government comes to tear down her house. The construction workers put an eviction notice on her door and move her things out. Dido, who seems oblivious to the fact that her house has been barricaded, is seen simply singing the song. In the end, she is escorted out of her home and is forced to walk the streets with a backpack and suitcases. During the first chorus of the song, Dido has a cup of tea whilst moving and demolishing all the stuff outside her house into the van.

The end of the video implies that her house is being torn down for redevelopment (her home is sandwiched between two large skyscrapers). The video was directed by Dave Meyers and was released in January 2001.

Another music video has Dido performing the song live at one of her concerts, audio is dubbed from the soundtrack.
