Here with Me (Dido song)

"Here with Me" is a song by English singer-songwriter Dido. It was the first single she released from her 1999 debut studio album, No Angel. The song was written about her then-boyfriend Bob Page. The single was released on 17 May 1999 in the United States but was not released in the United Kingdom until February 2001, serving as Dido's debut single in her home country. In other territories, it was issued as the album's second single, following "Thank You". Shortly after its release, "Here with Me" was used as the theme song for the American science fiction television programme Roswell (1999–2002).

Music videos
Two distinct music videos were produced for the track. The first version was filmed in 1999, and released to the American market. The American version was directed by Big TV! and uses footage of the singer rendered in sepia tones. Dido later stated that she hoped to record a new video for international release. The second version, shot in full colour and directed by Liz Friedlander, was released in May 2000. This became the video released to the British and European markets; the music video for the international version was filmed in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Synopsis The synopsis for the second version of the video begins with Dido wearing all blue clothing shooting a scene in all blue coloured bedroom set. After finishing filming she cleans herself up and takes a long walk on the streets in Downtown, Toronto. After stopping at a coffee shop to buy herself some coffee Dido immediately drops it and continues walking the streets alone thus dropping her coat in the process. The video ends with Dido letting herself in at an apartment, where she finds a man asleep and then lies next to him in his bed before the shot zooms out to reveal itself to be a photograph with Dido back in her blue clothes and bedroom set again holding it, then turns it over and pushes it against her chest. ==Track listings==
