Odds & Ends is Dido's first recording album, which was never released officially.
In 1995, Dido began recording demo tracks which were put together on a collection entitled Odds & Ends and sent out by Nettwerk management. Nettwerk had signed her after she was brought to their attention by her collaborations with Faithless (Dido co-wrote and provided vocals for album tracks, such as "Flowerstand Man" and "Hem of His Garment") and the UK dance act spearheaded by her brother, Rollo Armstrong.
The collection was released by Nettwerk on CD-R acetate in 1995 and featured a mixture of finished productions and demo versions which she later considered for release on her debut album, released in 1999 as No Angel. Odds & Ends brought her to the attention of Arista Records, who signed her in the United States, striking a deal with her brother's record label, Cheeky Records, to co-sign her.
The track "Believe (Flu Season Mix)" is a remix of the song "Take My Hand", while three of the other tracks were included as bonus tracks on some editions of the album No Angel (see below), with the track "Don't Think Of Me" of that album appearing as a modified version of "Sweet Eyed Baby".
"Give Me Strength" later appeared on Over the Rhine's 2001 album Films For Radio.
