According to Clive's book, he takes credit for nearly every act that ever had a hit record.
Read Wayne Rosso's take on the book. Hilarious!

In his new book, Clive Davis takes the credit for signing Dido:
"Dido, who I had personally signed after being alerted by Hosh Gureli and Peter Edge to her exceptional songwriting ability".

I think Richard would agree with you!

For some reason she struck a chord. It is perplexing in many ways, but I would hardly call her average looking. Not that Dido's looks had anything to with her sales. It's like Norah Jones selling 8M albums. I don't think the label saw that coming either, but Dido at 30M? Hype doesn't get an album to that number.
Now and then this happens. It's happened with Adele.
