Just confirmed on Twitter by the lady herself. If it's anything as good an album as 'The Sea' I am on board with this. Crazy to think she is now seven albums into a solo career! |

Welcome back. I know her album will under-perform like many of her others, but her albums are always worth purchasing.

Her Grunge Spice days really ruined ber career hey :/ I think ruining a career inpacts on musical quality too as the label isn't prepared to front the €

I'm hoping the fact you need less than 2k in sales to go Top 40 plus the fact Melanie always does all the promo she can (Daytime TV, Magazines, Radio etc,) means that in chart position terms she should do well even though it will fade away quite quickly. |

I always find that I like one of her albums, then don't like the next, then I like the one after etc... So seeing as though Stages was a complete non-event for me, I should like this one! |

I was about to say Mel's self released all her music for the last 10 years.
The Sun have Tweeted there is a comeback interview with her in the Bizarre column tomorrow in which she apparently berates the notion of the whole Spice Girls GEM thing. |

Hope she's not going for column inches regarding the GEM thing, she didn't want to be part of it which is totally fine but she can't berate the other girls for doing so or as a way of saying thank you to the fans who 20 years on are still supporting! |

Finally! To think it's already been 5 years since Melanie's last (proper) studio album.
It seems she's been exploring different sounds for this album, judging by who's she been working with (for instance, Sons of Sonix) so it'll be interesting to hear the results and if she deviates quite far from her usual pop/rock sound. Very much looking forward to hearing the single that precedes the album release. Not expecting any sort of success from a single, but like ___∆___ says, I hope she achieves a decent album chart position. ~ Here's a new Melanie C article, which she's written herself: http://www.thelovemagazine.co.uk/posts/688...e-girls-reunion She talks about deciding not to be a part of a Spice Girls reunion. |

Lest we forget, she was the one in 2007 who was point blank about not wanting to do it then. I've read the interview Jay just posted. A lot of what she says is sensible and measured, not "berating" as Dan Wootton made out (what even is the point of that man?). But whilst part of me agrees with what she said about the Olympics in 2012 being hard to ever top, part of me also thinks "Yes, but who's to say it wouldn't work as a four or three?". It's been a quartet before. I think this is going to be an interesting album certainly. As has been cited the recent Sons of Sonix collaboration was a move forward for her from her usual sound. If it gets good promo and with the way album sales are these days she'll easily be looking at a top 40 album. |

I can't wait for this album !! I am surprised she is releasing it after the spice saga, when she does promo all they will ask her about is why she is not doing the reunion!
I'm a huge fan and hope for some solo shows very soon. I can fathom how the 3 spices can do a live show without her ? She sings all the adlibs etc .... |

I don't pay much attention to Mel aside from a few tunes from her singles catalogue but The Sea was actually really really good, so I shall have to take a listen to what comes out of this era! I'm not a huge fan of Numb so hopefully that isn't indicative of the whole album.

Yes!! Get that single launch on R2 Melanie Loving 'Numb' but that seemed to slip by unnoticed by everyone but guessing that was more of a buzz release for the album?
