Oooooh exelent... I can't wait for the singles
Good luck to her, she deserves more success than she's getting
"I Want Candy" is a rubbish song.
Why did she never release "First Day Of My Life" in the UK? That song is easily the best thing a former Spice Girl has ever done
I want candy... how disappointing ... the german release sounds more exciting.
Ive not heard either
is it off a new album?
I miss MelCs Northan Star days
when she did that song with that Right Eyed Lisa woman
hmm its an ok song but i doubt its gonna do that well, hope it does though
must be the leads off the 4th album
Can't see it doin well but best of luck to her
I agree, she deserves much more success. I loved Next Best Superstar, I don't get why people don't buy into her more?
Heres Melanie C's new single " I want candy "
Its a great comeback song with a great video!
Shes changed her image and her style of music.
What do you think? Possibly number 1? top 3? top 5? top 10? top 20? or just top 40?
Give us ur opinion!
dreadful, probs no where but depends what the film does
Bloody hell, I thought it was Suzi Quatro from the top photo!
I think that it will struggle to make the top 30. According to HMV, it is only being released as a maxi CD single and 7" single (both £2.99 each). I think that it's a mistake not to have a £1.99 CD single format.
I think probably high end top 20.
top 30, dont think its a good comeback
Me Thinks - just inside Top 20.
But boy she looks real sexy
Top20...but its not a great single. The moment you believe German CD single would have been a much better choice of song, its similar to First day of my life.
MmM could be top 10 but I think maybe top 15- 14 or 15 perhaps.

It's not that bad actually Although I'm confused about the lyrics, is she actually admitting she's a lesbian then? I noticed some of the lyrics have been changed, but you still can't get away from the fact that she really wants Candy
I think it will chart Top 20... if it's lucky
Oh My Good God.
scrape top 20 if its lucky
#42
This is pretty awful.
Might make it to about #17 with HARD promotion. But she doesn't stand a chance of success with this really...
She is promoting it a lot lol, I like it - very fun, a nice change for MC. #15
#38. This won't do anything at all IMO.
Will scrape top 40.
Absoloutely f***ing awful
Sorry, but how bad is that song? There's something about her voice that I really can't stand. Don't see this doing very well in the charts! Doubt she will get any higher the top 30.
xXx
Ok it's a cover... not a good way to comeback (yes emma did it this way but her single was for a good cause), not to mention this song has been covered so many times. its not original and i don't think it'll go very far.
She has a voice like a CHAINSAW.
The look is FUGLY and the song SHITE.
That said The Sun are supporting it so probably will make #06
Candy rots your teeth, this song will rot your brain. Her only ever successful album will be 'Northern Star' and this comeback will flop harder than a fat guy jumping off a diving board. All Saints, eat your heart out! My prediction...35
This is a very weak comeback imo. Only top 20 but just because she is "Mel C".
Last time maybe Aaron Carter sang I Want Candy?!
I think no.16.
I've never actually heard this song before but this version at least is very weak and won't do anything in the charts. The video is alright and 'The Moment You Believe' is a slightly better song but even that is slightly weak and wouldn't do much in The UK Charts. I feel this may just scrape very low top 20 or it may well just miss the top 20 but it certainly won't get top 10 and probably won't get top 15. I expect her album in The UK to bomb and judging by 'I Want Candy' and 'The Moment You Believe', I wouldn't be surprised if it missed the top 40. I personally am not a big fan of Melanie C but I actually felt that 'The Next Best Superstar' which was the lead single off her last album, was a pretty decent song which should probably have got higher than 10 and I also liked 'First Day Of My Life' and whilst it was never going to get top 40, I felt that 'Better Alone' wasn't too bad either despite being a little bland however, I feel the exact opposite about 'I Want Candy' and 'The Moment You Believe'. I can't honestly see either of the two songs being succesful anyway even in Germany where she is fairly big.
It's a fantastic comeback single.
She looks great .
The most talented of the Spice Girls is back.
It's a better version than Bow Wow Wow's and uses the Bo Diddley riff which has been used by many artistes over the years inc Buddy Holly & Rolling Stones.
Top 5 cert !!!!!
I saw this video on tele this morning and cringed... I'd say top 20 just because she seems to have some sort of fanbase that will be buying...
Top 20, just.
i like it, its fun, video is fun. i hope this goes top 20 for her.
But Emmas better lol
BTW i think it will be number 10
Ben79: Shes huge in Germany, TMYB is already #3 on the airplay charts and the album sold many of its copies there (Beautiful Intentions).
I think it will be Top 20, but only because of lack of radio support, as it has happened with every solo spice release for quite a while...
I am a Mel C fan, but I don't like the song that much. But I have seen lots of worse tracks doing fine, even being hits in the UK charts... so with a better promotion and the film being big, it could perfectly be top 10!
And, yes, Mel IS big in Germany... all her albums have sold well there, not only because of FDOML, which, if you don't know, was #1 too in Portugal, Spain, and Top 3 in Switzerland and Austria.
hope she does well.
i can see it at number 14. shame, cus she is trying harder thatn lisa scott lee! jajja
i want her (and emma) to do really well
but i think she will struggle top 20 though i hope she manages top 15
i think mel is better doing the fun edgy pop rather than the guitar based sound of recent singles (if u get what i mean, lol)
i saw the trailer for I Want Candy on wednesday. looks hilarious. a true british film lol
Just why have they released I Want Candy in the UK instead of the far superior The Moment You Believe which is climbing fast in Europe.
They did it last year in not releasing what was her best ever single First Day Of My Life. This was massive all over Europe and elsewhere.
I'm sure her record company are trying to ruin here UK career.
She owns her own record label so I doubt she'd want to ruin her career herself.
She released I Want Candy here because it was attached to a film which, I assume, she thought would help promote the single and therefore gain a better position.
I am sure we will get The Moment You Believe next, if she still bothers with the UK.
She is signed to her own independent record label 'Red Girl Records' which she manages for herself so if anything she is ruining it for herself.
We didn't get the second single from the last album, so I wouldn't hold your breath for a second single in the UK from this one.
Well yeah her owning her own record company kinda scuppers your theory on ruining her career. I think Mel thought that Next Best Superstar kinda flopped over here and Better Alone got absolutely no attention, so she would go for something a lot poppier and... that didn't work either..
First Day Of My Life her best single? Dont think so...
Seriously, how can they have wasted this amazing amazing song Already Gone as the b-side to the atrocious I Want Candy?!
Is the rest of the album as good as this? I've been humming it for the last fortnight
Bloody hell, this is one FIIIINE song!! Its absolutely amazing, i dont know how it was only a b-side either
Yes, the album is as good! Its not all uptmepo stuff but if you like this, i would definitely recomment the album
This song is just sooo good, dunno why it's a B-side though.
I haven't heard it yet!
Where can I hear/get it?
If you can play vinyl, you can buy the I Want Candy single on vinyl, as that features Already Gone as a b-side. Otherwise, download it from Tesco Digital/7 Digital. Itunes dont have it, though
Should be an album track not a b-side on the vinyl!!!
