Am I the only one who finds this Melanie C CD-R a bit suspicious?

I'm not saying it's fake, but some things don't quite add up for me.

The biggest question mark is "So Many Questions". It could be a genuine Melanie demo, a working title, a song recorded by another artist, or something else entirely. At this point we simply don't know.

But what really confuses me is the inclusion of "I Turn To You (Remix)". The CD-R is supposedly dated May 1999, yet Northern Star wasn't released until October 1999, and I Turn To You didn't become a single until August 2000.

Are we really expected to believe that a remix of I Turn To You already existed in May 1999, before the album had even been released and more than a year before anyone had decided it would be a single? That seems incredibly unusual.

Of course, record companies often commission remixes long before release plans are finalized, so it's not impossible. But the timing feels odd enough that I'd be very cautious before accepting this CD-R as 100% authentic.

The item itself may well be genuine, but based on the tracklisting alone, I think there are still a lot of unanswered questions.

No, I definitely think they might be fake. Unless proven otherwise, I think it would be safe to assume based on the fact that the seller is simply giving not much information on how they got it (a collector's storage unit sure but a collector is not a reliable source since it could be fan-made stuff that collectors also often purchase/gather), the songs content (just the titles the seller themselves given them) and also the randomness and tag price (people don't even buy the real Spice promos that go for like €500 anymore lol why would they buy £2000-2500 random CDrs with no proof?)...

I believe more in the Mel B ones, for sure. The Teddy Rilley one is the one that looks the more 'real' to me.

About the I Turn To You (remix), it is possible that this was supposed to be a single in the early stages of the album production and that some money was invested in a remix, or it could be an alternative mix. HOWEVER, we don't know anything about this based on the sellers' description. They don't say if it is a different mix from the Hex Hector or album track mixing, or even the StoneBridge mix. They simply call it a remix and don't say anything else...

So I honestly don't know... We should ask the seller to provide some clips or more information. I am sure with some proof, a few fans would gather money to purchase them if they were deemed to be real.

  • Ok, I’m a bit of an insomniac, so I went down the rabbit hole. These are the only discrepancies that I noticed. I hope this helps some. I’ll try to find the appropriate links from Spice News or other

Updated with the The Singles Collections demos, in their respective era and by release date.

I think there might be a couple of other inclusions on this list to come from that release but I will do that eventually lol

Are there any recently found out songs that I am missing? Maybe some Mel C ones? I have been mostly away from the internet and haven't followed their latest releases much at all...

I think there's no need to put Do You Think About Me twice, they are actually the same it's just quality difference.

(did we know that some covers and intros performed on the Return of the Spice Girls Tour and 2019 tour tracks are registered on ASCAP?)

Mel B - Are You Gonna Go My Way? https://www.ascap.com/repertory#/ace/search/workID/310319429

Spice Girls - Celebration https://www.ascap.com/repertory#/ace/search/workID/330279293

Spice Girls - INTRO CALLING OF THE WORLDS https://www.ascap.com/repertory#/ace/search/workID/903013183

Spice Girls - Queer Tango (2019 tour) https://www.ascap.com/repertory#/ace/search/workID/901972472

So recordings were made out of these performances? Is that what it means?...
