Mel C looks like she has the downs.

I would too if i was getting constant shit from people... the press, record labels, and just people who can't accept art for what it is... personal expression.

Review for Beautiful Intentions by Billboard
Beautiful Intentions, the third solo album by former Spice Girl Melanie C, marked a turning point in the big-voiced pop star's career; it was the first album released on Melanie's own label, Red Girl Records, following her departure from Virgin Records. Thus, Melanie C was finally allowed to don the name "Indie Spice," which she had lingering around her for some time already. The new creative control that Melanie C had over her album broadened her horizons considerably; Melanie allowed herself to fly more freely on Intentions, giving her solo music -- which was always rock-tinged pop music -- a sharp new look. On Beautiful Intentions, Melanie C developed her style into an aggressive pop-angled album boasting heavy beats with dramatic rock swings doused in musical cyclones of energy. She borrowed qualities from other heavy-talented rock divas such as Anastacia to produce a more bombastic sampling this time around. Individually, the majority of the songs were well suited for radio, with strong lyrical support, thanks to Melanie, who co-wrote all but one track on the album. What's most exciting is how, on the album's choice ballads, Melanie C actually soars over the music and kicks Spice booty with terrific vocals; the poignant "First Day of My Life" is the strongest individual track, as Melanie glimmers with poise over simple yet classy music. Tracks like "Next Best Superstar" and "Beautiful Intentions" showcase Melanie C best in the pop light, and the remaining ten tracks all support her stunning voice with contemporary rock synthesized with pure pop. The final product is simply dazzling; and Beautiful Intentions is without a doubt the strongest solo album by any of the Spice Girls. Truth be told, it was one of the strongest solo pop albums of 2005, regardless of artist. ~ Matthew Chisling, All Music Guide

Really? Nah I think it was cause she used to wear her hair too tight or something.

I can accept art. Just some I think is good and some I don't care for. Her voice doesn't sound nice to me. Doesn't mean she can't sing. I'm sure a lot of other people feel like this.

yeah... i get ya. i just think people are too hard on certain singers and bands... i dont like certain singers and bands but i dont go on a mad tirade against them... i appreciate what they do but it doesnt appeal to me... i wouldnt dream of slaggin them off to high heaven

I think if you are going to be part of a manufactured band like the Spice Girls you should be prepared that people will not take you seriously as a musician later on.

Besides which, I know heaps of people that like her and go to her concerts.

Well at least shes still recording and the like... more than the rest of the Spice Girls... she is uber-cool...

in my opinion when i was a little'un she was the worst spice girl, but probably because also she was the least prettiest. she annoys me, her accent annoys me, her face annoys me.

I guess in essence it doesnt really matter what we say about her... shes got her millions to keep her happy at the end of a long and busy day of good things and put downs
