Northern Star (Melanie C Album)
Northern Star is the first solo album released by Spice Girl Melanie C. It was released on October 18, 1999. The album's sound is diverse, combining elements of rock music with pop and ambient electronic, along with some R&B, doo-wop, and new age; which contrasted with the pop sound of the Spice Girls. It was reasonably well received by critics and was a commercial success, selling over 900,520 copies in the United Kingdom, and close to 4 million copies worldwide, becoming the biggest-selling solo Spice Girl album so far.
It was reissued on August 21, 2000 to feature the single mixes of "Never Be the Same Again" and "I Turn to You", after the massive success of the Hex Hector remix of "I Turn to You", which appears here in a slightly different remixed form.

Famous quotes containing the words northern and/or star:
“For generations, a wide range of shooting in Northern Ireland has provided all sections of the population with a pastime which ... has occupied a great deal of leisure time. Unlike many other countries, the outstanding characteristic of the sport has been that it was not confined to any one class.”
—Northern Irish Tourist Board. quoted in New Statesman (London, Aug. 29, 1969)
“A brush had left a crooked stroke
Of what was either cloud or smoke
From north to south across the blue;
A piercing little star was through.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
