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.

Over the proud unfruitful sea,

Happily or unhappily....”

This fallen star my milk sustains,
This love that makes my heart’s blood stop
