Cast your mind back to the release of ôNever Be The
Same Againö (1999), which seemed to come out of
nowhere and turned Sporty SpiceÆs image on its head.
For the least pushy of the fabulous five, it was
something of a turn up for the books. And now, at
the ripe old age of 52 (whipper-snapper), sheÆs
pulled off what could be considered another volte
face.
Ask me to name the female artist with the most songs
at number 1 in the UK chartÆs history and I wouldnÆt
have plumped for Ms Melanie. But thatÆs what the
blurb claims, alongside this mega fact: ôshe is he
only female performer to top the charts solo, as
part of a duo, quartet and quintet.ö Blimey. The
accompanying press release also mentions that,
before the Spice Girls, she was in a ægroupÆ (The
Fucking Yeah Four) larging it up on the Costa Brava.
Once a raver, always a raver.
ItÆs with this attitude, and a love of working out,
that Melanie has created Sweat, her aim to create ôa
joyful record at a dark time". And, in that, she has
succeeded with flair .The title track, ôSweatö, is a
full-force banger for the gym bunnies, sampling
Diana RossÆ 1981 ôWork That Bodyö. ItÆs catchy in a
refreshing, uncomplicated way. Proper pop music.
Similarly ôDrum Machineö harks back to happier days
when hedonism was the priority û itÆs a summer
anthem. And thereÆs a lot more of this sort of
well-written, polished-production û ôWhat Could
Possibly Go Wrong?ö, ôPressureö, ôAttitudeö, ôFree
to Loveö to name a few. Any one of them could be a
single.
Her voice can be strident on occasion, but through
this, her ninth studio album, sheÆs low-key,
allowing the music to make as much of an impression
as her vocal. ôCashmereö stands out as a more gentle
take, with an infuriatingly catchy chorus and rumba
rhythm. ôUndefeated Championö is a statement of
intent: ôafter all the bullshit IÆve been throughö.
ItÆs not hard to imagine this becoming a karaoke
classic. The last song of this 13-tracker, ôFlick of
the Wristö, is a suitably strong finale for this pop
and house-tinged grooviness, which clearly stems
from her burgeoning DJ career. This album could
actually spice up your life if youÆre after non-
challenging but highly uplifting dance fare.
