Mel C - I Turn To You (2000)


WHAT...?????? - I hear you shout, but while I never really rated the Spice Girls, I seriously do think that Mel C. has had the best, meaningful and sustainable career launch off the commercial pedestal, which Spice Girls as a format provided. Indeed, I do rate her musical talent and achievements to date very high.
Melanie Chisholm - a.k.a. Mel C. - was born in 1974 in Whiston, Lancashire/UK, joining the Spice Girls only in 1994, after the original fifth member, Lianne Morgan, left the group. Twp years later, in 1996, the quintett shot to instant fame with 'Wannabe'. Because Mel usually wore a tracksuit with her hair in a ponytail and sporting the attitude of a tomboy, she was called 'Sporty Spice'. After the third album release 'Forever', the members went their separate ways and Mel developed a solo career.

Lyrics:

When the world is darker than I can understand.
When nothing turns out the way I planned.
When the sky turns grey and there's no end in sight.
When I can't sleep through the lonely night.

I turn to you. Like a flower leaning toward the sun.
I turn to you. 'Cos you're the only one.
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down.
I turn to you.

When my insides are wracked with anxiety.
You have the touch that will quiet me.
You lift my spirit. You melt the ice.
When I need inspiration, when I need advice.

I turn to you. Like a flower leaning toward the sun.
I turn to you. 'Cos you're the only one.
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down.
I turn to you.

Where would I be? What would I do?
If you'd never helped me through.
I hope someday if you've lost your way.
You could turn to me like I turn to you.

I turn to you. Like a flower leaning toward the sun.
I turn to you. 'Cos you're the only one.
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down.
I turn to you.

I turn to you. When fear tells me to turn around.
I turn to you. 'Cos you're the only one.
Who can turn me around when I'm upside down.
I turn to you. I turn to you. I turn to you.
