Required Listening: Melanie C’s “Think About It”

I’ve got a personal post coming up, but I haven’t had the chance to sit down and finish it, so for now, here’s a fun song from Melanie C from 2011 that probably would’ve had a good chance over here if people hadn’t stopped paying attention to the Spice Girls after their breakup.Melanie C’s had some hits and misses in her solo career, but some of her more potent material ranks up there in the pop world.  “Think About It” fits the recent trend of dance-pop morsels that are just good fun, and her voice remains in solid form.  I like the uplifting feel of the track as well.

Additional listening

She’s not the only ex-Spice Girl to keep things going, and not the only one to do it well, either.  I’ll be featuring Emma Bunton, who’s developed an amazing retro vibe in her solo material, in an upcoming post. In the meantime, enjoy this track co-written by The Bird and the Bee‘s Greg Kurstin and former pop star Cathy Dennis. (Both of them deserve their own post too, frankly):
