Featuring Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes, this was the song that really sent the 'Northern Star' album soaring up the charts around the world, and helped it shift over 3 million copies.
I'm amazed they never tried this in America. It's a far stronger, and more US friendly track than 'I turn To You', though that song is excellent too.
The whole 'Northern Star' album was really, really good. Shame she really got the Sophomore slump badly. the track 'Go' is amazing, so should've been a single. The title track is lovely too.
This song hit #1 in the UK, and was a big hit around the world.

I really liked this song. It peaked at #3 on my chart, and was my #43 song of 2000.

It's alright. I only like Lisa's part, and it was one of her weaker raps too. "I Turn To You" is much better.

This is a lot better than "ITTY." There was a lot of speculation I heard of them wanting to release this in America.
I loved the music video too. This did indeed save her album.

I loved this song and video! It was played all the time on CMC! It was played so much that I thought it was a U.S. single for a while there. |

a former #1 on my chart... Melanie C. definately showed that out of all the former Spice Girls, she had the most potential

This and Mel C's duet with Bryan Adams, "When You're Gone" are the only songs by her that I can stand. I guess I just find her voice annoying..

#4 on my personal chart, and I love the video. That's the highest any solo Spice Girl has ever reached on my chart. The next highest peak came from Mel C's Northern Star at #14. I bought the album too, but the rest of the album tracks were rather disappointing. I haven't listened to it since 2000 or maybe even before that.

Loved it, this was a great fusion of two artists you would never expect to work together. Glad this did so well, just wish it was given a shot in the US.

My favorite Melanie C single, and in my top 3 solo Spice singles (only behind Geri's "Ride It"). The "single mix" of this is the far superior version. Although it did not differ too much from the album version, I feel it gave it just the extra umph it needed.
