The Spice Girls had major success in the early 90s until the five-member group broke up in 2000 after disappointing sells of its final CD, Forever.

As soloist the former members have hade little success, however, Melanie Chisholm, also known as Sporty Spice, who had the strongest voice, may have finally broken that curse.

With Beautiful Intentions she has proven that she still has that means for success.

The 12-track album, produced by Greg Haver and Stephen Budd, showcases Chisholm at one of her strongest vocal performance.

With the lead single “Beautiful Intentions,” Chisholm’s voice is strong and powerful, while with songs such as “Better Alone” and “You’ll Get Yours” Chisholm’s can turn mournful and hurt.

Throughout “Beautiful Intentions” the lovestruck Chisholm laments the love she has with someone with such lyrics as, “So blind that I can’t decided if you know I harbored beautiful intentions for you.”

This song has additional appeal because of the strong synthesizer of musician Paul Boddy.

When the synthesizer comes in the listener knows it is in for a rock and in-your-face tune.

However, the two songs that are the strongest and the ones with the most soothing vocals that Chisholm provides are “Better Alone” and “You’ll Get Yours.”

In “Better Alone” Chisholm is able to transition from rock star to scorned lover.

“And every time I think I’ve got this all worked out/ Something chews me up and spits me out/But there’s nothing left to fear/I’m better alone my dear,” she sings.

Again the synthesizers helped out a great deal with set the mood and Chisholm’s vocals have never sounded so intimate.

The final track, “You’ll Get Yours” fits into that category as well and what a way to close the album.

The song provides a feeling of woman empowerment as she sings, “Many things will come to pass/I can live with that/I can’t help but wonder when you’ll get yours.”
