REQ: Melanie C | On the Horizon (2003)
06 January 2008 // 2:04 PM
After the success of her first album, Melanie C went back into the studio to record what would become her second and final album for Virgin Records. The first single, "Here it Comes Again," didn't stack up to the success of her previous work, charting at #7 in the UK and barely scraping the Top 20 in countries across Europe.
For the albums' second single, Virgin initially decided to take a different approach. "On the Horizon" was set to be released in the UK only, with "Positively Somewhere" being released worldwide and "Let's Love" being released in Japan. However, as the release dates were approaching, Virgin decided against this plan. "On the Horizon" was now going to be released everywhere except Japan, where "Let's Love" was being used in an automobile campaign, therefore receiving a single release.
The track featured production from Gregg Alexander, formerly of the New Radicals, so both Melanie C and her fans were confident that "On the Horizon" would fare well. Unfortunately, they were proven wrong when the charts were released the following week. The single failed to crack the Top 10, peaking at #14 in the UK and did no better anywhere else.
