Melanie Chisholm quotes about
blessed thinking people
I don't think I'm a great singer myself. I'm all right. I've worked with different writers, different producers... I've just been blessed with the caliber of people I've been able to work with.
hurt want offensive
I don't want to hurt anybody or be offensive. But I don't want to not be me.
voice use singers
I know I'm not a great singer. But I love to sing and I like to use my voice in different ways.
love-is everyday honest
I love being onstage and I love to perform. To be honest with you, I'm more comfortable performing than I am in an everyday situation, which I can't quite explain.
kids opportunity thinking
I recognise a lot of myself in these kids who enter shows like Pop Idol. It's very hard to get into the music industry and you have to take every opportunity that you can. Something like Pop Idol is a great opportunity but unfortunately, I think it's tainted by the people that make these shows.
girl thinking reflection
I don't think the Spice Girls are celebrated as much as they should be. We championed British pop worldwide. We toured everywhere to sell-out crowds and I think there should have been a reflection of that at February's Brit's anniversary.
selfish nice thinking
A lot of the time, the British press make me ashamed and embarrassed to be British. They give others the impression that the British are selfish, envious and bitter people, which is simply not true in my opinion. I think that British people in general are really nice and friendly.
giving good-times shots
Give it your best shot, have a good time and if it doesn't work at least you tried!
No one can take away the days that we conquered.
Some things weren't designed to understand.
pages looks feels
If you turn the pages and look inside, there is nothing of me I feel that I have to hide.
real too-much situation
I swear in real life-probably too much-though I don't swear in front of my gran. We adapt to every situation.
hate unnecessary clean
Everybody starts with a clean slate only altered by unnecessary hate.
this-is-me take-me
This is me. Take it or leave it.
