"Beautiful Intentions" is the third solo album from former Spice Girls member Melanie C. The first on her self-funded label Red Girl Records after parting ways with her old record label. The album has been Melanie's labour of love for a year, and she previewed several tracks on her Barfly mini tour in June 2004 before going into the studio to record the tracks. Following the release of the first single, "Next Best Superstar", the album was released on 11 April2005 in the UK and some international countries. Later the album was re-released in some countries (with a new song on it - "First Day Of My Life"). Melanie stated in an Australian interview that she was pleased "Beautiful Intentions" has outsold her previous album "Reason". "Beautiful Intentions" has received Gold certification in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. In Portugal it has gone 2x Platinum (9 weeks at #1).
