Melanie C returns with her second single “What Could Possibly Go Wrong?” ahead of the release of her ninth studio album ‘Sweat’. The track features a rush of shimmering synths and builds on a joyful club ready energy designed for movement. Recorded in Stockholm with collaborators Klas Åhlund and Nea, the song provides a distinctive Swedish sound. This latest offering follows the release of the title track “Sweat” via Virgin Music Group as the artist explores a self assured and playful era.
The singer describes the new single as a tongue in cheek look at taking risks and trusting oneself to take a leap. She shares that the creative team had a lot of fun discussing the light and shade of music and life during the recording process. This record serves as a fusion of her established pop legacy and her recent evolution as a professional DJ. The songs reflect the raw energy of her early years dancing through the rave scene.
The upcoming album ‘Sweat’ stands as a celebratory collection of joy and community recorded between London and Los Angeles. Melanie C notes that she has done a lot of soul searching and now wants to get people dancing again. This project captures the spirit of a generation that found itself on the dance floor among friendly strangers. The music provides a vibrant testament to the resilience and happiness found within dance culture.
Melanie C previously rejoined the Spice Girls for a landmark reunion tour in 2019 which included three sold out nights at Wembley Stadium. Her connection to electronic music deepened in 2018 through performances at institutions like Pacha and Café Mambo. She finds joy in the ability to mix and rebuild sounds just like in life. The new material unites her history as a pop icon and an underground DJ into her most euphoric record to date.
