ong information

With "I Turn To You", Melanie achieved her tenth #1 UK single as a songwriter, equaling the record set by former bandmate Geri Halliwell. With "Holler", the Spice Girls' final UK #1, Melanie became the only female songwriter to write and/or co-write 11 #1 UK singles. Melanie held this record until Madonna achieved her eleventh #1 with "Hung Up" in 2005, and then lost it when Madonna achieved her twelfth #1 with "Sorry" in 2006.

This song was featured in the film "Bend It Like Beckham", where it gained popularity, and was covered by the metal band Machinae Supremacy in their "Webography" and also by the rock band Wig Wam on their 2004 album, "667...The Neighbour of the Beast".

"I Turn to You" eventually became part of the set list for the Spice Girls Reunion Tour.

Music video

The video was filmed on the island of Ibiza (Spain) and features shots of her dancing in Es Paradis nightclub. Melanie has crimped blonde hair extensions in this video and there are constantly changing scenes of her dancing (in Esparadis) to sitting on a cliff to lying in blue water, possibly the sea or a swimming pool. The video ends with her and groups of people walking up the top of the cliff at sunset. The video was directed by Cameron Casey.
