Reason

Reason is the second studio album by the English singer Melanie C. It was released on 10 March 2003 by Virgin Records. A follow-up to her solo debut Northern Star, she worked between 2001 and 2003 on material for the album. Taking her music further into the rock pop genre, Melanie C collaborated with both returning and new producers to record around 40 songs for Reason, including Marius De Vries, Peter-John Vettese, Gregg Alexander, Rick Nowels, Guy Chambers, and Rhett Lawrence. The album received mixed to negative reviews, with critics often calling it overly polished, inconsistent, and lacking the energy or individuality of Melanie C’s debut. While some noted moments of strong songwriting and a more mature sound, many still found it bland and less inspired than her earlier work. Commercially, it debuted at number five in the United Kingdom but quickly fell down the charts and saw only moderate international success, performing best in Germany and Scotland while charting lower across much of Europe and in Australia. Despite this, it was eventually certified Gold in the UK.
