Passion (Geri Halliwell album)
Passion is the third album by
British pop singer
Geri Halliwell, released on
June 6,
2005 (see
2005 in music), in
Europe,
Asia,
Latin America and
Canada. It has not received an
American release.
Passion has been in the making for four years. Released on June 6, 2005, the album met a lukewarm reception. Originally planned for release after the second single in early 2005 ("Love Never Loved Me", continuing the trend of dance tracks), Virgin sent Geri to Sweden to record new tracks. The result of which was "Desire" and "Surrender Your Groove", which knocked "100% Pure Love" and "Set Me Off" from the final cut. In that time, Geri's image was harmed by her documentary "There's Something About Geri", which resulted in a strong media backlash. "Passion" debuted at number forty-one, selling 5,432 copies in its first week and 15,000 in total in the UK, the album also debuted at numer thirty-nine in Brazil, where it sold 3,000 copies, 150,000 copies of the album were shipped around the world.
Like its predecessor,
Scream If You Wanna Go Faster, the album did not fare well with the public or critics.
Geri fulfilled her contract with EMI with this release, being the only Spice Girl with 3 solo albums with a major label.
