Schizophonic (Geri Halliwell album)
''Schizophonic'' (stylised as Schizö-phonic) is the debut studio album by pop singer Geri Halliwell. The album was released after her split from popular girl group the Spice Girls. The term ''schizophonic'' is a portmanteau of the Greek words ''schizo'' ("split", "divide") and ''phonic'' ("sound"), and also seemingly a play on the word "schizophrenic" and the musical term "schizophonia".
It produced four singles, all of which saw commercial success in the UK—"Mi Chico Latino", "Lift Me Up" and "Bag It Up" reached number one, while the first single "Look at Me" peaked at number two. As of 2010 the album had sold 3 million copies worldwide. Reviews for the album were positive.
==Background==
In 1998, Halliwell left the Spice Girls due to depression and differences between the group.〔''On This Day'' (30 May 1998): "(Ginger leaves the Spice Girls )". BBC News.〕 The next year, she launched her solo career and released her debut album ''Schizophonic'', with the lead single "Look at Me", produced by Absolute and Phil Bucknall. "Look at Me" was followed by further number ones at the UK Singles Chart "Mi Chico Latino", "Lift Me Up", and "Bag It Up". The album itself reached a peak at number four in the United Kingdom, and sold 600,000 copies there, making it 2× Platinum.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BPI Certified Awards )〕 With only a radio single, ''Schizophonic'' debuted at number forty-two on the ''Billboard'' 200 before dropping out within the next month. The album was eventually certified Gold, distributing over 500,000 copies. ''Schizophonic'' ended up selling around 2,300,000 copies worldwide, and remains Halliwell's biggest selling album to date.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Geri Halliwell Sales around the world )〕
