"This Time" is a song by British singer-songwriter Melanie C. It was released as the fourth and final international single from the album, This Time, released in the United Kingdom the same week the Spice Girls re-united for the world tour in Los Angeles, California.

Written by Adam Argyle, the single was released on 12 October 2007 in Germany, Switzerland and Austria and on October 22, 2007 in UK. Melanie re-recorded this track for a new single version. The single features a B-side track called "We Love to Entertain You" which was used for 2007's Pro7 Starforce campaign in Germany.

As she started singing the chorus of the song "This Time", she stood up and followed the light that was directed to her. In the second verse, Melanie was seen lying on the floor and she stood up once again to follow the light. As the bridge of the song kicked in, Melanie turned her back on the light and started running. At the end of the music video, the light faded away as Melanie got close to the light.
