I don't, but maybe that's because you're an administrator. Have you voted yet?

Seriously though, I like "Spice Up Your Life". It's kind of "spacey" (perhaps "starry"Smile).

And that's the only tune I'll ever give them credit for...
 
Here's the enhanced reprise of 'Spice Up Your Life' that wraps up their concerts for this 2007/8 Tour: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-aoAjGdZLo     Less spacy and more into the "fiesta" thing.
 
       Enjoy!!!

More likely because of the regional location.
 
No, I'm afraid I have not voted, I can't offer an informed opinion. Now if you'd asked for my favourite Spice Girl....Embarrassed

Here’s the videoclip to 'Wannabe':

 

And here you’ll find some interesting variations in the lyrics:

So, here's the music video that led me to buying the first two Spice Girls' albums at once a couple of days later: early February '98 -
Fate didn't give it the UK no. 1 that it deserved, IMHO, more than many other SG singles.
 
I just couldn't resist that candid retake on the Motown signature swing. Like I said in an earlier post, I was a reluctant SG fan until then, when I came out of the closet (the only closet I've ever known...).
 
      Kind regards.

Yea I guess that is the one but now that I think about it I like their slower/balled stuff better.

And the second video took all the attractive qualities of the spice girls and threw them out the window! To me that is lowbrow and pretty repulsive, especially when there probably are thousands of children in the audience. That is something you would want to avoid anytime, more so if your British and the world perceives them in a class system. I am disappointed with them (not that I had a high expectation anyway).

This is one reason to keep Geri as my favorite Spice Girl: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcG66QgsnUo

For the two of you, too (are for everyone else, OK?), here's a wickedly refashioned version of the finest SG ballad ever:

Got to be 2 Become 1, lovely chord change in the chorus.

Such a guilty pleasure. long and very funny interview with them on Radio 2 the other day conducted by Russell Brand. Then an excerpt of them live. Oh dear, but not one of those girls can sing at all... LOL

To celebrate the fact that this thread has welcomed more than 500 visits (and maybe we’re heading for 600!), here’s some historical footage from the European leg of their first world tour.-

 

The classic choreography for ‘Denying’: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRhPIvdgDj8

The following song ‘Too Much’, bearing a somewhat bigger punch than the studio version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKoHzv9b46w

They had a nice build up in the songs. Wannabe was a nice song to start with: playful and catchy. Say You'll Be There was slightly better and 2 Become 1 let them sound mature, and is my favourite song.

Most of their hit singles are good pop music. Nothing more, nothing less.
