We've been discussing the Spice Girls' third studio album 'Forever' a lot recently, so it seems like a good time to do a survivor for it!






Please vote for your least favourite song in the poll!

Well, the 'drip' sound effect in 'Oxygen' is grating and it really taints the song for me, but if you overlook that (which is difficult) it's a good ballad. I like how the four of them get their own verse. I'll be voting for it soon.

However I'm voting 'Time Goes By' first. It suffers from feeling like it goes on for longer than its near 5 minute run time, and it's not the most eventful of songs... it's a bit dull. There's some lovely vocals though.

That was surprisingly hard actually! I nearly went for Time goes by but the vocals always save that song for me.

I think weekend love is the ropiest song Mel B’s rap is a mess!

Wasting My Time

Always hated how this song was structured.

It always felt like something Destiny's Child would've passed on.

You think THERE'S MUCH MORE BETTER songs on Forever!

Lol wtf?

Posted by: Jay ☆ 7th May 2020, 06:42 PM

I am of course referencing one of the (grammatically incorrect) lyrics in Mel B's rap

How did I not click on such a bad fan!

Posted by: Jay ☆ 7th May 2020, 06:45 PM

Aww it's not too late to demote you as a mod, we can just consider this as being an unsuccessful trial period

I'll spread rumours that you're a nightmare to work with

The level of DISRESPECT on Wasting My Time here You bitches don't deserve good things, clearly!

I vote for Time Goes By. It's boring. The only saving grace for it are the vocals, but it just sounds like an unnecessary track on a great album. It goes on for too long...

Posted by: Jade 7th May 2020, 09:03 PM

Voted for 'Weekend Love' too!

'Wasting My Time' because it sounds too much like 'Get Down With Me', but without Mel B.

I'm sure at one point Melanie C is ad-libbing over herself.

I do actually like the song. Forever is so frustratingly close to greatness.

Has Mrs Corona really damaged your memories that much??!!!

Time Goes By

It’s too long and it’s basically a Mel C record!

Posted by: Spiceboy 8th May 2020, 09:07 AM

It's the vocals on TGB they are so gorgeous it elevates the song higher than it deserves!

Posted by: Michael Andrew 8th May 2020, 09:36 AM

It's true that Time Goes By is long and fairly uneventful. But I find it a pleasant listen.

There are great vocals from every girl. And it's not overly similar to another track on the album.

FYI I’m cancelling the survivor if Wasting My Time goes out first!

Posted by: Spiceboy 8th May 2020, 10:45 AM

That's OK I'll continue it when WMT is kicked out

As a strange coincidence, I just saw a new edit of 'Wasting My Time' on Trace Adam's facebook:

He's rearranged some ad-libs. But I don't think he's added any Mel B ;-)

It's what this forum deserves!!

Posted by: Spiceboy 8th May 2020, 08:50 PM

After your 90% comment about Melanie C, if WMT get's through I'm voting it out next round!!!

Posted by: Mr.X 8th May 2020, 09:08 PM

Can you not appreciate talent?
