The final two songs battling it out for Spice Girls single supremacy!

Who has won?

'2 Become 1' vs. 'Viva Forever'.




Has 'Viva Forever' managed to defy the odds and manage to win the contest despite being very nearly eliminated several times? Or is '2 Become 1' just too much to overcome?





02:

'2 Become 1'

In 2nd place is the gorgeously stunning but rather raunchy '2 Become 1'. This became the girls 3rd UK number 1 and first of 3 Christmas number 1's in a row. It's one of their signature hits and is one of the songs that is often fondly remembered by all, it was largely untouched/had little votes right up until the last round or so. It was a monstrous sized hit that was inescapable at the time. The performance below is stunning and obviously it's not without it's usual Victoria charms and the note that Emma holds at 2:30 <3




01:

'Viva Forever'

So here we have it. Before I'd even thought about doing this poll, I thought if someone was to do this poll I'd have thought this would be quite the clear winner... however, just a few rounds in and it looked like this would be struggling even to go top 3! It was so bizarre as I always thought everyone on here at least "liked" it/wouldn't want to start voting it until about round 6! So with all that going off, I really questioned whether it'd actually win. But here we are and here is your WINNER of the poll! Not without it's struggle 'Viva Forever' actually managed to successfully win. To the displeasure of those who have NO HEART or fully functional ears! Such a beautiful, timeless girlband ballad. A song that actually makes me cry on occasion!

Also; for those who think the girls can't sing... please watch the below video. Their vocals are wonderful! PARTICULARLY both Mel's harmonising together right at the end <3 <3 <3 One of my all time fave performances wub.gif




Eliminated:
01st: 'Viva Forever' [32 Votes | 45.71%]
02nd: '2 Become 1' [38 Votes | 54.29%]
03rd: 'Spice Up Your Life' [30 Votes | 40.00%]
04th: 'Say You'll Be There' [23 Votes | 36.51%]
05th: 'Stop' [27 Votes | 46.55%]
06th: 'Wannabe' [23 Votes | 38.33%]
07th: 'Goodbye' [18 Votes | 30.00%]
08th: 'Who Do You Think You Are?' [15 Votes | 26.32%]
09th: 'Too Much' [25 Votes | 39.06%]
10th: 'Mama' [26 Votes | 41.94%]
11th: 'Holler' [31 Votes | 46.97%]
12th: 'Let Love Lead the Way' [30 Votes | 45.45%]
13th: 'Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)' [36 Votes | 51.43%]

A great final 2 and I do "Viva Forever", despite voting for it a few times, but honestly glad it won and after listening to again, it is very magical.

A little thank you to every single one of you who took the time out to actually vote, comment, rant and whatever else in this poll! It's been so much fun and such a joy to host, it really has <3

Athough not ideal results in places, it's turned out to be one of my fave polls. Whether that's because I hosted and I'm being biased, I don't know kink.gif But I'd like to think that even if someone else did it, having the place to express my love for these girls is something I adore doing wub.gif

YASSSSS, not just their best but one of the greatest ballads and most beautiful songs of all time. Takes me back to the limbo time between finishing primary school and starting secondary school <3

I can't believe 'Viva Forever' actually made it! Absolutely thrilled, potentially the best single from a girl group, and a hell of a lot better than the overrated '2 Become 1' (still a 6 or 7 out of 10 but that doesn't count for much when you look at the rest of their singles discography).

Brilliant winner, one of the best girl group songs of all time for sure <3 (between that and Pure Shores? thinking.gif ), I wasn't thinking it would win when it was getting votes so early but glad taste prevailed biggrin.gif

Very good results overall (though Wannabe/Who Do You Think You Are went far too early, my favourites after VF!), thanks for running this Jon!

Never seen the hype with Viva Forever myself, certainly didn't expect it to win out of their singles but these results aren't too bad. Just a shame Spice Up Your Life didn't win.

This was such a shit poll. How dare you call yourselves Spice Girls fans? mad.gif

Eh winner, utterly disgusting results. Probably my least favorite poll yet. Mods, what kind of ship are you running here? This type of debauchery shouldn't even be ALLOWED on the site. Someone put this thread on quarantine.

This poll has utterly destroyed what the Spice Girls are about: bringing the power in female girl bands with light-hearted goodness. And you all had to RUIN THAT with this poll.

Shame on all of you. Shame.

Just for the record I am boycotting all "Least favorite..." Polls in the pop forum from now on.

best winner for me, I'm actually surprised it's quite a universal fav I always thought it was just my own nostalgic particular time in my life memory song. thanks for hosting jonjo it's made me realise just how much I actually stan for them without realising. though it has driven a momentary wedge between 152wild.

Viva Forever wub.gif Can't wait to see this being live performed next year (and the rest of the singles ofcourse) if they do it as a 4 piece i hope Geri takes over Victoria's lines.

I do and don't want this reunion to happen in equal measure. I would of course sell a kidney for tickets but it just won't be the same without vicky b pointing her way around 😥
