I had single sales on CC too before it got deleted dry.gif
I'll try find.


I loved them so much. They were the first band I ever got into when I was 8.
I would love to see them come back - I had all the CDS, the film, loads of merchandise stuff like the figures and omg the photo album laugh.gif
Emma Bunton was my fave back in the day but her solo career is quite dull - Geri makes fun, camp, catchy songs but it's Melanie C who has the voice and can actually sing & write to perfection as demonstrated by her amazing songs 'Northern Star' etc

And they are the best girlband - and who cares if Bananarama and The Bangles came first? Or that everyone on this board humps Girls Aloud & The Sugababes?

The Spices were pure genius - they made girlbands successful again- before them, they'd only had limited success in a markert dominated by Borezone & Take That and oooh soon as the Spice Girls make it big worldwide, All Saints & B*Witched begin to crawl out of the woodwork and have#1s too. I seriously think the girlband format would've died long ago had it not been for the Spice Girls.

1. Whats Your Thoughts On The Group? - Them and Kylie basically got me into music with 2 Become 1 and Spiceworld being my first single and album that I bought wub.gif out of everything I liked when I was really little it's only them (and Green Day laugh.gif ) that I still really like and listen to on the ocassion.
2. Renunion? - I'd love to see it but I'm not sure how successful it'd be unsure.gif
3. Whats Your Favourite Member? Emma wub.gif
4. Who's Solo Career did you enjoy the most? Victoria was the only one I ended up really taking notice of as I bought everything she'd released but I bought one single from Emma and Mel C as well.

Screw Westlife you little gimp.
The Spices were huge all over the world and even cracked America.
Remind me how well $h!tlife have done in the states?
And I have the sales from UKMIX to prove that The Spice Girls are better. They've sold way more across the world than $h!tlife could ever imagine sugar smile.gif
