BuzzJack Music Forum _ Spice Girls _ 4 - Least Favourite: SPICE GIRLS SINGLE

Posted by: Jonjeur East 🎷 Nov 27 2015, 12:00 AM

Next it's round 4!

On the way out this time, is the 2000-tastic 'Holler'. A song which is widely considered one of their worst singles (so it's no surprise that it leaves us as early as this). I actually really love it, but it really does pale in comparison to the rest of their singles catalogue. I found it extremely underwhelming back in 2000, especially as it was hyped to be their big return. It did wonders for them though as it did actually become a big hit. It got them that elusive number 1 comeback single and had just as much longevity as the rest of their number 1's! The less said about the album though, the better...



Eliminated:
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%]

Time for round 3! Go, go, GO!

Mama

*edit - on second thoughts, can I change that to 'Too Much'?

Posted by: Jonjeur East 🎷 Nov 27 2015, 12:04 AM

Do I vote 'Wannabe' or 'Who Do You Think You Are?' next?

I really don't know what to do! cry.gif

ALL of these are 8 out of 10 and every single one of them feel like they shouldn't be out so early! sad.gif

EDIT: Ok, I went for WDYTYA in the end. FFS.

Too Much, that, Mama and Goodbye are the only not so good ones left here .

Viva Forever seems to be picking up a worrying amount of votes already sad.gif

sad.gif Holler is so good, people. Shouldn't be as low as 11th! Just you guys wait until Michael finds out!!

Ok I'm over it. Sort of.

I've voted for Mama!

Posted by: Cody Cranberry Nov 27 2015, 12:55 AM

"Viva Forever".

Went for Too Much this time, as has been said it's close between that, Mama & Goodbye, but this one is let down a bit by weaker lyrics.

Posted by: Maurice Horan Nov 27 2015, 06:14 AM

Mama! I see people voting for Viva Forever, are you out of your mind?

Posted by: Joe. Nov 27 2015, 07:16 AM

Goodbye!


RIP HOLLER </3

Posted by: Simon. Nov 27 2015, 08:06 AM

Omg it's already really hard, I'm torn between 'Stop' & 'Mama' they are the next 2 I go to least, I'll have to say 'Mama', this really is serious.

Getting so difficult, but went for 'Mama'.

Posted by: pippa Nov 27 2015, 11:23 AM

Mama.

Posted by: Cauldron Nov 27 2015, 11:50 AM

Holler is easily in their best 5 singles. Mel C's vocals are lovely.

Posted by: Robot Nov 27 2015, 12:03 PM

Mama sticks out as the weak link here but it'll be a bit more of a struggle once it's gone, for sure!

Posted by: 🌚🌚🌚 Nov 27 2015, 12:19 PM

(I'm surprised stop doesn't have more votes I'm gunning for that next. Then it'll be almost impossible..)

Posted by: *Tim Nov 27 2015, 12:21 PM

Mama is amongst their best wtf. #VoteStop

Posted by: Jonjeur East 🎷 Nov 27 2015, 12:23 PM

'Stop' is their best single though....

Posted by: James1987 Nov 27 2015, 01:02 PM

Voted for Stop but I can't believe people are voting for Mama as I think this is easily one of their best singles rolleyes.gif

Posted by: Joe. Nov 27 2015, 01:09 PM

Stop is iconic. I'm in disbelief that Stop has more votes than Goodbye.

Posted by: Kuki Sanban Nov 27 2015, 02:31 PM

Mama is my favourite Spice Girl song of all time cry.gif

Posted by: Ja˙ Nov 27 2015, 02:44 PM

I've been a member on (perhaps) the biggest Spice Girls forum on the net, DenDen, for the past 13 years (thousands of Spice fans in one place *.* ) and the general consensus there is that Mama is their worst single. I do find it interesting to see how the singles are perceived on BuzzJack, given that I assume the majority of you would not consider yourselves to be hardcore Spice Girls fans.

These are the orders their singles placed in, in various rates/survivors/games I've hosted on that forum in recent years:

Mama consistently last place, with Headlines & Let Love Lead The Way always making up the rest of the bottom 3 songs. Wannabe & Too Much usually in the bottom 5. Viva Forever almost always in 1st place! The rest of the singles seem to bounce around with each different game.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the Top 10 order on BuzzJack is going to be!

Posted by: Joe. Nov 27 2015, 02:48 PM

Very interesting Jay! I'm very shocked Goodbye did so well in the first few, I always thought that was considered to be one of their weakest, and Too Much I always thought was more iconic. Well I never.

Posted by: 🌚🌚🌚 Nov 27 2015, 03:11 PM

well they're right with viva forever 💕

Posted by: Dobbo Nov 27 2015, 07:24 PM

Too Much for me now.

Posted by: Jade Nov 27 2015, 07:28 PM

Now the obvious bottom 3 have gone, I think my least favourite is 'Goodbye'.

This is really great,considering DenDen has a awful taste when it comes to other artists. (bloody hell it's 13 years ago since i signed up there next week.)

Same. I was gonna post and chastise people for voting for Mama, but after Goodbye this is REALLY impossible. Things are gonna get vicious in here...

Posted by: T Boy Nov 28 2015, 09:04 AM

I'd say that Wannabe was actually the weakest track left.

Posted by: mr_pmt Nov 28 2015, 01:35 PM

'Wannabe' has dated really really badly, I can only properly enjoy it if I'm drunk these days.

Posted by: Scherz Nov 28 2015, 02:38 PM

Mama.

Goodbye, Viva Forever & Too Much are up there for me, so I hope we get rid of a few uptempos soon.

Posted by: Jonjeur East 🎷 Nov 28 2015, 03:22 PM

Closing sometime tonight. Last minute boostage! biggrin.gif
