Geri looked a bit lost in that performance. Also Melanie C's top hat really bugged me in this and the Children in Need performance!! Otherwise it was great to see them on TV again together. biggrin.gif

Enjoy! Watching it was quite a nice surprise actually as it showed me the tour in a bit of a different light from what I remembered.

A few things of note on this renewed viewing:

- They nailed their 'main songs' performances. I even appreciated watching Too Much and the reprise this time pirate.gif
- Viva Forever and Holler steal the show for me. Absolutely stunning performances, greatly staged and choreographed!
- The chemistry of the 5 together is so special isn't it? I dont think Spiceworld2019 missed it that much but the 5 are really the real deal!
- The music arrangements were stunning and LIVE yahoo.gif Some of their best arrangements ever, all with simingly renewed energy. Very very good musically! Last year's tour could have benefited with the same level of care for its music ah angel.gif
- The design isn't as bad as I remembered it, actually. I like that the stage creates different atmospheres and stagings for different songs. It isnt anything groundbreaking but it works well
- It's so clear to me now how they have established a really good touring career: absolutely being superstars, all of them. All of them eat that stage, chewing every single moment. And it makes it all seem quite amazing actually. You can tell the crowds love it, and they really nailed it. They always seem to do, when on tour! Kudos to them. Other girlbands also have/had excellent touring careers - Girls Aloud, Destiny's Child, Little Mix are all touring giants - but they bring it up a notch. No wonder they are now doing Stadiums w00t.gif

Question - are they the first girlband to do a Stadium tour at all? Or at least a 100% sold out one? I can't image any other girlband doing stadium tours, definitely not at the level we saw last year w00t.gif

And the bad:
- Headlines' live version definitely makes the song better but it is still completely pointless as a performance.
- The solos and celebration medley still absolutely ruin it for me. Vicky's is just awkward, Mel B's is bad, Emma's is just kind of there, and Geri is so obviously miming its hilarious. Mel C is fine, I guess...
- Who Do You Think You Are not being live sleep.gif
- The costumes. Im not a fan still. Those opening costumes were terrible, bland and boring blink.gif
- If You Can't Dance. Still bugs me that they ruined it, completely ruined it... What a shame, for one of their best songs.

OMG now im going to go over there and get a life and a glass of wine thanks! Quarantine is killing me wacko.gif

YES YES YES YAASSSSSSSS w00t.gif

I agree with pretty much every single thing... except I do like Emma, Geri and Melanie C's solo's (and Victoria's lol wish she sang a song though). I feel their solo parts fit as part of the story and they are a huge part of the Spice Girls story... just wish Mel B had done I want you back or Feels so good OR if she was gonna do a cover at least do Word up!?

Also I like the WDYTYA and Viva Forever costumes wub.gif And I love Melanie B's giraffe print costume at the beginning.

Also what you said about them as a 5 is special is so true... although I've watched Wembley today aswell and I have to say the 4 piece with Victoria is vastly superior she has so much more stage presence than Geri wub.gif
