Yasss Spice Girls!



Ideally I'd like the top end of the results to consist of the following songs: 'Spice Up Your Life', 'Viva Forever', 'Goodbye', '2 Become 1' & 'Who Do You Think You Are'. wub.gif As for album tracks, 'Never Give Up On The Good Times' will surely do well!

NUMBERS 31 - 44:
031. 'Walk Of Life' [AVG. 6.25]
032. 'Wasting My Time' [AVG. 6.18]
033. 'Voodoo' [AVG. 6.05]
034. 'Baby Come Round' [AVG. 6.00]
035. 'Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now' [AVG. 5.97]
036. 'Bumper to Bumper' [AVG. 5.84]
037. 'Sleigh Ride' [AVG. 5.81]
038. 'One Of These Girls' [AVG. 5.80]
039. 'Outer Space Girls' [AVG. 5.57]
040. 'Oxygen' [AVG. 5.34]
---
041. 'Time Goes By' [AVG. 5.32]
042. 'Get Down With Me' [AVG. 5.24]
043. 'Weekend Love' [AVG. 4.95]
044. 'Spice Invaders' [AVG. 2.78]


Basically. This is the section where there should be little shocks and not an awful lot to say. I did however think that 'Voodoo' would be better received! Ouch. I also love their Christmas cover of 'Sleigh Ride', but thankfully, 'Christmas Wrapping' is higher! 'Spice Invaders' manages to be one of the worst ever rated tracks to come from a rate, that I've seen on here. Yes, it IS that abysmal.

NUMBERS 21 - 30:
021. 'If U Can't Dance' [AVG. 7.30]
022. 'Tell Me Why' [AVG. 7.26]
023. 'Denying' [AVG. 7.25]
024. 'Christmas Wrapping' [AVG. 7.19]
025. 'The Lady Is A Vamp' [AVG. 6.98]
026. 'If You Wanna Have Some Fun' [AVG. 6.97]
027. 'Last Time Lover' [AVG. 6.68]
028. 'Something Kinda Funny' [AVG. 6.63]
029. 'Right Back At Ya' [AVG. 6.32]
030. 'Take Me Home' [AVG. 6.27]


Ignoring the singles, to the surprise of nobody, that's every 'Forever' track out now. 'Tell Me Why' is Buzzjack's favourite off the album. 'If You Wanna Have Some Fun' & 'Right Back At Ya' follow suit and get respectable top 30 showings. Three tracks from the record breaking debut album 'SPICE', make a showing. 'If U Can't Dance' starts the section at number 21 and it's one of the most memorable performances from their tours, for me. I've not seen them live, but I've seen them when they've been on TV! 'Last Time Lover' & 'Something Kinda Funny' decide to stand by their 'SPICE' soulmate, and also turn up in the top 30. The rather brilliant 'The Lady Is A Vamp' is possibly one of gayest records you're likely to hear, but it's so infectious. Very classy and sultry! There is another Spice cover and it's for the Christmas classic, 'Christmas Wrapping' which makes a rather decent showing at number 24!

ohmy.gif Why ?
Very retro style sound. BEST SPICE GIRLS SONG wub.gif
"Oxygen" and "Denying" are very underrated.
Please, not "Viva Forever" sick2.gif at number 1.

Did I rate the songs?

Time Goes By and Get Down With Me way too low and underrated!

Tell Me Why and The Lady Is a Vamp should be top 20 too!

At number 20 is the decent, but not "amazing" 'Naked'. A very sensual song that sees the Spice Girls LITERALLY get "naked" during their live performances, sat on chairs, backwards.

Number 19 is 'Do It'. One of the feel good, pop anthems taken from their second, record breaking album 'Spiceworld'. It really wouldn't have surprised me had this been made a single at any point. So feel good, catchy and just so good!

In at number 18 is the first of 13 singles to appear, 'Mama' and I'm very disappointed it seems to have averaged the least out of their singles! It's beautiful and under appreciated, I've always preferred this to the other A-Side, 'Who Do You Think You Are?'. Such a heart felt and meaningful song that most of us can relate too. The cheese is a part of it's charm.

At number 17 is the 2nd of 13 singles to appear and it's the highly anticipated, 2007 comeback single 'Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)'. I remember being psyched for this song, and remember feeling ultimately disappointed after it. I for one am not shocked it ruined their top 3/10 streak. So nothingy. Mel C's part though is the true saving grace *.*

Number 16 is the smooth and classy 'Saturday Night Divas'. It's use in 'Spiceworld: The Movie' was great and the scene it accompanies is one of the (many) memorable moments from that film and sees the girls having fun and dressing up as former icons and even having a go at dressing up as each other!

Kick starting the top 15 is the Pepsi promotional single 'Step 2 Me'. The only way to get this single was to collect ring pulls from cans of Pepsi and send them off (it was, however included on the Japanese version of the 'Spiceworld' album). The live performance of it shocked me and my brother and sister when we were younger as we saw Geri hump the floor.

We have an album track taken from their debut album, 'Spice', up next. 'Love Thing' defines the term "album filler", not that that is a bad thing because it's a decent track, it's just hard to ever have imagined it as a single. So they did the right thing by leaving it alone as an album track.

Up next at the unlucky number of 13 it's 'Move Over'. Definitely one of the stronger album tracks from their second album, 'Spiceworld'. The "generation next" line was used as a tag line for their Pepsi sponsorship. One of the edgiest, pop songs they've done.

At number 12 is another single and it's the beautiful, understated, R&B-tinged, pop ballad 'Let Love Lead the Way'. For some reason it reminds me of the Destiny's Child song 'Cater 2 U'. I don't know why, either. This was used as a double A side with 'Holler' and gave the girls another (and became their last) number 1, back in 2000.

Just missing out on a top 10 placing, due to that DAMN -1, is 'Stop'. This is how a simple, catchy, retro, pure pop song should be made. There is no denying that it's one of their most memorable hits, despite it being the first (of just TWO!) of their songs to miss the number 1 spot. As well as catchy, sing along lyrics you need a catchy, dance along dance routine and I'm not ashamed to say that I STILL know the routine. Who doesn't tbh?

So the top 10:

'2 Become 1'
'Goodbye'
'Holler'
'Never Give Up On the Good Times'
'Say You'll Be There'
'Spice Up Your Life'
'Too Much'
'Viva Forever'
'Wannabe'
'Who Do You Think You Are?'


Which song will reign supreme?
Are you happy with the top 10?
Any surprises?
How many more songs will SceneofSIXCrimes, justinthomas92 or ahenryf08 give a low score too?

'Headlines' beating 'Mama' is a truly WTF MOMENT Buzzjack. Disappointing. sad.gif I love 'Mama'.

'Move Over' should be top ten, by FAR their best album track, which is why it got my 11, even though there are singles that are better. Hoping for a 'Viva Forever', 'Spice Up Your Life', 'Say You'll Be There' and '2 Become 1' top four. 'Holler' needs to make the top ten and 'Stop' needs to go soon, definitely my least favourite single from the first two albums. (still good though).

HA! Totally wrote that post before seeing 'Stop' and LLLTW had been announced. So happy 'Stop' missed the top ten, and very surprised! ohmy.gif

I think 'Viva Forever' is going to win, so much universal love for it. Although I think it picked up a few low scores which may ruin it sad.gif Great to see 'Never Give Up On The Good Times' make the top ten. 'Who Do You Think You Are' and 'Too Much' to go out next.

I really can't rank them as my order changes all the time, but this is how I'd group them. Any of those top four winning would be fantastic.

'Viva Forever'
'Spice Up Your Life'
'2 Become 1'
'Say You'll Be There'

'Goodbye'
'Holler'
'Never Give Up On the Good Times'
'Wannabe'

'Too Much'
'Who Do You Think You Are?'

How is 'Mama' so low ohmy.gif

Absolutely killer top 10 though and it has to be 'Viva Forever' for the win.
