    Just wanted to share something quite special (and a bit heartbreaking, to be honest). Yesterday, all the MTV music channels across Europe were shut down. MTV 80s, MTV 90s, MTV Hits, Club MTV… the lot

It's been noted that the King of England has approved a limited series of UK coins in celebration of the Spice Girls. That's wild!! It has not been announced officially yet but you can see the official note from the monarchy's meeting:

For a British band, thats pretty huge. They will actually be on coins lol Pink Floyd is the other group being celebrated.

From this, and since two of them already have MBE's, I could see them getting some sort of group MBE or something like that for services to music.

(after this, lets definitely abolish the monarchy ok?)

Some more information on the Spice coins:

They will be featured (represented by sillouettes and signatures) on specially made coins. There will be 5 individual coins for each denomination - £200, £100, £25, £10, £5 x2 types, £2 and 50p.

These will not be in circulation (which is a shame) but you will be able to buy them of course. The whole lot might come to around £2000 alltogether. It will be limited so it will be a collectors' item. Kind of like the stamps thing, but more exclusive I guess?

GET THOSE COINS GIRLS (literally!). I bet the Royal Mint paid a hefty fee for the rights to do it

You can now officially download the Christmas in Spiceworld videos on iTunes, in HQ ♥️

and yes, they count as sales 👀

The coins thing is pretty cool, hopefully I could justify owning something from the collection.

    yeah agree, I might get a couple of things

    Emma and the art of NOT actually answering the questions related to unreleased music...

    The only actual song mentioned was We're Gonna Make It Happen but she did say they have loads unreleased music in the vaults selena

    Plus she was unsure if Move Over was actually on the album lol.. and the '1-2-3-4-5' mess... Oh Emma...

    A whole episode of basically nothing lol

    That entire 17 minute video was an eye roll. No valid information was discussed.

    I can understand artists who have huge music catalogs forgetting certain details here and there, but Emma…..the group only has 31 album tracks.

    It makes a lot of sense now why we got so little for the 25th anniversary editions.

    I love it when artists have something of an encyclopedic knowledge about their own work. For instance you could ask Mariah Carey about anything from her 16 albums and she'd certainly be able to talk extensively about writing sessions, who she worked with, when it happened, how she felt at the time. She definitely has knowledge about her "rarities". So it does disappoint me a bit when quite the opposite of that is the case, and that's definitely the case with Emma regarding Spice Girls. I know it was fundamentally a job, and she's not necessarily a fan of herself, but gosh... her recollections about the music are so surface level. drama That could have been an interesting video but unfortunately not.

    USA Masked Singer will be doing a Spice Girls songs only episode on 25th February

    Quite random but good record label/publishing managers deal there 😉 Would be good to see the songs regaining popularity in the US again

    The Sun is reporting that the Netflix Drama about them has been axed due to tentions between the band, specifically as Geri is refusing to sign on because of drama with Mel B.

    This is actually one of the biggest mistakes they could be doing. Having Suzanne Mackie, producer of royal drama The Crown with a script being written by Jack Rooke, who won a Bafta for Channel 4 comedy Big Boys, is HUGE DEAL that could have been amazing to watch.

    Take it as you wish... but nothing looks particularly promising for this year...

    At this point it doesn’t look like we are getting anything this year. If they don’t release Woman on some sort of compilation this year, I highly doubt they will ever release it. A career spanning compilation album or updated greatest hits with a rarities disc would be the best home for Woman.

    I love them but I don’t expect anything. They don’t care fans and their music itself.

    Even if we got Wannabe 30 digital release with Bumper to Bumper, that will be miracle.

    Geri is not letting this one go…it’s been seven years, come the f*** on

    They just can’t get their act together. They could attract a whole new generation of fans if they put some effort into their legacy. Off the top of my head……

    1) Dive into the archives and get everything sorted out so it’s available in high quality: pictures of photo shoots, unreleased music, tour footage, videos of old interviews, etc. Their social media should not be using low resolution pictures or videos.

    2) Get the Spice World movie on a popular streaming service.

    3) Release a documentary which focuses on the impact of their music. Interview current singers, etc. A key point of the documentary should showcase how much creative input they had with their music.

    4) Release a few of the best unreleased tracks on some sort of compilation album. Get a few popular producers to remix a few of their singles and maybe some fan favorite album tracks.

    5) Commit to doing a world tour. They would probably gain a ton of interest in their music just by touring countries they have never toured before.

    6) Release a documentary which focuses on how their fashion choices made such a cultural impact. Release a comprehensive coffee table book which contains high quality scans of all their photo shoots. The book should include unseen pictures of famous photo shoots.

    7) License more of their music to movies, TV shows and commercials.

    8) Make a biopic movie.

    Sadly it seems impossible for the girls to do any of that... because that would mean they would have to actually spend time and care on their legacy. They don't care enough.

    Just late last year, Chris on Spice Circle mentioned that they have no management right now, they left Simon after 2019 and then the management that came in during Spice25 left too as they couldnt handle the girls' mess and constant changing/cancelling plans... It doesnt bode well for the 30th anniversary plans that we are keep getting promised lol

    I hate to say this but at this rate, they won't realise what they've got until one of them passes...

    Sadly this is going viral all over twitter and people are blaming Geri and talking about a lesbian situationship going on for 30 years... it's actually wild and the ONLY way would be for them to make amends and do a proper come back...

    It would be hilarious if it wasnt so sad for us lol
