Posted February 2, 20187 yr At 1:38 of one of the Spice's biggest flops, but ironically one of their greatest songs, we have the BEST EVERRRRR Star Trek reference in pop: gFBWbH5CeRE She sings, 'We can go ooon and ooon/ Doin things we thought we would never doooo/ And I won't energise' :wub: Can we please show some appreciation for THIS BOP, their love (or at least VB's?) of Star Trek with an appreciation lyric for it, and that video though??

February 3, 20187 yr Is this a piss take? I mean, that is clearly not the lyric. (If this is a piss take, rofl and lmao etc.)
February 3, 20187 yr This lyric has legit caused confusion within the fan base since the song came out, lol. "We can go all night long Doing things you thought you would never do And I won't _______" Greatest Hits booklet says "And I won't tell you now". The Forever booklet doesn't even include a lyric for that part. There's been loads of other suggestions from fans (seriously, there was a poll on DenDen with nearing 50 options :') ), but two popular ones are "And I won't tell na na" and "And I won't tell no lie".
February 3, 20187 yr First link is filtered A cappella from the original song, next three links are live performances: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shs_ltUqAxg&t=1m16s
February 3, 20187 yr Author Although repeated listens make it sound like it COULD be and I won't tell my dad, but that wouldn't fit with the futuristic Star Trek Holodeck video, or futuristic robo-vocals at that bit. Not sure why Mel C is singing, And I won't tell anyone in the background just after though :/ Also, it's we can GO ON AND ON, not all night long
February 3, 20187 yr She CLEARLY says 'And I won't tell Baghdad', making a controversial yet passionate case for the UK's war on terror in the Tony Blair era.
February 4, 20187 yr ^ :rofl: I really wish I'd saved the suggested lyrics on DenDen, some of them were hilarious. :( I don't think yours was in that list though, Leww x
February 4, 20187 yr That also wasn't on the list, hun. :( One of the (very tongue in cheek) suggestions was "and I want to empower women" :heehee: (seriously VB says this all the time in her interviews about her fashion!)
February 4, 20187 yr Author 'And I want to empah-weeer' 'And I won't energ-iiise' Kinda similar tbh!! Can see why they thought so :o
February 4, 20187 yr My fave line in Holler at the time (it still is) was: Holler holler holler c'mon c'mon holler holler holler holler c'mon c'mon
February 4, 20187 yr Author My fave line in Holler at the time (it still is) was: Holler holler holler c'mon c'mon holler holler holler holler c'mon c'mon Oh my that has always been my favourite part of the song too, but the best line is the Star Trek energise one of course!
