I looked at every Spice related single that reached the UK Top 100. Using a points system (100 points for a week at #1, right down to 1 point for a week at #100), I ended up with the following list, which shows their strongest chart run to the worst. No prizes for guessing which song is at #1! *.*

 

 

Key:

 

Spice Girls

Emma

Geri Halliwell

Mel B

Melanie C

Victoria

You can look back at their chart runs here: http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=203971 (Note: I've used the Official Charts Company Top 100 chart runs, not the Hit Music charts from 1996-2001).

 

Any surprises? I either forgot or didn't realise that Out of Your Mind had the longest chart run. :o Also that was a surprisingly lengthy stay in the chart for If That Were Me, it's the highest placed song that missed the Top 10.
