yeah it’s definitely not a generational thing- I just think Spice Girls have far far better- it’s definitely not a bad song at all I just think they’re exceeded it many times
:clap: :clap:

This has to be a joke!? You don't see the appeal of the Spice Girls but stan Little Mix? Make it make sense

 

I always feel incredibly bewildered when Viva Forever gets hated on (by the 4 people on the planet who feel this way, who all happen to be on BuzzJack funnily enough :o There’s no one else who feels the same xox). I just can’t imagine being unable to appreciate such a beautiful song! :( Or at least be able to tell that it’s a great song, even if it’s not really your thing. To think it’s outright bad and feel a passionate hatred towards it, well that completely mystifies me.

 

A generational thing is such a poor excuse tbh especially in this thread when you're supposed to listen to all the songs. The Spice Girls songs sound no more dated than Madge, Britney and Gaga songs do I mean Just Dance (as fab as it is) screams 2008/2009 and the early 80's Madonna stuff is incredibly dated but don't sound any less amazing. :wub:

 

The point being made is that someone stanning Little Mix who have strong powerful 'girl power' anthems and are full of personality but then says Spice Girls do nothing for them is incredibly ironic because let's face it Spice Girls are THE prototype for that kind of girl band. Without them the likihood of LM existing (as Simon used a Spice Girls format for them) is slim. And I say this as a huge Little Mix, Girls Aloud, Sugababes and Spice Girls fan I love a good girlband me :wub:

 

Jesus Christ, what is with ya'll trying to police someone's opinion? I grew up when the Spice Girls were at their peak so the 'generational excuse' is moot. I just wasn't a fan of their material as a kid and don't care for it now.

 

I don't see how the fact that I'm a Little Mix fan is even relevant? :lol: The mentality that I need to stan every girlband that preceded them is reductive as f***.

Really? Artist forum suggestions paraded around and not one suggestion for these superstars:

All of this. :clap:

 

Saying that the likes of Little Mix wouldn't be in the position they are if it weren't for Spice Girls, etc doesn't automatically mean all of their songs are any better, or that they should be universally adored by absolutely everybody?

 

It has absolutely nothing to do with a generational gap - I enjoy some Spice Girls songs, others I don't (I've even voted for Spice Girls more than once in this already). I don't see why liking other girl groups as much more more-so just because they arrived a few decades later is frowned upon, but oh well.

OK three forums have sent my favourite songs from the respective artists :mellow: Spice Girls, Taylor and Rihanna all sent the best songs those artists have done for me. What a blood-bath!

 

Spice Girls - Viva Forever

Taylor Swift - Delicate

Britney Spears - Everytime

Rihanna - Rehab

Madonna - La Isla Bonita

Lady Gaga - Alejandro

Kylie Minogue - The One

 

 

Britney Spears - Everytime

Spice Girls - Viva Forever

Little Mix - Reggaetón Lento (w/ CNCO)

Lady Gaga - Alejandro

Taylor Swift - Delicate

Kylie Minogue - The One

Katy Perry - Wide Awake

 

Also for the record, I agree that I find the Viva Forever disdain shocking! Everyone's welcome to their opinions, of course, but it's just so effortlessly classy, beautiful and poignant. Definitely worth some brownie points even if it's not to your taste.

 

For me, it loses out on my top song of the round only because Everytime is a huge all-time fave! :wub:
