I wonder if Mel B was sue to perform at York!? I also don’t get why Geri didn’t join her for a song they could have done something like say you’ll be there!

 

Love that sporty and baby did stop it’s such a crowd pleaser!

There's only really two options for guests to jump and sing, which is either 2 Become 1 or Stop. The other Spice songs and her solos are all in medleys so it would be really hard for Geri to come up to Say You'll Be There as it would need quite a bit of rehearsal for the timings, etc. However, she totally could have jumped on to do 2 Become 1 or even Stop really. Certainly, it would have made the Brighton show a million times better!

I think Geri is keen to avoid 2 become 1 since it is a tricky one for her to sing tbh. But yeah Stop definitely!

Ricky and Melanie C have been quite friendly over the years so I guess there is some kind of connection there behind the scenes.

Emma and Ricky did a cover of Slade's Merry Christmas Everybody :mellow:

Glad it all turned out well in the end for Emma.

I think Geri is keen to avoid 2 become 1 since it is a tricky one for her to sing tbh. But yeah Stop definitely!

 

I think it's more that Geri hasn't performed live since the 2019 and that was with tonnes of rehearsals. I don't think she'd be comfortable with doing an improv performance, but that's just my feeling. She's a perfectionist and only does shows that get rave reviews.

:yahoo:

I am crying laughing thinking of her GAY performance where she was like a rabbit in the headlights :lol:

The backlash to that performance (and the poor reception of the single) was probably what made her quit performing and making music...

The George Michael tribute song, I forget its name now, was such a really weird angle to sell a song from. Yes they were friends (but hadn't seemed very close the last few years of his life) and just felt a bit forced.

To be honest if that is how she is going to perform then really she should give up, because if she did that on a big stage somewhere or on TV she would be crucified! Where was the confidence of the girl who did Oman or Tickled Pink? Her performance just a few years earlier of IRM and Phenomenal Woman at stand up for Cancer were excellent she sounded good, she actually had some dancing which she managed well... such a change!

 

I'm not really sure what she was thinking with AIC to be honest, I don't want to be cynical but I feel it was very much an attempt to get a hit which was a little crass to be honest.

Who knows what goes on behind the scenes, but the change was quite brutal for sure. It didnt really change then, it changed during before the Half of Me era (remember that???). Her performance at some TV event of that in Australia was slandered precisely for the same reasons. Then the single underperformed spetacularly in Australia, the only place where it was released in the first place.

 

Then she got that deal with Warner (I think) and this was the only thing that came out from that.

 

I don't think it was meant to be a huge hit, just a simbolic nod to her friend. She even got the singers who did the backingvocals for George and producers that were afiliated with him too, it was meant to be a cute homage.

 

It just didn't land at all, sadly. And her performance skills were no-where to be seen either.

 

So who knows what happened... Maybe with the passage of time and how difficult it became for her as a solo act after Passion, she never really recovered her confidence from that, and slowly detiriorated in terms of performance?...

 

I wish she would do the Tickled Pink events more often. That was her putting it together, right?... Maybe she could have done a few more, one each year, where she would invite others to perform. I could see her doing really well at things like that
