Thank you to Voodoo for this suggestion - let's have a listening party for Spiceworld 25! The full original album and all the bonuses. Let's have a Spicy time together! :cheer:

 

How about 5pm UK time? I don't think I would be able to host it later than that, unfortunately! But please do give me feedback. The time and maybe even the date is subject to change; I'd love as many of us as possible to take part! It would be quite a long session, seeing as the full album lasts just under 2 hours.

 

I'm in, if anything will be intrresting reading people's comments on each track from disc 2 #oh

Argh I dont think I can until much later, but do it and I will do my own listening party and commentary afterwards!!

:lol:

I’ll be there

That's great! :cheer:

 

And like Mr. X, if the time isn't convenient for you but you'd still like to listen and comment when you are able to do so, that would be fab. :wub:

 

As things stand this'll still go ahead at 5pm! That is in 6 hours and 40 minutes from now. :sunglasses:

I will listen at an later point this week.

1 hour to go if you'd like to join :D

Anyone around? :heart: Starting at 5:05pm!

I am here Jay :)

I am here Jay :)

Hello :cheer: Glad you're here :wub:

 

Having to push back the start time to 5:10pm but I'm completely ready to go then!

Spice Up Your Life - Track 1 on the ‘Spiceworld’ album ♥️

 

The lead single from the album, ‘Spice Up Your Life’ was the group’s fifth consecutive UK No.1 single and sold an incredible 321,000 copies in its first week

 

Fun fact - The single was inspired by a visit to Mexico in May 1997, which inspired the song’s “Latin feel” according to the group 💃

 

Talking about the song the group said: “We always wanted to do a carnival tune and write a song for the world.” 🌎

I always remember their National Lottery performance of this. It genuinely lives as rent free in my mind as Brits/Olympics etc

HERE

What a classic / album opener :cheeseblock: They returned with a BANG. Also adore the music video and everything about the song.

 

(:hi: I haven't purchased the anniversary edition vinyl etc, because I have the original on vinyl already, but here to stream and celebrate for this masterpiece album. Also seen a lot of the bad vibes about the bonus tracks/live versions, so I'm intrigued to see what the mess is about :P )

Aww thanks, Jay for using the image

 

My favourite single along with Too Much. Such a great opener.

Spice Up Your Life is the most iconic spice girls song after Viva Forever and i love it :wub:

I always remember their National Lottery performance of this. It genuinely lives as rent free in my mind as Brits/Olympics etc

Same goes! That National Lottery performance was everything, such high energy and colourful... little 9 year old me was LIVING for it and kept replaying the VHS recording.

Stop - Track 2 on the ‘Spiceworld’ album 💜

 

Stop was the third single released off the album and reached No.2 on the UK singles chart. Despite being the only single not to reach No.1 during 1996-2000 it is now the second most streamed song on Spotify behind ‘Wannabe’

 

Fun fact - One of the inspiration’s for the song was the group's feelings towards fame and their frustration with their management, at the time, who they felt were overworking them during the making of Spiceworld the album and the movie
