Never Give Up On The Good Times - Track 5 on the ‘Spiceworld’ album 🧡

 

A fan favourite but never released as a single, the group were seen writing the song during the Girls Talk! documentary in 1997

 

Fun fact - The song is the group’s most streamed non single track with over 10 million streams on Spotify

 

Written by Spice Girls, Richard ‘Biff’ Stannard and Matt Rowe

Saturday Night Divas is a groovy one :music:

 

BUT Never Give Up On The Good Times is where it's at *.* probably my favourite album track from them!

I said this wasn't my fav album track but I consider this to be an unofficial single :)

 

Amazing song. I wish there was a remix of this one.

The live arrangement at Earls Court was EVERYTHING

I have mixed feels about this one. Sometimes it’s the best thing since sliced bread and then other times I can totally do without it.

I also love the last line of the chorus with Mel B’s ad-lib. Wonder why it was taken out of the final mix?

I'll have to listen to the Istanbul version, I don't remember this!

 

 

Completely agree that Never Give Up on the Good Times is a huge Spice Girls highlight and a major missed single opportunity! Such a fun and joyful track, deserved to be a hit in its right... :wub:

Move Over - Track 6 on the ‘Spiceworld’ album ♥️

 

Move Over was used in the Spice Girls Pepsi ‘Generation Next’ advert in 1997 and 1998

 

Fun fact - The Move Over Pepsi clip first premiered on U.S. TV in June, 1997 and eventually aired on TV and in cinemas in over 90 countries 🌎

 

Written by Spice Girls, Clifford Lane and Mary Wood and produced by Richard ‘Biff’ Stannard and Matt Rowe

Move Over could have been so much more! The live arrangement however, was *chef kiss*

 

One of the things Simon Ellis got right!

Move Over :w00t: It´s better in the live version

Iconic :cheeseblock: The Pepsi advert is always quite a rush to watch, so much Spice Girls energy!

Do It - Track 7 on the ‘Spiceworld’ album 💜

 

Do It was one of the most ‘girl power-esque’ anthems on the album - proclaiming that it was important to push the boundaries and break the rules for the right reasons 📢

 

Fun fact - This is my favourite non-single track and instantly reminds me of the Spiceworld scene with the bus zooming around London 🇬🇧

Do It :wub: We all know this is Mel Cs fave album track :D

Will always remind me of the Pepsi ad. But love the Istanbul version. Amazing energy.

Do It :wub: We all know this is Mel Cs fave album track :D

 

Loooooool!

Don't care how Melanie C feels about this one, it's a BOP! :w00t: Was great to see them perform it in 2019. I really like the lyrical sentiment, it's empowering!

Love Do It. My favourite SW album track. Always reminds me of the movie and happier times of 1998

Denying - Track 8 on the ‘Spiceworld’ album 💙

 

Denying was only performed live during the European and American legs of the 1998 Spiceworld Tour

 

Fun fact - The song was originally called ‘Ain’t Fooling Nobody’

Denying :heart: This came alive on the Spiceworld Tour

I know a lot of fans consider this to be a weaker moment on the album. It's far from that for me! I feel like out of all the tracks it has a little bit of 'Spice' album DNA to it... more of an R&B feel to its production. Love it!

 

Isn't this the song that Geri performed wearing rollerskates on the Spiceworld tour? :lol:
