Posted October 14Oct 14 V is for Voodoo.'Voodoo' titled album tracks by both the Spice Girls and Adam Lambert in the late 00s, and in my opinion, both deserved the singles treatment!Spice Girls released their 'Voodoo' as one of two new songs included on their 2007 Greatest Hits album, alongside woeful ballad 'Headlines' (how that was selected to be their comeback single instead of the fun, up-tempo 'Voodoo' is beyond me). This song really captures their heyday energy in a way 'Headlines' could never. Two years later and American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert released his own 'Voodoo' as part of his underrated debut album For Your Entertainment. In contrast to the Spices' upbeat track, Adam's is a lot more in tune with how you'd imagine a song titled 'Voodoo' to sound: dark, supernatural and a bit eerie.But which is your favourite 'Voodoo'?Soundclash: Noughties Namesakes history:A is for All I Ever Wanted (Basshunter vs Kelly Clarkson)B is for Baby Boy (Big Brovaz vs Beyoncé & Sean Paul)C is for Call My Name (Prince vs Charlotte Church)D is for Don't Tell Me (Madonna vs Avril Lavigne)E is for Emergency (Paramore vs Jordin Sparks)F is for Free Me (Emma Bunton vs Joss Stone)G is for Gravity (Sara Bareilles vs Pixie Lott)H is for Hey Baby (DJ Otzi vs No Doubt)I is for I Turn To You (Christina Aguilera vs Melanie C)J is for Jump (Girls Aloud vs Madonna)K is for Kids (Robbie Williams & Kylie Minogue vs MGMT)L is for Lately (Samantha Mumba vs Lisa Scott-Lee)M is for Miss Independent (Kelly Clarkson vs Ne-Yo)N is for Nasty Girl (The Notorious B.I.G. vs Destiny's Child)O is for Over and Over (Nelly & Tim McGraw vs Hot Chip)P is for Perfect Day (Kelis vs Cascada)Q is for Quicksand (Britney Spears vs La Roux)R is for Rehab (Amy Winehouse vs Rihanna)S is for Shine (Take That vs Booty Luv)T is for Thank You (Dido vs Jamelia)U is for Up (Shania Twain vs The Saturdays)
October 14Oct 14 They are both good voodoos.I went for Spice Girls' because it fits on more occasions and events than Adam Lambert's (you know, it's October and that means... 🫢). Edited October 14Oct 14 by AllStarBySmashMouth
October 14Oct 14 Adam Lambert's!Spice Girls' is rather limp, although fun I 'spose. Still much better than what they actually released as the single!
October 14Oct 14 Worful ballad, Headlines!!!!! :cheeseblock: Someone should have told them they already had too many ballads!!!Anyway, their Voodoo is better, but their writing had clearly seen better days. It was like a Girls Alpud or Satuedays B side.
