Every single one of their albums has a couple of songs, at least, that seem largely forgotten either by the group or by the general public.

They are never used for any promo, are barely included in tour set lists or even social media posts. They are not well streamed at all (apart from Saturday Night Divas but that hasn't been performed since Istanbul!)

So which ones are your favourites? you can pick multiple songs!

I am not including Voodoo because it is on their greatest hits, not one of their main albums. I am not also using Something Kinda Funny, Do It or The Lady is a Vamp because those songs have appeared on most tours (and please, we have had enough, ENOUGH! of those songs on tour!!)

When I mean underrated is an overall understanding of the song by everyone involved - the band, their team and the fans.

SPICE

Last Time Lover - Never performed, never acknowleged by the band at all.

Naked - hasnt been performed or used by the group at all since the 1998 tour and seems largely forgotten since they became a 'pop nostalgia band'

SPICEWORLD

Saturday Night Divas - Performed ONCE at Istanbul, and beautifully so, it has never been performed since. It is used in Spiceworld the movie in a great pivotal moment and fans often use it, refer to it as a highlight of Spiceworld, but the band ignores it completely. It is also their SECOND most streamed album track, so it seems silly they never use it at all...

Denying - Performed during the European leg of the Spiceworld tour, it quickly got scrapped once Geri left and it is never used in anything promo, social media, whatever. The fans love it though, there are quite a few of fan-made videos out there using the song!

FOREVER

First of all, all of Forever is underrated so I could have picked ANY track from it really but....

Wasting My Time - often considered a sort of marmite song, where some fans really love it or hate it. It comes on after back-to-back dance songs in the middle of the album, which some fans point towards it being a bit of a drag and that it is too similar in sound to the song that preceeds it - Get Down With Me.

Time Goes By - often mentioned as the worst album track of their career (before Voodoo was released lol). The Spice Girls seem to love it, with Mel B and Emma claimed to be one of their favourite on the album, and Mel C even saying it should have been a single... the fans mostly hate it though lol

Oxygen - Often forgotten by all, only shown love by the critics at the time of release and Emma randomly mentioning it as one of her favourite songs during her My Happy Place campaign. It only recently crossed the 1million streams mark on Forever, the last album track to do so.

So which is your favourite?!!

    Went for 'Oxygen' such a stunning and underrated ballad that was easily one of the best tracks from an otherwise uneven 'Forever' album.

    Has to be Oxygen for me, Forever was very much a disappointing album but this was part of the strong side of it.

That's a hard question! I'll pick one from each album:

Last Time Lover - them not performing this song at all is a huge shame! Wouldn't it have been cool if they'd had time to do a small venues tour in 1996 for Geri for them to build up their live performance skills in advance of 1998's world tour cool2

Denying - some fans dare to say it's the worst song on Spiceworld, and they are cows x

Wasting My Time - always sounded like a bop to me, never found it boring, I wish it had more love in the fanbase!

I voted for Denying and Wasting My Time. They are excellent songs that I wished they would care for and do it live again. They all sound devine in the studio tracks and I think they would translate really well to a live setting! I gather that if they had done a Forever tour in 2001 as planned, Denying probably would have fitted really well on that set list!

Also dont forget to actually vote @-Jay- lol
