Spice Girls • General Discussion
Spoilers were major in the 90's. And Posh was always on a trend... literally in this case. ;-)

Favourite Spice Girl
Emma!!! For her talent and personality. Her vocals are supreme. Melanie C is second place for me right now. I used to love Geri back in the day for her absolute fearlessness.

Least Favourite Spice Girl
I voted for Victoria as I never really understood her musical direction as a solo artist (apart from 'Let Your Head Go', which came too late in the day). Geri was the personality of the band in its heyday. And she's written some amazing pop songs (and I reckon a large part of the Spice Girls material). She was a genius of her time. But time moves on.

Spice Girls | Ultimate Group Package [Round 5]
The 'Holler' video is slick. It was amazing to see what the Spice Girls could do with all that budget and CGI.

Kylie Minogue | Ultimate Kylie package
Into The Blue Crystalize I Was Gonna Cancel For me, it was close between 'Into The Blue' and 'Crystalize' for the video vote. 'Crystalize' doesn't give me enough Kylie. But I think ITB fails to capture the energy and emotion of the song, and it's too lazy and straight-forward for a lead single.

Spice Girls | Ultimate Solo Era [Round 10]
For me, it's because it brought us 'Mi Chico Latino' - a true pop classic.

Emma Bunton - Chart Discussion Thread
If she charts higher than 'Version of Me' at #25, I'll be over the moon. I'd expect all the spices to have a very similar fanbase. So I find the mid-week very encouraging!

Rank the outtakes ● 5 Years of Kiss Me Once
What a shame. I found a mix on youtube, but I don't know if that's the original and best. Glad 'Sparks' got a release of some kind though!

Emma Bunton - 'My Happy Place'
With regards to making a critically successful album, I'd agree with the review too. But I don't think that's what she was going for. It's a personal project and her voice brings warmth and brightness to every song. I think her vocals are on top form. For me, there's plenty to be happy about.

Emma Bunton - 'My Happy Place'
I might be imagining it, but the clip of 'Here Comes The Sun' on Emma's insta seems more polished than the version I heard earlier in the campaign. The words 'Little darling' are cleaner somehow. https://www.instagram.com/p/BwB0HSEn1IU/ Now I'm excited again.

Kylie Minogue | Ultimate Kylie Era
I revisit 'X' much more than 'Aphrodite'. I find it more creatively inspiring. Definitely a mixed bag, but a very interesting listen.

Melanie C • General Discussion
Each to their own. I thought it looked a lot of fun. I don't think it was supposed to be slick or expensive. Just a bit of a giggle. Great way to send up the (at that point) stalling reunion. And I always love a little recognition of the LGBT fanbase.

Melanie C • General Discussion
The Mighty Hoopla performance looked great. I was gutted to have missed it. So I'll probably go to one of these. Just hope Melanie's doing more than a DJ set.

Rank the album ● 5 Years of Kiss Me Once
I can't listen to 'Beautiful'. The vocoder sections are so drawn out and painful. For me, I think I dislike it more because it was so close to something glorious. If only the production hadn't gone so awry. I don't even mind Enrique.

Emma Bunton - 'My Happy Place'
Sure there are some un-produced sounding vocals (2B1, HCTS) but happy to take them for what they are. If those tracks were on a live album, they'd be great. It's a hastily put together project, but I always suspected that. I'm still blown away by the quality of BPDS and TMT. And very excited for 'I Wish I Could Have Loved You More', 'Don't Call Me Baby' and 'Emotion'.

Spice Girls | Ultimate Solo Era [Round 6]
Beautiful Intentions Hot Reason I actually don't mind the 'Hot' cover now. But I remember being a child and finding it wildly inappropriate. I couldn't ask my nan to buy it for me for Christmas. Big fan of body positivity but I think the 'styling' was a too sexy in this instance. Hard to choose between 'Reason' and 'This Time' for singles selection. But 'Yeh, Yeh, Yeh' had much more lead single potential than 'Here It Comes Again'. It's a shame the campaign had lost momentum by its eventual release (and Melanie was unable to perform the song due to injury). If only things had been different :-(

Mel B • General Discussion
Daily Mail have framed Geri's official statement as being addressed towards Mel B, even though it's clearly about their salacious article above (see reference to Mother's Day). Unbelievable. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/artic...Girls-tour.html It's no wonder the general public can't tell truth from fiction anymore.
