Wow. She cannot sing
One of the reasons they were so successful is because they were fresh and different to anything else around at the time. They definitely paved the way for the girl groups that came after them.Geri was the most media savvy and absolutely shameless self promoter and the least musically talented of the five. When you look at the their early stuff it was sheer charisma and bolshiness. They are less musically accomplished than girls aloud or little mix - but they are also less produced and more authentic. As authentic as a put together girl band could be.
Yep, and after them it all became saturated with stage school kids who had oodles of media training and were boring AF.It’s only looking back you see how unfiltered they were, all to their credit.
Exactly, they were really the first girl band of that type. Geri cannot sing at all, neither cN posh. I remember stories about how awful geri was at learning the minor dsnce routines they did but she just pushed through and managed to. Look at the video of wannabe, how random their outfits are, how unpolished it all is. I don't have children but if I did I would rather they grew up listening Nd watching that than current girl bands like little mix that all look totally "flawless"One of the reasons they were so successful is because they were fresh and different to anything else around at the time.

My niece, 6, and her friends are riding the latest Spice Girls wave. I've taught her the Wannabe dance. It's not sexualised, it's all about Girl Power and friendship and zig-a-zig-ah!
Well said. Was all a gimmick and marketing ploy. I always thought “zig-a-zig-ah” was an orgasm referenceGirl Power was a buzz word to sell the Spice Girls. Nothing wrong with it, but lets not pretend it was for the benefit of women.
May be but could you have ever imagined one if girls aloud using the word feminist? Nowadays everyone uses it, but when geri describes (albeit wrongly imo) thatcher as one, it was pretty shockingGirl Power was a buzz word to sell the Spice Girls.

I know I thought I’d got lost and clicked on a different thread guess both SATC and AJLT are inactive though!Not to be rude but can someone make a Spice Girls thread so we can keep this about SATC lol
Ooooh hopefully not for much longer, somewhere on the horizon we all have season 3 to look forward to hate watchingI know I thought I’d got lost and clicked on a different thread guess both SATC and AJLT are inactive though!
