I will have to pick "Spiceworld", because it contains "Viva Forever", "Too Much" and "Viva Forever", their best three singles.

Geir, don't ever change.

The List Is Humor At Its Purest

Geir is a black belt master of the 'triple'.

Spice up your life was certainly one of the best songs of the 90's. It never ceased to bring down the roof, or floor or whatever was being danced on, right JB?

Underrated Spice non-singles:

Never Give Up On The Good Times (largely for the ribbiting frog noise in the mix)
Outer Space Girls (basically, Backstreet's Back, except done by the Spice Girls)
Naked (Surely predicted that Emma Bunton would have the bestest solo career, non?)
Denying (sort of funky in a rather subdued way)

At various times, any of the singles off the first two albums is my favourite SG song evah, but lately, I think it has to be "Say You'll Be There", but Spice World is the better album overall.

I'm listening to Mel C hollering over the outro to "Who Do You Think You Are?" at the moment, and it's great. It's such an aerobics song (in the best possible sense obv)!

I saw once, Asda doing a chuckout of the final Spice Girls album for a pound each. They must have had 200 copies there.

Next day, they'd all gone. Make of that what you will.

Based on that, I'd say you're turning into the groutfox.

i can't choose, i love them both. AND "FOREVER" IS REAL GOOD TOO but no-one seems to know.

― mrs emma bunton, Wednesday, 24 November 2004 19:21 (nineteen years ago) link

i mean imagine having to choose between 2 become 1 and viva forever. maybe i would choose spice world because it is the soundtrack to the greatest movie ever made. but on the other hand, wannabe is the best pop song in the history of humans. oh, umm, ah, umm.

The attitude in this thread was sorely needed in that bloody albums poll.

Gear sez:

Spice Girls Spice 127 points, 10 votes

SPICEWORLD by a long way. Probably I'm influenced by the film, which blew my mind the first few times I watched it. Which reminds me, why didn't "Leader of the Gang" make it onto the album.

Never Give Up On The Good Times
doesn't this sound like Matthew Wilder" Break My Stride"

I don't know how "Stop" didn't get any love in this thread, but that's the best one. It's on SpiceWorld and it follows the also great "Spice Up Your Life".

Spiceworld>Spice.

― brontosaur, Thursday, 17 August 2017 20:10 (six years ago) link

Spice > Spice World, methinks. It'd be a tougher call if we were just talking about the singles, but I think the album tracks on Spice are better on the whole. The last track on Spice World is particularly awful.
