And everytime I notice this thread I get "Spice Up Your Life" stuck in my head.

I love the Spice Girls. They were one of the biggest pop icons of the 90's. Hate them or what but they had damn good writers and knew how to market themeselves. I still love listening to their albums especially when I work out. "Spice up your Life" is an awesome workout song.

People made fun of me all the time for liking them, which is I guess understandable, seeing how most of their fans are young girls. But, man... I am so happy they are going back on tour!! I acutally saw their last tour in 1999. Me and 2 of my friends all in our 20's drove all the way to Tacoma to see them. And it was totally worth it. There's a reason they have one of the biggest fan bases in the world.

I can't believe the way that some people in this thread are coming out of the spice girl closet.

I wonder if any of them saw Eddie Murphy hiding from Scary while they were in there?

In all honesty, it is a great cd. "I Turn to You" is a pretty amazing song. Look at you with the autographed copy

Some of you guys actually listened to their music? Eh, they were just some hot chicks dancing around and posing in videos, I don't think you were supposed to actually take them seriously.

Here's the CrusaderPi ranking of Spice Girls in the order in which I'd like to nail 'em. (1997 ranking in brackets)

1. Baby (1) Sill love her best of all. Don't entirely know why, but I'm too old to change or care about that. If I was being objective Emma would probably be 2 now and 3 back then.
2. Sporty (3) The yummy mummy of my dreams. A little huskier then 10 years ago, but I don't mind that one bit.
3. Ginger (2) I've always had a thing for a dirty redhead. And that will definitely not change.
4. Scary (5) I considered putting her 3, but she looked like trash when she was pregnant so this could be a mirage.
5. Posh (4) Jenny Craig + crack + a week long vicodin bender = Posh. I don't like anything about that right now. Even defying gravity wasn't enough to move her into the 4 spot.

How can you not love the Spice Girls? They were HUGE, along with the Backstreet Boys.

It all depends on whether you're a Karaoke fan or not.

The guy who was taunted for seeing Usher deserves a heartfelt apology from all of you.

When I was around 9 years old honey I dont think I gave a crap if they were good singers or not it was all about entertainment and they sure did entertain. Do I know better now??? hell yes but they were a huge part of my childhood, so no I dont owe anyone an apology.
