Rediscovering the Spice Girls

[Lacero]

Maybe I was drunk last night, but I spent the better part of the night compiling my entire collection of Spice Girls with full ID tags, re-encoding my collection to 128 kbps AAC and searching online for album art. Apparently, iTMS only carries 300x300 album art, and not the usual 600x600.

So I'm listening to these songs and they're bringing back a ****** flood of good memories. Screw whatever anyone says, the Spice Girls rock!

So I got all three of their albums, Spice, Spice World, and Forever. I'm now going to search online for all their respective solo acts, so I can build like the biggest and baddest Spice Girls collection ever put forth by any courageous person.

Any other Spice lovers, please share you experiences.

The Spice Girls are making a resurgence, I swear to God! I can't be the only person feeling it.

/currently playing 2 Become 1 - Spice Girls <--- this track ROCKS! OMG. So melodic.

Rediscovery implies losing them in the first place. Spice Girls have always rocked. Disclaimer: I am mad.

Maybe I was drunk last nightI hope you were drunk. Very, very, very drunk.

[Danksi]

People like you need to be locked up! ;)

[Lacero]

Viva Forever the Spice Girls!!! *burp* and I'm perfectly sober at the moment, too.

I'm loving them too much, now. Fantasticimo! No one can take them away from me.

Just the beginning. To whet your appetite....

Lacero-Spice has a really nice ring to it. Maybe a Mod can change your username ;).

Very impressive ... five stars all the way down. I do not curently have any Spice Girls represented in my iTunes collection, but after what I picked-up yesterday at the library, that may change. The CD's from the Grateful Dead left me as ungrateful as I can recall in quite some time.

I'll pray for you my son.

[ColdFlame87]

They're taking control of people once again im telling you!! :eek: A few friends of mine, including my gf, have been recently obsessing over them. It can get annoying when you're the only guy in the car and your gf and her friends are blasting the spice girls in your car!! :rolleyes:

Mmm-mm. Shakira and... Ricky Martin as well.

And to think, I used to respect your posts.....:eek:

Perhaps the Lacero we know and have learned to appreciate has been abducted by alien and left this odd changeling behind :p

Although there's still the question of why there are all the Spice Girls CDs in the house to rip :confused:

Perhaps the whole Lacero enigma is just a very elaborate viral marketing campaign for a Spice Girls Reunion :cool:.

I am as proud of my Spice Girls collection as I am of my Westlife... well, maybe not AS. But close.:o

Holy boston baked beans.. it's The Apocalypse!!

[~Shard~]

This entire discussion makes me ill. I try and stay away from this type of pop music as much as possible.

But I am sincerely happy for you Lacero. :cool:

[katie ta achoo]

I'm glad I'm not the only person who listens to embarrassing music. :D

I'll admit it, I have both of the 2ge+her albums... yeah, the fake boy band MTV made.
:o

..I should dig out my spice girls, but they're on cassette!
If you wanna be my lover, gotta use oh-ess-ten...
:rolleyes:

[ibook30]

Be careful, that stuff will give you cancer.

I think we all listen to embarrassing music from time to time, nothing wrong with that! For me, it's juts not the Spice Girls... :o ;)

Ah, don't worry about it, I was just listening to some Robbie Williams myself. :eek: No, not really...

[iGav]

hahahahahaha I was a one of the designers who did their website... enhanced CD's too. ;) :eek: :D

I did Mel C as well... :p actually... I've still got Mel C's old site that I worked on archived with *exclusive* interviews, video's and music clips. hahahahahahahahahaha.

[yellow]

I did Mel C as well... :p

I bet you did, you dirty boy.

[m-dogg]

Oh my god, the Spice Girls are like, so 1995.

This is 2005 (almost 2006) - Get with the program, this is the era of The Pussycat Dolls!

[brepublican]

I'm more interested in the wallpaper on your desktop ;)
*Chuckle* Quite the eye... Let me know if you want it.:cool:

And eh, speaking of Mel C, has anyone heard 'Beautiful Intentions'? Anyone?:p

Nah, just mad. Once you get to know him better, you'll understand better. ;) :cool:

This is 2005 (almost 2006) - Get with the program, this is the era of The Pussycat Dolls!Ah... but with Take That paving the way with their 'reunion' tour, I confidently predict we'll be seeing quite a few more of the old boy/girlbands reuniting in 2006. It's only a matter of time before the Spices decide they could use a bit of extra cash... ;)

[macrlz9]

yeah, i friggin love the Spice Girls!, I saw them July 27, 1998 in concert. i have every single album import and solo as well. i have an autographed pic of Melanie B from when she was in rent (the play) when i saw her in NY. i have all of the dolls posters everything. my phone ringtone is wannabe! i also have about 5 video tapes and i also have spiceworld on dvd and vhs, i think i got y'all beat!

[Lacero]

Yep. *raises hand confidently into the air*

Some good tracks on it. I heard she funded this album herself.

Still trying to decide which album art to go with for my Spice Girls Ultimate Collection™.

37599

I like the first and last ones, but the middle one is the official one. Decisions, decisions. I might end up just putting all three in, but then which one do I make the main art that shows up on my iPod? Argh!

[asif786]

ahh, the Spice Girls. I used to love them (well, I was 11 years old I guess).

I may just have to pick up their first album (Spice) - I didn't like the others. (Ahh, the advantages of iTunes..no worries when buying embarrassing music ;))

Who was your favourite? I always liked Ginger Spice :cool:

Dude, go with the middle one. Do yourself a favour and grab the 600x600 version off of iTMS UK:cool:

It looks too rude, I couldn't possibly ask for it.......pm me :D

[bigandy]

rediscovering the spice girls? i'm still annoyed they were discovered!

at least they haven't done a take that and attempted to re-form....

then hell really would have frozen over. many people say that was when apple chose intel in june, i believe it was a few weeks ago when take that announced they'd tour again.

[neut]

This thread makes me feel sick inside.

Lacero ... i gagged when i saw your playlists. My throat is going to burn all day. Ever thought of DJing at the local rainbow club?


peace | neut

[Chappers]

Slightly off topic but does have a Spice girl in it (Not for dial up 56K unless you don't mind waiting, also maybe not for our younger audience)

Am I the only one who gets this? It's genius! :D

Oh man, I'm thinking a MR Apple-themed Spice Girls covers band would be fantastic!

[Lacero]

I had a dream about them last night. :D
nice dream. I hope to have another one tonight!
I was their manager, cheerleader, soothsayer, and responsible for getting them back together for a fourth album. Everyone too, including Ginger Spice.

Everything was planned in detail too; their public appearances, selecting the musicians and engineers to create the album, holding press conferences, fielding questions regarding their notoriety, etc. (sorta like the mastermind behind their revival).

I'll keep the hope and dream alive!
