    I’m loving how you guys are approaching the Spice Girls discography! Your reviews and comments are all on point, substantial and funny at the same time! The Spice Girls deserve all of the respect and admiration you give to their body of work which is indeed one of a kind - impressive! Please continue to review their singles, albums, videos, live performances, b-sides, etc. I’d personally love to see you guys review of all of their solo albums.

    What a lot of people don’t realise about VB is she was a trained dancer (went to the same college as me). Both versions of her second solo album (the dance album Open Your Eyes and the RnB Come Together) that never got released, are actually really good - Let Your Head Go and This Groove, the two singles that came out before the album was shelved - were both probably the best things she ever released!

    • @CCTVPOPS
      @CCTVPOPS  3 роки тому +7

      Yes! The unreleased second album is such a missed opportunity for her - loved the singles when they came out and agreed, probably the best solo material she released!

    I am so amazed I feel you understand perfectly each style, I love the fact you appreciate all of them individually. I agree with you 100%. Am I in 1998? It seems to me you know them so well & you maybe didn't even exist in that time.

    Geri's first album and all the singles and videos were perfect. It was still fun, camp, Spicy but more mature than their group stuff. You could really see what a big part she played in the group and their songwriting.
