As a child, the whole family watched this clip on TV, there are 5 of us in the family, after 25 years everything has changed, my father lives separately already, my brother and sister are also separately with their families, I stayed with my mother and I always listen to this song and remember my warm childhood when we lived with the whole family under one house. I really miss those times, I want to return to this period at least for a few minutes and watch this clip again with my whole family. Now it is this song that I associate with my childhood in the circle of my family. Appreciate every second of your life and your loved ones. It is very difficult when separation takes its toll.
You have NO IDEA how much I appreciate your vulnerability right now!!! I’m just moving with my Love really far away and we are leaving sooo much behind us… I did this many times before and this song was always my support… now more than ever I feel everything what You said about being separate from your love ones or having a completely different kind of family dynamics. John Thank You x 1000000000 - Your words are soooo damn powerful. Greets and Love from Hamburg !!! 🙏🤗💪🍀🤙
everyone talking about how they are so sad and would do anything to go back, think of the lyrics"live forever, for the moment". you still have time to make new amazing memories yall!!
This song was a hit in 1998, I was a young 16 year old, a beautiful time in my life. 3rd year of secondary school, not a worry in the world, life unfolding, yet uncertain of my destination. Now 42 years old I can relate to this song and the memories it evokes. These memories recapture a time in my life where I was happy and content with my school friends, with none of the burdens associated with modern day technologies. Id love to revisited 1998 again and perhaps appreciate the freedom of youth one more time.
This song was played at the funeral of a boy from my church who sadly committed suicide in 1998. He was only 11 or 12 years old at the time and I remember being 15 and crying so hard at the funeral, as his small white coffin was being carried into the church with this song playing. RIP Matthew, gone but even after all these years never forgotten. 🙏🏾
It has always been in my mind that we can carry things for the rest of the life we have. Things like poeple we have meet in life and in some cases we probably get lost in their heads but then again in our heads they stil hang around some deserved some not so much al the lost friendships that could have been. The feeling so sad.
@thatbelgiandude1433 yes, there are some things that will remain with us forever. No matter how old we get, we feel exactly as we did at that time when something (like a song) reminds us.
I can't listen to this song and watch the video without crying. I was a huge Spice Girls fan as a kid, had their backpack, the platform shoes. I remember watching this as a kid and feeling sad for the boy who lost his friend. I have so many memories with this song. Those of us who grew up in the 90s and 2000s were truly blessed
Now. 36 watching this video and understanding that childhood is something locked in our hearts and memories finding some excuses to be reborn. sometimes that magic returns with our children... however, we still kids inside...
We never really truelly appreciate what we have until its gone. Just remember to show and make sure all those around you and those close to you know that you love them.
I played this song 10 times today to my 6months baby boy he loved it and it put him to sleep and kept me remembering the good old time and dreaming of better days.god bless u my boy
I really can't listen to this song anymore...too emotional for me, it has the sound of magical nights of childhood and youth gone forever.I am 40 now, but believe me, I would sell my soul to go back in time...
Is it okay I’m crying while listening to this song and reading your comment? I would do anything to go back in time. I made so many mistakes in the past. I want to fix it and then I can happily hitting my 30 next year... 😭😭😭😭😭
We also listened this song as a kid with my sisters. I still remember how I sincerely belived in existing these creatures and this valley. I'm crying now because we all from different nationality had this kind of innocent childhood listening this adorable song. Greetings from UZB.
✌️ Волшебная песня, до сих пор помню, как завис напротив телевизора в обл больнице детского ЛОР отделения услышав её в первый раз(2000 год) , забыв обсолютно о всех тревогах пока шёл клип ❤️❤️❤️👏🙌
Literally magical indeed. When I hear it, it takes me to another dimension where there is only brightness and happiness 🎶. Just wonderful songs for doing that
@Just a Sana Fanboy People have been shitting on the "current generation" since humanity began. If you really believe that music today is worse than it was before and feel like you have to spread the word, you're just an outdated asshole.
My cousin died in 2001 and this was her favorite song ever. I was 5 at the time, they played this at her funeral and i cry every damn time it comes on. I come back to listen every so often so that way she is always near me.
My best friend since I was 5 died seven years ago and when we were in elementary school together we were massive Spice Girls fans and even had a Spice Girls club together. I requested Viva Forever to be played at hee funeral too and it was the most hauntingly beautiful thing ❤️ so grateful for this song
02.03.2024 00:03h crying a lot remembering how romantic and dreamy I was in 1997 when I bought the Spice Girls CD with this song. Today, after so many disappointments, I feel empty, alone and that my life has not yet found meaning.
Sometimes in life, we gotta be melancholy, but dont too much, keep goin, be deadly, but dont thru death, be a sacrifier, deadly sincerely, but dont suicide.. finish out the time been given by lord..
This song brings back my innocent childhood where I used to wait whole day on MTV for this song to appear. There was this favorite Grand Aunt of mine who loves this song. She was cool, kind, loving, and loved by everyone around her. Back in the early 2000s, this is the song she used to play this on her tape while she prepare delicious dumplings for everyone. Today she passed away, now I can't help but cry like a little boy listening to this song. I'm sorry if I make you sad but yeah hope after some years, if I'm alive, I'll come back often to check this comment and remember her again.
viva for ever is simply very sensual viva for ever simply very fantastic I love it. Whenever I hear them singing about a baby acting like an all-knowing grown-up. It's as if they're singing about a baby growing up in a luxury hotel. Yes even a disco over the age of 20, even changing age, old age would be a miracle baby from viva for ever. It's as if magic baby mages were born from every health condition to every law from every bodily injury nobel magic Einstein Macgywer baby award was also born from the Australian film Spellbinder where heather Mitchell stars ashka.
So different from other Spice songs, which makes it stand out. A sad, melancholic ballad about appreciating what you have and live for the moment cause it will be gone sooner than you think:( And what makes it better is that Mel B, Scary Spice, delivers the final lines like a monologue in a low voice giving us the chills, proving she can in fact sing. What a gem of a song!
The meaning of this video: it's about losing someone. About enjoying life while you can. One day you have someone on your side... the next day it has just become a nostalgic memory. Fairies represent life: beautiful and cruel at the same time. Life dances with you, has fun with you but it will take that away from you one day. The magic cube is a metaphor about how complex life is. You can solve some things, others not. So live your life, enjoy the moments and your loved ones to the fullest. One day it ends. (Fun fact : At the end of the video, only four fairies come out of the machine. A hidden message that one of them was gone. (Geri left the band during the production of this video).
Thank you for explaining this. To this day, I never understood the video but it now makes perfect sense. Never noticed that 4 of the Spice Fairies came out. But the one that was in the cube came out in the end.
Эта замечательная песня Viva forever замечательного и обаятельного британского женского квартета Spice girls, популярного во второй половине 90-х годов можно сказать связана со знаменательным событием в моей жизни - рождением моей старшей дочери Дарьи. Это была вторая декада мая далёкого уже от нас 1998 года, над нашим большим и уютным городом стоял запах весенних майских цветений, цвели сирень, ясень и каштаны. Помню, моя жена Татьяна была на последнем 9-ом месяце беременности. Я помню, в тот день пришёл с работы, моя жена Таня решила прилечь отдохнуть. У нас в комнате помню, стоял телевизор и моя жена Таня помню смотрела музыкальный телеканал MTV, и по MTV как раз шёл видеоклип с песней популярной тогда во второй половине 90-х годов британской группы Spice girls -Viva forever, которая в том самом судьбоносном для нашей тогда ещё молодой семьи 1998 году, связанном с рождением нашей дочери Дарьи, была на самых верхних строчках мировых хит-парадов. Мы с моей женой Татьяной и наши друзья очень обожали тогда во второй половине 90-х британскую девичью поп-группу Spice girls и жалели об их распаде. И в этот момент, когда мы любовались по MTV очередной новинкой Viva forever, теперь уже ставшей золотым шлягером британской девичьей поп-группы второй половины 90-х, моя жена Таня мне помню пожаловалась, что у неё в нижней части живота началось потикивание. Мы с Таней сходу поняли, что наша будущая принцесса - дочура Дашуля уже просится наружу. Дальше уже медлить и раздумывать было нельзя и надо было уже действовать, на скорую руку принять душ, собрать минимум предметов из набора личной гигиены и необходимый минимум вещей для госпитализации в больницу, взять с собой медицинский страховой полис, паспорт и направление на госпитализацию в родильное отделение от женской консультации, известить по тогда ещё старому мобильному телефону на пальчиковых батарейках наших родителей, что в ближайшие часы ожидайте появление на свет своей будущей, как тогда установило обследование на УЗИ внучки, и вызвать скорую помощь. Это уже был вечер пятницы 22 мая 1998 года. Моя дочь Дарья родилась 22 мая 1998 года. Я на следующий день навещая в родильном доме свою жену Таню и новорождённую дочь Дашу среди других вещей, закупленных заранее и необходимых в роддоме для нашей новорождённой принцессы Дарьи и для моей жены-красавицы Татьяны прихватил и православный календарь со святцами и именами, чтобы уже чётко определиться с именем для нашей новорождённой дочери, и я листая в машине православный календарь имён на 22 мая, я в святцах увидел имя Дарья, поскольку нашей дочери Дарье после выписки моей жены и дочери из роддома потом ещё предстояли и Крестины в храме. Так мы на нашем семейном совете с женой Таней и нашими родителями постановили: назвать нашу дочурку-принцессу Дарьей. Сейчас нашей дочуре-принцессе Дарье в 2024 году исполнилось уже 26 лет. Этот видеоклип на песню Viva forever группы Spice girls снят в лесу, где показана очень трогательная сцена где дети встречаются со сказочными лесными эльфами. И английская природа сосновые леса, дубравники и холмы, напоминают природу моего родного края - одного из регионов среднего Поволжья, находящегося на одной широте с Англией. Помню, когда моя жена Татьяна уже будучи на начале последнего месяца беременности, и помню в начале мая будучи в гостях на даче сначала у моих родителей, а потом в гостях на даче у Таниных родителей, чтобы после пыльного и загазованного города, мы с Таней на нашей ласточке (машине) на подержанном "Саабе" поехали прогуляться в лес и подышать свежими ароматами весеннего цветения лесных растений нашей средней полосы России. ❤🎉😅😊 P.S. И какими молодыми, 2:17 красивыми и обаятельными в 90-х годах выглядели очаровательные солистки группы Spice girls близкие нам по возрасту девушки: Джери Халливелл (род. в 1972 г.), Мэлани Чисхольм (род. в 1974 г.), Виктория Бэкхэм - по мужу (род. в 1975 г.), Эмма Бантон (род. в 1976 г.). ❤❤❤❤🎉😊
My wife and daughter in heaven listening to this song life took them from me 10 years ago, now 31 sitting by the door hoping they walk in so i can hug them tight 😭😭😭😭😭
In my opinion, the best song in the Spice Girls' catalog. The song really hits hard as I get older. At 8 years old, I could not understand how deep the lyrics were.
I remembered randomly because someone just mentioned Spice Girls on this The Office episode I was watching. So glad I came to listen to these songs.. was truly a different world back then
It's not just their best song, this is straight up one of the greatest songs ever written. So simple yet touching. Just goes to show that you don't need elaborate stuff to write a good song and make it last. This and Aqua's Turn Back Time will always be one of my favorite songs.
Lifelong metal head here and all around lover of music.. I genuinely believe this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed. So insanely underrated!
I can't listen to this song without crying. For whatever reason it touches my soul everytime I hear it, and like you, I listen to metal and everything else, and I agree that despite anyone's dislike for the Spice Girls, this song is amazing..
At 36 ... i go back to listening to this song with my BFF who was like the big brother I never had. Who from the day I came out to him continued to treat me like his little brother. He protected me when my own family did not.. and I lost him 2 years ago. This song is so bitter sweet to me but my absolute favorite. It will always help keep his memory alive in my heart until the day I die too. #spicegirlsforever
@@ryendys Of course it's beautiful. Billie Shepherd is 31 years old now and she loves this. She lost her beloved grandmother to pneumonia and she still remembers her.
@@stefanieosborne28 It's in the past and there is nothing you can do about it so please try to not obsess over it. It won't help. Try to think about all the years you have left. You're gonna live for at least another 40-50 years so you're still young!
im only 21 but it just hit me that i basically am all grown up and childhood will never come back. All those countless hours of playing playstation with my cousin or football in the backyard with my friends and sister. It's all gone
I was raised in a middle eastern county, thus I did not grow up listening to this song. Then what does this feeling of nostalgia come from? This song carries a lot of people's emotions. It made them go through rough times and gave them courage. I hope it also gives me the courage I need. Love from Iran❤️
Music has the power to do anything and everything. It is a shame some people are not allowed to listen to music, i assume because it stimulates there mind, body and soul. When all else fails there is always a song or a melody that can lift you up, bring you down, shake you up and all around. Nothing stimulates the mind, heart, body and soul more than listening to music that we like....
For those wondering why there are suddenly so many german comments: German TV music channel VIVA had it's last airing on Dec 31. 2018. Starting in 1993 it lasted 25 years and was often more beloved then MTV, especially since (unlike MTV) it still aired music during the late 2000's. So yeah this song with Viva in the title and the melancholy sound is kinda fitting.
RIP VIVA... Since I was living in European occupied territories ))) I watched many german channels via sattelite (God blessed 90s and unencrypted broadcasting))))
My dad passed away two days ago, I couldn’t be there because of the pandemia…but I dedicated him this wonderful song…as a fan of the Spice Girls I had never thought I was going to dedicate this song to my dad after so many years of being released…”Hasta mañana” dad! Rest in peace✨
Scrolling through everyone's comments here. Its so beautiful to actually see how many of us miss our childhood Days. Down to all nationalities and ages. Its so good to see 😊❤ Thank you Spice Girls for the wonderful memories of childhood
It crazy how it wasn't even that good for me yet I have late 90s nostalgia. Maybe it's just how the future was bigger then and how people in my family were younger and how I wish they still were.
@@danamba7 I feel the same way. Life was so much simpler and better in the 90s. I still watch films, listen to music and even play games from that era and 2000/2001.
my mom died two days ago after fighting on the icu for a while. makes me sit in my old bedroom at my parents' house, listening to songs that made my childhood at 3am and missing her dearly. this is how i rediscovered this masterpiece and it reminds me of the late night drives from her and me when we visited my grandparents back then. it would always play in the radio and made me feel like the main character in my pre school years. it's comforting me a lot right now. and bringing her closer to me.
So sorry to hear about your loss. I think this is great you have these awesome memories to go back to. They live with us till we one day will see our loved ones again.
@@Carolinamehring The video story seems like has different plot to the lyric. I feel sadness in the video, of losing a best friend. One boy lost his best friend who was hypnotized and taken away by the fairies, but he will stay in remain keeping their friendship. I don't know. I feel like it's hard when I struggle to keep on the friendship alone, while my friend chases something else.
Когда я был маленьким, помню, смотрел клип и он оставил интересный след на всю жизнь. Я не понимал его, он казался очень странным. И он почему-то очень зацепил за душу, как-то мистически, завораживающе-пугающе-чарующий. Темы, связанная со смертью, потусторонним миром, жизнью, вечностью, любовью и мечтами - они незримо (и зримо) пронизывают атмосферу видео.. Какая-то грусть захлестывает от клипа. Пересмотрел его вот только сейчас, спустя почти 20 лет и наконец понял его. Музыка и слова прекрасны и чисты. Поставьте + или комментарий, кто испытывал нечто похожее.

This is my favorite Spice Girl song but it's so painful to listen to now. I was in the 8th grade when it was released and had just got news at my best friend's house that my uncle had been in a car accident and not expected to make it. My friend grabbed me & held me tight as I sobbed waiting for my parents to come get me. This song was playing as she held me up and rocked me. My uncle made it & is now 51 but with severe brain damage and has the mind of a child. Nothing was ever the same after that moment in time while Viva Forever played.
It's unbelievable how somethings never lose their magic: this is one of the most touching songs ever sang, it was in the 90's and it is still now in 2021. ❤
I've always had a memory of seeing this music video as a toddler. For some reason it really affected me back then and the memory stuck with me for years, sometimes I'll remember that feeling i felt as a child, it was a feeling of emptiness and sadness. I tried to look up the music video for years but I didnt know the name of the song or who it was sung by. But this came up in my reccomended and I was honestly speechless, after years of looking I found it. Watching it brings back that one memory I never forgot for some reason.
Omg me toooooo I remember watching this on the telly when I was super young and feeling so sad I would cry because of the video and song so glad I’m not the only one lmao
As mad as it sounds, I felt the exact same and couldn’t pin the song. Your experience is also my own and I bet it’s the same for a lot of people finally reminiscing on this song 😂
Back then I was a little 6 years old and did not realize much, but this video has a haunting meaning... The girl being enclosed in the cube and it becoming smaller and smaller, just a memory that starts fading away but never leaves of somebody who ascended beyond... So sad
EVIL UBUNTU I’m sorry that you had to deal with that growing up, I hope you are safe and happy now. Ranveer Singh Sangha, I’m so sorry for your loss, my thoughts and hopes are with you
It really is a timeless Master piece..And to be honest, I wasn't expecting this kind of song from a pop band back then. I was pleasantly surprised ..And the spanish guitar solo is outstanding!
I was born 1990 and I remember sitting in my bedroom listening to this on cassette and crying my eyes out at 7 years old as my gran had just passed away. This song still brings a lump to my throat today im now 33.
I cry my eyes out every time I hear this...I associate it with losing my cat, Tex, when he was only 9 years old. He was my emotional support animal and my best friend in the whole wide world...one day we will run together again in the grass and the fallen leaves and stretch out in the sunshine and be happy...I miss him so much.
I lost my cat best friend and beloved all over the world. When i was 11.in an abusive household she was my everything.its 26 years ago now and i still cry my heart out for her.i miss her so much :(
Watching this video again after all these years and it makes me feel really sad. One boy was left behind and was forever searching for his friend. As others have said in the comments, its like a memory of a life/love/friendship that never was. Beautiful song that has a deeper meaning now in 2022.
For me it’s like a memory of a life/love/friendship that actually was, but now is gone. A bestfriend who found someone else as adult and you are left behind and forgotten.
For me those stupid spice girls ate this poor kid. Also the message is, if you are ugly you are an easy target for girls who wants to eat you. He should have stay with his friend, but he wanted girls and he payed the ultimate prize.
I feel like it just means that friendships can sometimes not be sustained bc you go seperate ways. Like my best friend in elementary went to a different highschool and i haven't seen him since then.
@@kboid5919 that's what I thought. The spice girls kidnapped his friend and processing to turn him into one of them like Don't Be Afraid of the Dark movie.
Probably one of the most beautiful songs of the 90s. When listening to this takes you right back to those days before the Internet took over. Anyone who grew up in those times are the lucky ones little did we know then how lucky we really were.
I remember when I first saw this video and heard the song, I didn't really understand what was happening and was always tearing up, feeling sad. Guess what? Here I am, 26 years of age and I stumbled upon this video totally random, watched it and teared up again. Ain't even ashamed of admitting it, we all act all cool and stuff but inside we are all human and it's a basic human characteristic to be emotional. Also I finally understood the concept of the video and the meaning of song which made me even more sad... I lost a friend at a young age. It was hard at first but now I let it go because I know he'd want me to carry on and achieve the dreams we had when we were kids. Awesome song.
+The Blank Its a scary coincidence how the same happened with me..Even I saw this video when I was a kid..didn't even know it was spice girls then..now 26 yrs of age and I came across this..It was as if I was a kid again!Can't even begin to describe what I'm going thru right now.And so sorry 4 your loss.U r really brave 2 have carried forward
+The Blank i felt sad when i heard this song at the first time ( when i was 5 years old ), but that time i didn't know about the meaning. Today i read your comment and i cry a lot. I miss my friend :((
Emotions run wild..memories of my 5 young children dancing to spice girls..they have moved onto big cities/big jobs..they were innocent years..thanks spice girls.
God on you man me too I miss my father too he passed away 3 months ago. Am crying everyday I can feel your pain it's very emotional moment. 😭Much love❤️💔
Was always my favorite spice girl song ❤️still is. This brings me back to my childhood. I was 9 when this came out and am now 32 and still listening to it 😊
This is the magic of this song.... the Spice Girls were together as the 5 of them all of 5 years maximum... yet to everyone that loved them and continue to love them today and they created something magical that no other group has made since... those 5 years feel like a complete eternity... that is the magic of childhood is summary. The happiest time of life that went on forever when in reality it was simply just another 5 years of standard life passing by for everybody. Something so magical came to life when the Spice Girls were on top of the world. This song perfectly captures the moving transience of that complete time - that it came, we all lived to see and hear it - we went on the journey with them - and then as all great things do, in time it came to its end - and yet we all continued living. We all lived on past happily ever after and yet life just simply kept going. Whatever happened to this perfect time in our lives having a complete happy ending? Where do we go now? The complete happiness of this time is so hard to compete with as we live our adult lives - it's no wonder it calls to us forever. Let's be thankful the Spice Girls came and they gave us so much happiness and magical memories...
Crying because I’m a similar age to the girls and grew up in the innocence of the 70s and 80s Today’s world is a constant trauma So sorry for young people We are doing our best but it used to be so much better Fantastic song So peaceful and calming ❤

utkarsh kumar exactly- I grew up in the naughties and even I have to admit today's 'music' is awful. Still, some songs are pretty good and whatever decade, the songs you listened to will stick. After all, in 2040 when my kids go to a disco, the theme will probably be 2000's where everybody goes in fluorescent colours and twerks XD
Never that big a fan of Spice girls but this is by far my favourite one they ever did. Such a beautiful song. Yet so sad, it’s like the memories of a life that never was. Whether by fate or how different our lives would have been if we’d been born into something different. All the chances you don’t take or that never appeared, the idea that one change of circumstance and you could have a different life entirely and be with other people. It’s like a love song to the soul mates who never met or not even about love- they’re just dreams and experiences that never existed. The dreams that only exist in our imaginations. And a part of us will always be waiting for the lives we never had.
@@soneselenator3014 It is mate I know, Always what I felt when listening to it whilst walking across some fields next to a castle and hills near where I live in U.K. I thought of another good music video where the main character smiles and watches his family walking ahead of them but at the end of the video where they sing ‘I’ll be waiting’ the family disappear as the main character didn’t take that path in life
i'm getting so freaking nostalgic right now and i'm literally about to cry. melanie b's low voice in the background during the chorus makes me so emotional oml
This clip seriously scared me when im was a kid.. Now im 27 watching back this remind me of my happy and glory childhood. But past is past..... Life must be go on...
This song is a gem. Loved it ever since it was released and it gives me as much peace of mind today as it did then. Beautiful memories and an immortal song ☺️

As a child, the whole family watched this clip on TV, there are 5 of us in the family, after 25 years everything has changed, my father lives separately already, my brother and sister are also separately with their families, I stayed with my mother and I always listen to this song and remember my warm childhood when we lived with the whole family under one house. I really miss those times, I want to return to this period at least for a few minutes and watch this clip again with my whole family. Now it is this song that I associate with my childhood in the circle of my family. Appreciate every second of your life and your loved ones. It is very difficult when separation takes its toll.
I feel you man
I miss living with my family as siblings too. I'm 33 now and we are scattered all over the earth in different countries with kids etc
❤ wish you find that feeling again. Wish you a happy life ahead
You have NO IDEA how much I appreciate your vulnerability right now!!! I’m just moving with my Love really far away and we are leaving sooo much behind us… I did this many times before and this song was always my support… now more than ever I feel everything what You said about being separate from your love ones or having a completely different kind of family dynamics. John Thank You x 1000000000 - Your words are soooo damn powerful. Greets and Love from Hamburg !!! 🙏🤗💪🍀🤙
I feel the same.
Crying because I remember sitting down singing this song as a kid, so innocent.. your youth goes by so quickly.. please use it wisely 😞
👍😄
yes..still feel like i just go to school last year end up married and almost 30s..time fly so fast..
:( time is just a dream asta maniana
Wise words. Life is a very quick journey, never long enough.
"Don't make me sad, don't make me cry, just keep making me laugh"
everyone talking about how they are so sad and would do anything to go back, think of the lyrics"live forever, for the moment". you still have time to make new amazing memories yall!!
Absolutely true!
Wow, what a good way to interpret it x
Thanks for reminding us
Thank you for saying so and especially in honor of one of the Spice Girls' most beautiful songs.
SPOKEN LIKE A TRUE SPICE GIRL 👏👏👏
This song was a hit in 1998, I was a young 16 year old, a beautiful time in my life. 3rd year of secondary school, not a worry in the world, life unfolding, yet uncertain of my destination. Now 42 years old I can relate to this song and the memories it evokes. These memories recapture a time in my life where I was happy and content with my school friends, with none of the burdens associated with modern day technologies. Id love to revisited 1998 again and perhaps appreciate the freedom of youth one more time.
It was before that date
A haunting sense of nostalgia, pureness of the youth soul. This song lives in my heart...
Fairy Evie
I‘m so with you
Fairy Evie ok
hannahjelena witt why
perfectly put!
Perfectly said. It actually brings tears to my eyes!
This song was played at the funeral of a boy from my church who sadly committed suicide in 1998. He was only 11 or 12 years old at the time and I remember being 15 and crying so hard at the funeral, as his small white coffin was being carried into the church with this song playing. RIP Matthew, gone but even after all these years never forgotten. 🙏🏾
Rip Matthew 🙏 Angel up above now
It has always been in my mind that we can carry things for the rest of the life we have. Things like poeple we have meet in life and in some cases we probably get lost in their heads but then again in our heads they stil hang around some deserved some not so much al the lost friendships that could have been. The feeling so sad.
@lt9074 yes, he is.
@thatbelgiandude1433 yes, there are some things that will remain with us forever. No matter how old we get, we feel exactly as we did at that time when something (like a song) reminds us.
Descanse em paz
I can't listen to this song and watch the video without crying. I was a huge Spice Girls fan as a kid, had their backpack, the platform shoes. I remember watching this as a kid and feeling sad for the boy who lost his friend. I have so many memories with this song. Those of us who grew up in the 90s and 2000s were truly blessed
That's true! I was born in 83…
I feel the same way like you. The best memories from my childhood too. I was born in '84
oh wow,I remember I was a child and I was so sad as well for the boy .
Yeah I cry whenever I hear this
What's the point of the video? It doesn't match the song at all.
This song used to make me cry as a kid. So emotional. I’m 31 now, and I remember this song so vividly
❤
Same, i am 42 right now
I just found this song today after 20 years I first listened to it. ❤❤❤❤❤
same 31
Блин, мне 46 и я ее тоже помню и люблю
This song will surely never fade to me. It's like it was released yesterday. I'm still feeling it in 2023
❤❤ lo mejores recuerdos 😍
Me too😂
Me too
Same here. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Me too❤
We dont search for old songs, we search for memories. ♥ ♥ ♥
Exactly 🔥
Can it be these two things go hand in hand...!❤😮
Very true ❤
Agreed
@@onaematopiaxvm.😮😊
Now. 36 watching this video and understanding that childhood is something locked in our hearts and memories finding some excuses to be reborn. sometimes that magic returns with our children... however, we still kids inside...
I'm 41 now but I still listening to their music and watching their videos
Beautiful comment. Made me cry
that's so beautiful, I feel like this with the Spice Girls, they were everything to me as a kid, and still are...
We never really truelly appreciate what we have until its gone. Just remember to show and make sure all those around you and those close to you know that you love them.
Nostalgic and emotional
I played this song 10 times today to my 6months baby boy he loved it and it put him to sleep and kept me remembering the good old time and dreaming of better days.god bless u my boy
I really can't listen to this song anymore...too emotional for me, it has the sound of magical nights of childhood and youth gone forever.I am 40 now, but believe me, I would sell my soul to go back in time...
Simone Peccolo 😢😢😢 me too
Is it okay I’m crying while listening to this song and reading your comment? I would do anything to go back in time. I made so many mistakes in the past. I want to fix it and then I can happily hitting my 30 next year... 😭😭😭😭😭
word.
Feel you!
Definitely feel you...I'm in my early 40s. ..can make me sad remember ing stuff😟😟😢
Mel B's low tone at the end always sends shivers down my spine.
I feel the same way with sporty's voice in the background
I like more Mel C, if u realize in all musics she always have a solo because is the only real singer
And my fav SG she has charisma in every way :)
agreed... she has such a smoothing voice.
Me too!
I dunno how to express it but this video has a sense of nostalgia that is quite haunting. Beautiful yet lonely.
Ris R agreeeed
maybe your awareness of soul who remeber from she becomes, this song is a clear soul travel parallelism, and what happened in this material life
I thought I was the only one who felt that. I guess only 90's kids would know that feeling
Ris R so true ..most of 90's kids will understand that ☺
Ris R Bless Your Hart.
We also listened this song as a kid with my sisters. I still remember how I sincerely belived in existing these creatures and this valley. I'm crying now because we all from different nationality had this kind of innocent childhood listening this adorable song. Greetings from UZB.
I very much understand you.
✌️ Волшебная песня, до сих пор помню, как завис напротив телевизора в обл больнице детского ЛОР отделения услышав её в первый раз(2000 год) , забыв обсолютно о всех тревогах пока шёл клип ❤️❤️❤️👏🙌
This is what pop music sounds like when it’s brilliantly crafted. It’s literal magic.
Me encanta que te encante
Literally magical indeed. When I hear it, it takes me to another dimension where there is only brightness and happiness 🎶. Just wonderful songs for doing that

@Just a Sana Fanboy People have been shitting on the "current generation" since humanity began. If you really believe that music today is worse than it was before and feel like you have to spread the word, you're just an outdated asshole.
@@MrLoowiz wow
My cousin died in 2001 and this was her favorite song ever. I was 5 at the time, they played this at her funeral and i cry every damn time it comes on. I come back to listen every so often so that way she is always near me.
My best friend since I was 5 died seven years ago and when we were in elementary school together we were massive Spice Girls fans and even had a Spice Girls club together. I requested Viva Forever to be played at hee funeral too and it was the most hauntingly beautiful thing ❤️ so grateful for this song
Hugs xx 😢
May her soul rest in peace
I am so sorry for your loss 💜 @@LCS264
This is the first song I remember from my childhood. It was so hypnotic and sounded like a sweet lullaby back then. I'm crying tears of nostalgia.
Same here😢
02.03.2024 00:03h crying a lot remembering how romantic and dreamy I was in 1997 when I bought the Spice Girls CD with this song. Today, after so many disappointments, I feel empty, alone and that my life has not yet found meaning.
god bless you.
Sometimes in life, we gotta be melancholy, but dont too much,
keep goin, be deadly, but dont thru death, be a sacrifier, deadly sincerely, but dont suicide.. finish out the time been given by lord..
All be good. Take care
😢💐💐💐💐💐💐🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Courage
This song brings back my innocent childhood where I used to wait whole day on MTV for this song to appear.
There was this favorite Grand Aunt of mine who loves this song. She was cool, kind, loving, and loved by everyone around her.
Back in the early 2000s, this is the song she used to play this on her tape while she prepare delicious dumplings for everyone.
Today she passed away, now I can't help but cry like a little boy listening to this song.
I'm sorry if I make you sad but yeah hope after some years, if I'm alive, I'll come back often to check this comment and remember her again.
Were all human my mate let it out, tale care
💚😇
viva for ever is simply very sensual viva for ever simply very fantastic I love it. Whenever I hear them singing about a baby acting like an all-knowing grown-up. It's as if they're singing about a baby growing up in a luxury hotel. Yes even a disco over the age of 20, even changing age, old age would be a miracle baby from viva for ever.
It's as if magic baby mages were born from every health condition to every law from every bodily injury nobel magic Einstein Macgywer baby award was also born from the Australian film Spellbinder where heather Mitchell stars ashka.
My condolences to you and your family. Sending thoughts and prayers to you. She's your guardian angel 💜
FACTS
So different from other Spice songs, which makes it stand out. A sad, melancholic ballad about appreciating what you have and live for the moment cause it will be gone sooner than you think:(
And what makes it better is that Mel B, Scary Spice, delivers the final lines like a monologue in a low voice giving us the chills, proving she can in fact sing. What a gem of a song!
I was at their concert in Dublin and I could not stop crying over this. So many memories. They will always be in the heart of the 90's kids.
2000's too
100%

So true..
MAGIC SONG
The meaning of this video: it's about losing someone. About enjoying life while you can. One day you have someone on your side... the next day it has just become a nostalgic memory.
Fairies represent life: beautiful and cruel at the same time. Life dances with you, has fun with you but it will take that away from you one day. The magic cube is a metaphor about how complex life is. You can solve some things, others not. So live your life, enjoy the moments and your loved ones to the fullest. One day it ends.
(Fun fact : At the end of the video, only four fairies come out of the machine. A hidden message that one of them was gone. (Geri left the band during the production of this video).
dude thank you! i was watching this thinking "wut the hell is the video about?!?!" also cool and kinda sad fact about the end there
thank you..
thank you...
Thank you for explaining this. To this day, I never understood the video but it now makes perfect sense. Never noticed that 4 of the Spice Fairies came out. But the one that was in the cube came out in the end.
I thought this too
The most beautiful Spice Girls song❤️
Absolutely
Agreed
I support your opinion, i love this song but i like "i wanna i wanna" song (forgot name 😂) more.

definitely !!
Эта замечательная песня Viva forever замечательного и обаятельного британского женского квартета Spice girls, популярного во второй половине 90-х годов можно сказать связана со знаменательным событием в моей жизни - рождением моей старшей дочери Дарьи. Это была вторая декада мая далёкого уже от нас 1998 года, над нашим большим и уютным городом стоял запах весенних майских цветений, цвели сирень, ясень и каштаны. Помню, моя жена Татьяна была на последнем 9-ом месяце беременности. Я помню, в тот день пришёл с работы, моя жена Таня решила прилечь отдохнуть. У нас в комнате помню, стоял телевизор и моя жена Таня помню смотрела музыкальный телеканал MTV, и по MTV как раз шёл видеоклип с песней популярной тогда во второй половине 90-х годов британской группы Spice girls -Viva forever, которая в том самом судьбоносном для нашей тогда ещё молодой семьи 1998 году, связанном с рождением нашей дочери Дарьи, была на самых верхних строчках мировых хит-парадов. Мы с моей женой Татьяной и наши друзья очень обожали тогда во второй половине 90-х британскую девичью поп-группу Spice girls и жалели об их распаде.
И в этот момент, когда мы любовались по MTV очередной новинкой Viva forever, теперь уже ставшей золотым шлягером британской девичьей поп-группы второй половины 90-х, моя жена Таня мне помню пожаловалась, что у неё в нижней части живота началось потикивание. Мы с Таней сходу поняли, что наша будущая принцесса - дочура Дашуля уже просится наружу.
Дальше уже медлить и раздумывать было нельзя и надо было уже действовать, на скорую руку принять душ, собрать минимум предметов из набора личной гигиены и необходимый минимум вещей для госпитализации в больницу, взять с собой медицинский страховой полис, паспорт и направление на госпитализацию в родильное отделение от женской консультации, известить по тогда ещё старому мобильному телефону на пальчиковых батарейках наших родителей, что в ближайшие часы ожидайте появление на свет своей будущей, как тогда установило обследование на УЗИ внучки, и вызвать скорую помощь. Это уже был вечер пятницы 22 мая 1998 года.
Моя дочь Дарья родилась 22 мая 1998 года.
Я на следующий день навещая в родильном доме свою жену Таню и новорождённую дочь Дашу
среди других вещей, закупленных заранее и необходимых в роддоме для нашей новорождённой принцессы Дарьи и для моей жены-красавицы Татьяны прихватил и православный календарь со святцами и именами, чтобы уже чётко определиться с именем для нашей новорождённой дочери, и я листая в машине православный календарь имён на 22 мая, я в святцах увидел имя Дарья, поскольку нашей дочери Дарье после выписки моей жены и дочери из роддома потом ещё предстояли и Крестины в храме. Так мы на нашем семейном совете с женой Таней и нашими родителями постановили: назвать нашу дочурку-принцессу Дарьей. Сейчас нашей дочуре-принцессе Дарье в 2024 году исполнилось уже 26 лет.
Этот видеоклип на песню Viva forever группы Spice girls снят в лесу, где показана очень трогательная сцена где дети встречаются со сказочными лесными эльфами. И английская природа сосновые леса, дубравники и холмы, напоминают природу моего родного края - одного из регионов среднего Поволжья, находящегося на одной широте с Англией. Помню, когда моя жена Татьяна уже будучи на начале последнего месяца беременности, и помню в начале мая будучи в гостях на даче сначала у моих родителей, а потом в гостях на даче у Таниных родителей, чтобы после пыльного и загазованного города, мы с Таней на нашей ласточке (машине) на подержанном "Саабе" поехали прогуляться в лес и подышать свежими ароматами весеннего цветения лесных растений нашей средней полосы России.
❤🎉😅😊
P.S.
И какими молодыми, 2:17 красивыми и обаятельными в 90-х годах выглядели очаровательные солистки группы Spice girls близкие нам по возрасту девушки: Джери Халливелл (род. в 1972 г.), Мэлани Чисхольм (род. в 1974 г.), Виктория Бэкхэм - по мужу (род. в 1975 г.), Эмма Бантон (род. в 1976 г.).

My wife and daughter in heaven listening to this song life took them from me 10 years ago, now 31 sitting by the door hoping they walk in so i can hug them tight 😭😭😭😭😭
I wanna hug you😭😭😭😭
You need a hug old man 😢
I'm so sorry for your loss :(. They are still watching you on your every step, be strong :)
I'm so sorry for you lost :c
I hope you're doing well, stay strong ! Virtuals hugs 🫂
God bless you sir 🙏 ❤
In my opinion, the best song in the Spice Girls' catalog. The song really hits hard as I get older. At 8 years old, I could not understand how deep the lyrics were.
I feel the same , its true... Jarek Poland 👍
Agree with you, Brian and Jaroslaw!
Totally agree, Brian
I completely agree that this is their best best song! 🎵 🎶 🎵 🎶 ❤️
I'd say this is tied with Goodbye as far as their best song--they're both equally deep to me.
The final part with Mel B’s low vocals and Mel C’s high ad libs always gives me the chills!
yyeeeeeeeesssssss!!!!!!!!! me tooo!!!!
So beautiful isn't it. Listen to the live version. It's phenomenal.
it's like horror movie.
Też od 20 lat mam w tym momencie ciary

If you're here in 2024 listening to this masterpiece, you have a superior taste in music

THANK GOD, THAT'S ME.
I remembered randomly because someone just mentioned Spice Girls on this The Office episode I was watching. So glad I came to listen to these songs.. was truly a different world back then
Oh yesss 🥰🥰🥰
Great comment 👍
This makes me so sad cause I looked up online that the song is about the loss of youth and it’s us leaving our childhood behind.. 😭
I literally just commented asking what 4:05 meant is that apart of what you just said?
Watching it with my 3 year old and now I’m so sad.
Thank you for explaining the meaning of this song 🙂
We have lived..
Omg😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I love this song so frickin much! Oh my childhood, come back! 🥺
Wassup late 80's & 90's kids!? 🥰😍❤️👋🏾😎
Those days were so innocent. 😿

Soy del 92 tengo 30 y amo adoro esta canción desde pequeña..les hice escuchar esta canción a mis hijas y aman tbm esta canción 🥰🥰🥰
yoyoyo....
This is hands down their best song. The production and the vocals the music.
I'd say it's a tie between this and Goodbye. Their 2 deepest songs, easily.
It's not just their best song, this is straight up one of the greatest songs ever written. So simple yet touching. Just goes to show that you don't need elaborate stuff to write a good song and make it last. This and Aqua's Turn Back Time will always be one of my favorite songs.
This song is eternal.

Fking external! These are those kinda songs!
As a 90s born kid this song hits hard. 😢 So much nostalgia of my childhood days. Back when everything and everyone was good.
Lifelong metal head here and all around lover of music.. I genuinely believe this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed. So insanely underrated!
I can't listen to this song without crying. For whatever reason it touches my soul everytime I hear it, and like you, I listen to metal and everything else, and I agree that despite anyone's dislike for the Spice Girls, this song is amazing..
Same here. Spice Girls' most beautiful song ever.
I know right? How on Earth did this song NOT become number one?!
it did in the UK
The video and the song is just gives perfect mix for a helluva memorable song
At 36 ... i go back to listening to this song with my BFF who was like the big brother I never had. Who from the day I came out to him continued to treat me like his little brother. He protected me when my own family did not.. and I lost him 2 years ago. This song is so bitter sweet to me but my absolute favorite. It will always help keep his memory alive in my heart until the day I die too. #spicegirlsforever
thats beautiful. its a blessing when the people you love and cherish the most accept you for who you are. im glad you have in your life
Yes. You still miss your brother 😢😪😔
@@ryendys
Of course it's beautiful. Billie Shepherd is 31 years old now and she loves this. She lost her beloved grandmother to pneumonia and she still remembers her.
38 and this makes me feel like a kid again, youth passes you by so quickly and next thing you have endless responsibilities, don’t rush those years ♥️
True !
Same! I just turned 38 and am really obsessed with the years of my youth! It's sad and I want to go back
@@stefanieosborne28 It's in the past and there is nothing you can do about it so please try to not obsess over it. It won't help. Try to think about all the years you have left. You're gonna live for at least another 40-50 years so you're still young!
So True I will be 39 this year and this song took me back 20 plus years!!
im only 21 but it just hit me that i basically am all grown up and childhood will never come back. All those countless hours of playing playstation with my cousin or football in the backyard with my friends and sister. It's all gone
2023 and still a classic!!
42yrs old and STILL love this song!!
35 here with ya
Yes , same , 51
48, I agree
46, agreed.
Im 66 and remember this then and now. Love it their best sing ever.❤
I was raised in a middle eastern county, thus I did not grow up listening to this song. Then what does this feeling of nostalgia come from?
This song carries a lot of people's emotions. It made them go through rough times and gave them courage. I hope it also gives me the courage I need.
Love from Iran❤️
Music has the power to do anything and everything. It is a shame some people are not allowed to listen to music, i assume because it stimulates there mind, body and soul. When all else fails there is always a song or a melody that can lift you up, bring you down, shake you up and all around. Nothing stimulates the mind, heart, body and soul more than listening to music that we like....
For those wondering why there are suddenly so many german comments:
German TV music channel VIVA had it's last airing on Dec 31. 2018. Starting in 1993 it lasted 25 years and was often more beloved then MTV, especially since (unlike MTV) it still aired music during the late 2000's.
So yeah this song with Viva in the title and the melancholy sound is kinda fitting.
That makes sense. Thanks for telling us.
RIP VIVA...
Since I was living in European occupied territories )))
I watched many german channels via sattelite (God blessed 90s and unencrypted broadcasting))))
thanks for that.
Viva, I'll always love you, you made my youth wonderful
VIVA is gone??? oh no :( i LOVED this channel!!
Such a masterpiece, still enjoying Viva forever in 2024!
My dad passed away two days ago, I couldn’t be there because of the pandemia…but I dedicated him this wonderful song…as a fan of the Spice Girls I had never thought I was going to dedicate this song to my dad after so many years of being released…”Hasta mañana” dad! Rest in peace✨
Algún día se reunirán de nuevo mientras recuérdalo con mucho cariño un Abrazo Amigo ☺️😉
So sorry! I lost my daddy to suicide when I was younger. Hope you know your dad is watching over you! One day you will meet again. Hugs XOX
So sorry for you...May his soul rest in peace..he is surely watching over you...i lost my dad too last year and couldnt be there due to pandemic
Rip to your dad. He'll be Always in your heart and thoughts

Its so beautiful to actually see how many of us miss our childhood Days. Down to all nationalities and ages. Its so good to see 😊❤ Thank you Spice Girls for the wonderful memories of childhood
I struggle with it sometimes. I think I'm addicted to nostalgia because I won't those days back.
It crazy how it wasn't even that good for me yet I have late 90s nostalgia. Maybe it's just how the future was bigger then and how people in my family were younger and how I wish they still were.
@@danamba7 I feel the same way. Life was so much simpler and better in the 90s. I still watch films, listen to music and even play games from that era and 2000/2001.
You are a 100 percent right
Were the 90s that great or are the post 2000s just that bad? lol
This song is magical ✨️ 😍 miss those days back in the 90s as a teenager. Thank you Spice Girls for this 💕 😊
2020 family??
No matter how many times I listen to this, I cry, so emotional this song is
my mom died two days ago after fighting on the icu for a while. makes me sit in my old bedroom at my parents' house, listening to songs that made my childhood at 3am and missing her dearly. this is how i rediscovered this masterpiece and it reminds me of the late night drives from her and me when we visited my grandparents back then. it would always play in the radio and made me feel like the main character in my pre school years. it's comforting me a lot right now. and bringing her closer to me.
I feel you pain , I lost my mum in the ICU not so long ago 😢 my heart goes out to you .
May her soul rest in peace
Thank you 💕
So sorry to hear about your loss. I think this is great you have these awesome memories to go back to. They live with us till we one day will see our loved ones again.
I know I'm late but keep going brother.. we'll eventually meet one day.. stay strong
TAKE ME BACK 🥺 best years of my life were the Spice Girls days 🦋
This song always hit hard for me for some reason… crying here listening to it in 2024…
This song touches my heart so much. It's been over 20 years and I still cry when watching the video.
I've just watched it and cried!

Когда я был маленьким, помню, смотрел клип и он оставил интересный след на всю жизнь. Я не понимал его, он казался очень странным. И он почему-то очень зацепил за душу, как-то мистически, завораживающе-пугающе-чарующий. Темы, связанная со смертью, потусторонним миром, жизнью, вечностью, любовью и мечтами - они незримо (и зримо) пронизывают атмосферу видео..
Какая-то грусть захлестывает от клипа.
Пересмотрел его вот только сейчас, спустя почти 20 лет и наконец понял его.

This is my favorite Spice Girl song but it's so painful to listen to now. I was in the 8th grade when it was released and had just got news at my best friend's house that my uncle had been in a car accident and not expected to make it. My friend grabbed me & held me tight as I sobbed waiting for my parents to come get me. This song was playing as she held me up and rocked me. My uncle made it & is now 51 but with severe brain damage and has the mind of a child. Nothing was ever the same after that moment in time while Viva Forever played.
Everytime i hear this song. It seems like im missing someone that i didn't know. Literally.
blanche piquero may be you are missing me
Omg same !
nice
blanche piquero i had the same feeling but with onother song, Todavia, La Factoria.
I feel exactly the same 🤔🤗
It's unbelievable how somethings never lose their magic: this is one of the most touching songs ever sang, it was in the 90's and it is still now in 2021. ❤
I agree. Hello from Russia. )
I feel you on that. Love this song.
Exactly me too i love this song à lot
agreed.. evergreen everlasting number♥️♥️♥️
Hahahaha
I've always had a memory of seeing this music video as a toddler. For some reason it really affected me back then and the memory stuck with me for years, sometimes I'll remember that feeling i felt as a child, it was a feeling of emptiness and sadness. I tried to look up the music video for years but I didnt know the name of the song or who it was sung by. But this came up in my reccomended and I was honestly speechless, after years of looking I found it. Watching it brings back that one memory I never forgot for some reason.
Omg me toooooo I remember watching this on the telly when I was super young and feeling so sad I would cry because of the video and song so glad I’m not the only one lmao
I that feeling too! I was look for this song and the video for years, end up I found it in 2021!
Same story here. This song bring me back. I miss that moment.
Yes dude.It made me little Russian boy make tears. And didn't even understand the words. Just the music and the clip.
As mad as it sounds, I felt the exact same and couldn’t pin the song. Your experience is also my own and I bet it’s the same for a lot of people finally reminiscing on this song 😂
My 6 year old daughter loves this song and it even brings a little tear to my (daddy's) eyes.
One of the few songs I listen to that instantly breaks my heart when it starts to play.
Back then I was a little 6 years old and did not realize much, but this video has a haunting meaning... The girl being enclosed in the cube and it becoming smaller and smaller, just a memory that starts fading away but never leaves of somebody who ascended beyond... So sad
I am crying like a small girl because I am missing my dad so much right now

EVIL UBUNTU I’m sorry that you had to deal with that growing up, I hope you are safe and happy now. Ranveer Singh Sangha, I’m so sorry for your loss, my thoughts and hopes are with you
I’m sorry for your loss 🥺
Thank you so much everyone for warm comments
Nearly 40 years old and still I feel this song as I did as a teen!! Stunning! ❤
around 25years old
42, this is their best song IMO
me too
37 and same
This song is probably the most beautiful ballad of the Spice Girls. It's a masterpiece !! ❤️
It really is a timeless Master piece..And to be honest, I wasn't expecting this kind of song from a pop band back then. I was pleasantly surprised ..And the spanish guitar solo is outstanding!

Little did i know Spice mania would end some day. What was sweeter for a die hard fan in 98, 99? Nothing
Yeah I agree
I noticed that 😜🎈🎀🇨🇮
This is such a lovely and beautiful song ..thanks for uploading ❤❤🎉🎉
I dedicate this song to everybody's childhood.
I was born 1990 and I remember sitting in my bedroom listening to this on cassette and crying my eyes out at 7 years old as my gran had just passed away. This song still brings a lump to my throat today im now 33.
1990? You're so young!
@David-yh7up thank you so much 😊 I'll take that as a compliment ☺️
@pelleoh I wish I felt young haha
I was born 1990 too lv. N I can relate so much xxxx
@jessrosefawkes2721 the 90s were amazing.......I miss the 90s so much 🥳
One of the best Spice Girls ever! A powerful and hauntingly beautifully classic.
I always felt this was one of their best songs if not best. Still is hauntingly beautiful to this day..
The Best
45 yrs old man crying listening "always be mine"😢😢
Switched to pay trance and trance just because they don't make songs like this ❤❤❤❤😢
I cry my eyes out every time I hear this...I associate it with losing my cat, Tex, when he was only 9 years old. He was my emotional support animal and my best friend in the whole wide world...one day we will run together again in the grass and the fallen leaves and stretch out in the sunshine and be happy...I miss him so much.
;/
I lost my cat best friend and beloved all over the world. When i was 11.in an abusive household she was my everything.its 26 years ago now and i still cry my heart out for her.i miss her so much :(
😞😔
I’m so sorry for your loss, pets are part of our family
😔
Very few people had access to the internet and mobile phones were still a rarity and yet life seemed so much fuller in the 90's. I miss those days .
agree with you
Maybe it's because we were young back then.
I agree
Amen 🙏 damn I miss those times! The 90’s were my teenage years.. oh to go back
That's how most rich people feel. They have everything but still feel empty.
Watching this video again after all these years and it makes me feel really sad. One boy was left behind and was forever searching for his friend. As others have said in the comments, its like a memory of a life/love/friendship that never was. Beautiful song that has a deeper meaning now in 2022.
For me it’s like a memory of a life/love/friendship that actually was, but now is gone.
A bestfriend who found someone else as adult and you are left behind and forgotten.
For me those stupid spice girls ate this poor kid. Also the message is, if you are ugly you are an easy target for girls who wants to eat you. He should have stay with his friend, but he wanted girls and he payed the ultimate prize.
I feel like it just means that friendships can sometimes not be sustained bc you go seperate ways. Like my best friend in elementary went to a different highschool and i haven't seen him since then.
Well it is true it's just a memory now
@@kboid5919 that's what I thought. The spice girls kidnapped his friend and processing to turn him into one of them like Don't Be Afraid of the Dark movie.
This song reminds me of my late sister in Heaven 😭😭😭 Really miss her so much.
Probably one of the most beautiful songs of the 90s.
When listening to this takes you right back to those days before the Internet took over.
Anyone who grew up in those times are the lucky ones little did we know then how lucky we really were.
Agreed! 86-er dude here. I hear ya.
We really were
Agree
indeed my friend , this song takes me to my childhood preteens years
I remember when I first saw this video and heard the song, I didn't really understand what was happening and was always tearing up, feeling sad. Guess what? Here I am, 26 years of age and I stumbled upon this video totally random, watched it and teared up again. Ain't even ashamed of admitting it, we all act all cool and stuff but inside we are all human and it's a basic human characteristic to be emotional. Also I finally understood the concept of the video and the meaning of song which made me even more sad... I lost a friend at a young age. It was hard at first but now I let it go because I know he'd want me to carry on and achieve the dreams we had when we were kids. Awesome song.
same hear. Loved the song back than but it was sad. Randomly came across it and get it. Also crying..no shame in feeling love
+The Blank Its a scary coincidence how the same happened with me..Even I saw this video when I was a kid..didn't even know it was spice girls then..now 26 yrs of age and I came across this..It was as if I was a kid again!Can't even begin to describe what I'm going thru right now.And so sorry 4 your loss.U r really brave 2 have carried forward
Felt the the same too, now im27 and felt sad about it again. Where did he go!
+The Blank i felt sad when i heard this song at the first time ( when i was 5 years old ), but that time i didn't know about the meaning. Today i read your comment and i cry a lot. I miss my friend :((
+The Blank It's hard when you lose a childhood friend at any age even middle or old age! Thanks for sharing.
I just want to know, how many people listen to this song and cry. Masterpiece 👌ohh my Childhood time passed Very Quiqkly😢

wow same..your age same with me..i am from malaysia
Same was 9 when this came out. I miss those days.
Nostalgia pure 😪😍
Saaammmmeee😁
Same here
I'm still listening to this everlasting song like the sun in 2023 who else?
meeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Me too.
Me right now
Me too
the sun is not endless...
This is the magic of this song.... the Spice Girls were together as the 5 of them all of 5 years maximum... yet to everyone that loved them and continue to love them today and they created something magical that no other group has made since... those 5 years feel like a complete eternity... that is the magic of childhood is summary. The happiest time of life that went on forever when in reality it was simply just another 5 years of standard life passing by for everybody.
Something so magical came to life when the Spice Girls were on top of the world. This song perfectly captures the moving transience of that complete time - that it came, we all lived to see and hear it - we went on the journey with them - and then as all great things do, in time it came to its end - and yet we all continued living. We all lived on past happily ever after and yet life just simply kept going.
Whatever happened to this perfect time in our lives having a complete happy ending? Where do we go now?
The complete happiness of this time is so hard to compete with as we live our adult lives - it's no wonder it calls to us forever.
Let's be thankful the Spice Girls came and they gave us so much happiness and magical memories...
Crying because I’m a similar age to the girls and grew up in the innocence of the 70s and 80s
Today’s world is a constant trauma
So sorry for young people
We are doing our best but it used to be so much better
Fantastic song
So peaceful and calming ❤
Yes
nein
I feel sad and pain everytime heard this song..., there is an empty space in my heart
[Verse 1: Baby]
Do you still remember
How we used to be
Feeling together
Believing whatever
My love has said to me
Both of us were dreamers
Young love in the sun
Felt like my saviour
My spirit I gave ya
We'd only just begun
[Pre-Chorus: All]
Hasta mañana
Always be mine
[Chorus: All]
Viva forever, I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever, for the moment
Ever searching for the one
[Verse 2: Scary, Scary & Baby, Sporty, Sporty & Baby]
Yes, I still remember
Every whispered word
The touch of your skin
Giving life from within
Like a love song never heard
Slipping through our fingers
Like the sands of time
Promises made
Every memory saved
As reflections in my mind
[Pre-Chorus: All]
Hasta mañana
Always be mine
[Chorus: All]
Viva forever, I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever, for the moment
Ever searching for the one
[Verse 3: Posh, Posh & Baby]
Back where I belong now
Was it just a dream?
Feelings unfold
They will never be sold
And the secret's safe with me
[Pre-Chorus: All]
Hasta mañana
Always be mine
[Chorus: All & (Sporty)]
Viva forever (viva forever), I'll be waiting (I'll be waiting)
Everlasting (everlasting), like the sun (like the sun)
Live forever (live forever), for the moment (for the moment)
Ever searching (ever searching) for the one (for the one)
Viva forever (viva forever), I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever (live forever), for the moment
Ever searching for the one
Viva forever (viva forever), I'll be waiting
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever (live forever), for the moment
Ever searching for the one
[Outro: Scary & (Sporty)]
Viva forever, I'll be waiting (I'll be waiting)
Everlasting, like the sun
Live forever (live forever), for the moment
Ever searching for the one
Thank you so much
Well done 🫡
Lirik

When I heard this song on the radio yesterday, it struck my heart with a joyful warm feeling, that took me years and years back! I miss being a child
MY FEELINGS EXACTLY!!
it was on Tiny Pop- it's kinda dark for a kid's channel- I used to hide behind the sofa XD
utkarsh kumar
The 90's were better than the crap of today, but special? Nah that was the 80's!
utkarsh kumar
So true!
utkarsh kumar exactly- I grew up in the naughties and even I have to admit today's 'music' is awful. Still, some songs are pretty good and whatever decade, the songs you listened to will stick.
After all, in 2040 when my kids go to a disco, the theme will probably be 2000's where everybody goes in fluorescent colours and twerks XD
I hope I'm not alone here happy new year to everyone.this song never get old.
Bro cmon, this was the 90’s, I’m a 90’s kid.
LukeyBoy I’m so glad I grew up in the 90s
Miss Plebby Mc Pleb!, Awesome
Its like entering the new world
Great 2020 4 u 2 Bro !
God blessed the children's of 90s , century❤
Songs like this is a sound of memories....Viva forever!!!
Never that big a fan of Spice girls but this is by far my favourite one they ever did. Such a beautiful song. Yet so sad, it’s like the memories of a life that never was. Whether by fate or how different our lives would have been if we’d been born into something different. All the chances you don’t take or that never appeared, the idea that one change of circumstance and you could have a different life entirely and be with other people. It’s like a love song to the soul mates who never met or not even about love- they’re just dreams and experiences that never existed. The dreams that only exist in our imaginations. And a part of us will always be waiting for the lives we never had.
Damn that's deep
Fuck!! why doesn't this hav up to a thousand likes. Just hit the very core of my emotions
You are very right with your words. This is one of my favorites songs when ever I play this music I just flashback.
@@umorenakpan5012 haha thank you friend. I’ll remember you if I get a thousand likes
@@soneselenator3014 It is mate I know, Always what I felt when listening to it whilst walking across some fields next to a castle and hills near where I live in U.K. I thought of another good music video where the main character smiles and watches his family walking ahead of them but at the end of the video where they sing ‘I’ll be waiting’ the family disappear as the main character didn’t take that path in life
i'm getting so freaking nostalgic right now and i'm literally about to cry. melanie b's low voice in the background during the chorus makes me so emotional oml
That's mel c not mel b in the chorus background
@@davidforde8497 she's talking about the LOW VOICE and that's definitely Mel B singing along with Mel C the high tone.
👍
If you grew up listening to this kind of music,THEN YOUR CHILDHOOD WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It really was... Spice Girls musicalised my childhood. I'm so grateful to have been born as a 90's kid (L)
@She Wasilewski Keep coming and you will find it still here.25 Years from now!!11
Yass!.
yes i did
Eugene, Wonderful
that music,the best
music
gives career gives SPICE GIRLS.
Beautiful, timeless, otherworldly song. Let your young ones listen to it.
The video is also masterful. Never fails to make me emotional.
This clip seriously scared me when im was a kid.. Now im 27 watching back this remind me of my happy and glory childhood. But past is past..... Life must be go on...
Same with me😅 this so scared before
@@inialutarfus 😂 miss my childhood very much
why scare?
It's very true!!!
Used to scare me as well!
one of the most beautiful songs ever written ! so underrated ! it's a shame !
it was huge even before you were born and still is
Compared to Justin Biebers 10000000 views, it's underated completely.
It is very beautiful, so many layers to it but the video is awful & doesn't fit with the song at all.
Amir Ali 10,000,000? Justin Bieber has 2.4billion views on 'sorry' and 1.6billion on most of his songs
I was 14 when this song was released. ; )
It's actually quite hard listening to this song and not get emotional. It is probably their best song.
This song is a gem. Loved it ever since it was released and it gives me as much peace of mind today as it did then. Beautiful memories and an immortal song ☺️
