By this point (March 2000), there was only about 7 to 8 months left of the last of SPICE MANIA as they disbanded in late 2000... --BUT, we still and always will LOVE OUR GIRLS!
Spice mania ended when Geri left, they remained successful til 1999 but by here people were barely interested. Its a far cry from their iconic 1997 and 1998 performances. Alot less spicy and for some reason Mel C annoys me here lol
@Marc-zi5cq I love them more as a 4 piece since seem more organic and natural. Less cartoonized. But yes it was sad to see Mel C saying: "the fans" and got no reaction from the crowd.
@@Marc-zi5cqmel c looked hideous here. Dont know what got into her head dressing like this and showing up with the hair ad makeup in a major award show.
@@Marc-zi5cqspice mania ended when they went into.hiatus after their spiceworld tour and release of goodbye. The third album was a drastic departure from the genre of the first 2 albums and fans were not impressed. And at that point, they were no longer to carry on as a group and their hearts were no longer in it and they basically did not promote the album.
This made me cry! I remember balling my little 6 year old eyes out when Ginger left the Spice Girls! I was so sad! 😅😢 It was like I lost a family member
Who cares, it was Geris performance everyone talked about, she stole the show. None of the others could do her performance and sing live at the same time. They sound pretty awful live here tbh and Mel C's style...
@@musicislife.2602 yet they did their best live performances when she was in the group. They sound shit here live as 4 piece and mimed their 4 piece EMA performance. None of them could have put on a performance like Geri and sing live at the same time, especially as a solo act. Victoria and Mel B were miming all the way through their short lived solo careers so i dont get your point.
@@musicislife.2602 erm you are talking about Spice Girls though lol she's certainly no worse than Victoria and even Mel B sounds shit live here. Mel C has a voice but looks a hot mess and irritates the hell out of most people at the time so not sure why you going for Geri so hard. They flopped without her, proving the public only wanted them with her in the group. What a fall from grace the Spice Girls performance is compared to their iconic ones in 1997 ( mimed, lol) and 1998. No one remembers this for a reason.
@@Marc-zi5cqAh. So you’re a Geri zealot. Makes sense. Anyway you cut it, the Girls had the better performance because it was live. Geri definitely got attention for giving a good spectacle, but the four ladies with a live band, live vocals and a pretty awesome choreography set here really matter. And they gave Geri love from the stage. Coming off their triumphant Christmas in Spiceworld Tour no less, the Girls were in great form. So yeah. And that SYBT acapella that followed? Fantastic.
I feel Geri could have done more to sustain her career. Her performance and show were amazing. Had she tried to sing live she would have stayed a little bit more as a solo artist. She would have gained credibility. I mean Bag it Up was literally WDYTYA part II and people still bought it and supported it. The girls show was better on vocal and musical terms. Those arranges on SUYL were amazing. This proves Geri was so in her moment at that time that the public will love her no matter what she did and that SGs had evolved as artists because they had the assets to do so and present a more organic performance.
You can so clearly see how Posh blossomed once Geri left. You cant have two Type A people in a group. Victoria's energy just skyrocketed in that last phase of their time together.
Красавицы !!! Спасибо за радость ,веселье ! Вместе с несовершеннолетней дочерью пришлось окунуться в это счастье !!! И " повзрослеть" Это прекрасно ...!!! Было ..И ни какого сожаления..! Одна радость!!!
I wouldn’t go that far, it’s not my favourite either but I think they did good here….also 1997 wasn’t live so it’s a bit of an unfair comparison. 1997 is of course too iconic for words, but this was still a great performance imo
@@Marc-zi5cq They mimed in 1997. I do enjoy their 1998 performance, but respectfully, Geri walked away. And unlike her solo performance at the same 2000 performance, these ladies were live. I think they sound good here, but if you don’t you’re entitled to your view. I just don’t agree. The Spice Girls story is interesting because of its fluid, forward-thinking arc, not because it is a slave to one’s nostalgia from one period in their collective-individual story. Food for thought.
@@ryanwilson6003 I hear you. This is still my favorite performance from them as a group. But their ‘98 BRITs performance, their London 2012 showing, as well as selections from their various tours (‘98, ‘99, ‘07/‘08, ‘19) get a hat tip here. But I always felt the Girls had reached a certain level of live performance proficiency coming off the ‘99 dates and going into this. There was a confidence and progression that really was interesting to witness despite the internal dynamics being in slight flux.
@@TheQHBlend1 i prefer their 1997 live prrformance of Spice Up Your life at the Mtv Emas or their Istanbul concert. American Music Awards too. This here is not a good vocal and not a great look either especially for Mel C
Even tho all of their hit singles are absolute classics, I always thought it was very random they chose "Spice Up Your Life" and of all songs "Goodbye" - a ballad at an awards show.
I found it very appropriate. They were effectively saying Goodbye as they knew there would be little chance they'd be at the Brit Awards the following year. They were only given this award because they'd dominated the previous 2 years so they couldn't exactly go away empty handed. They were practically finished by this point. I hated them by this time and all my friends that had been fans since 1996 no longer liked them either. Even when Davina introduces their final performance she says 'until next time...hopefully.'
@@pauljet would you prefer people lied and said 'yeah, we were still super into them- just as much as 1996-1999, if not more!' If anything, my comment shows just how much of a hold they had on a certain demographic and how quickly young people moved from one thing to the next. Even Geri pointed that out in 1997 when they were asked about being popular and if they were worried they wouldn't last- she said 'fame is fickle, people can move on to the next big thing so quickly, we're here for as long as the fans want us here.' Probably worth mentioning that the age group I'm talking about became teenagers in the year 2000, of course our tastes and interests changed- we were moving to high school and entering puberty after all! I can only talk from actually experiencing what my peers and I did, sorry it upsets you!
@@jonathanlandau-litewski7405but hate... that's a strong word, i liked Holler, but i just noticed the other kids didn't, that's it, we had new music, new pop acts, everything changed
@@calinfus80s hate is a strong word but remember as a teenager either absolutely loving or hating something- often there was no middle-ground, especially when it came to music. I remember Geri saying in a 1997 interview how kids love something one day then hate it the next and that is why fame can be so fickle. I was just giving an example of how back at that age it's all or nothing when it comes to liking something, especially when you're moving on to high school, you pretty much have your likes and dislikes dictated to you if you want to fit in!
I don't think the change of style was a problem, Forever had bops, but they totally disappeared for 1.5 -2 years and all of a sudden they returned but music industry was not the same. If Forever was released a year prior I'm sure it would do a lot lot better
Yeah they got pregnant. But they had the album was early than it was released. They wrote Holler before Darkchild wrote Say My Name. But when they released, they were accused of being DC copycats.
Listen to the songs leaked on youtube whc they wrote b4 decided to go rnb.. the songs were good. Like painproof, right back at ya in pop version..if they stick to pop and put on good mv, i thk their third album would hv done much better, though would be hard to replicate the uccess of the first 2 abums.
It’s kind of shit the way everyone turned on them and some of these comments here still about how they look and sound, they were exhausted from giving us all they did in ‘97 and ‘98. Geri chose to leave and they continued. 🤷🏻♂️ it was time to move on for them anyway but not because they weren’t ‘good enough’ without Geri, just the overexposure.
At this stage, they were no longer Spice Girls. They were 4 women who lost interest of carrying on as a group they used to be a part of. The way they dressed, their makeup, the dance, just didnt gel anymore.
That's their worst performance visually. Emma was overweight, Victoria anorexic, Mel B's implants about to burst and Mel C simply a mess. They sounded awful at "lalalalala". Yet that performance is totally iconic and I used it watch it on repeat for ages. PS: poor Posh she thought she's going to be assaulted that night, she received death threats prior to that night, you can see how petrified she was!

Exact same!!! 😢

Senti falta da parte da Victoria em Goodbye. Eu amo essa música. Sempre choro quando vejo essa performance 😢❤
I'm glad you have this in HD, plus I like the arrangement of Goodbye on this one.

What a shame, Holler was not broadcasted.
Sadly Vic didn't sing her part with Goodbye...
🎉💥💓
Mel C.. what the hell? The hairstyle, the dressing, the attitude.. oh my 😢
She was definitely either on drugs or alcohol problem this WHOLE album promotion.
I think Mel C is a reason why they flopped. She was completely unlikeable at the time and looked awful.
She was suffering from depression and binge eating disorder. I think her hyperactive behavior was a way to mask the pain she was in.
Besides what they said she was a rock chick in this era.
She was going through what was probably the darkest period of her life, depression and eating disorder.
I don't think the change of style was a problem, Forever had bops, but they totally disappeared for 1.5 -2 years and all of a sudden they returned but music industry was not the same. If Forever was released a year prior I'm sure it would do a lot lot better
