Mel B had a *stunning* voice at the start of her career. She had such deep, sultry notes that added so much to that first album and its R&B vibe; Last Time Lover and If You Can't Dance, especially.

[@Rashy225]

Mel’s voice is so much nicer when she sings in a lower tone rather than when she sings higher.

[@mastermaarteh5510]

Yes MelB she is the most hard working among the group.. a singer, host reality show, judge, stage play singer, actress, manager everything.. shes even responsible for their 20th reunion.. amazing woman

[@piotr6744]

Yesss Mel B's deep voice together eith z great harmony of other 4 girls was always something that made Spice Girls so unique and pleasurable to listen to❤

[@MLawrence-z9k]

Yeah but Mel C was like Whitney & Posh was more sultry than Mel B ever was !!!!! U must be a BLM member 😂😂😂

[@pinkwolf2537]

Mel c "sporty spice" always was the strongest, most technical and unique voice in the spice girls. Hands down.

[@xenondoro8573]

Her voice has become very nasal throughout the years, though. Her voice was so smooth in songs like Stop or Too Much and now she sounds like a cat.

[@lhuzlife498]

I agree with you.

[@jaissapierce4057]

Xenon Doro in my opinion her voice is even better as she got older but I guess it’s matter of opinion

[@anonymouspeacefulperson6199]

Xenon Doro probably because someone at the manufacturing company keeps putting moulds and cat hair allergens in my food! Produces a nasal sound!

[@obibraxton2232]

Agreed! Very unique tone aswell

[@ChristianYoshi]

It’s pretty rare to find someone who ranks Victoria higher than Geri and it’s cool to see coming from a vocal coach since I always thought Geri was the weakest Spice Girl vocal wise. Your list is the same exact as mine. :). I agree whole heartedly with what you said about Mel B as well. Mel C is just incredible. X3. She and Emma were always my favorites.

[@jaywest3734]

Victoria actually does have a more pleasant voice than Geri. Geri sounds like she's talking when she's singing.

[@natsohigh5552]

I've always ranked Victoria above Geri. Her low harmonies are really nice when she doubles up with Mel B

[@brycel4692]

Victoria knows how to harmonize...Geri does not. Competition over.

[@tandyandy8819]

Victoria has always been a better vocalist than Geri. Victoria struggled with her vocal control (why she was great some places and not great in other places) but Geri never truly sang. Geri mostly talked during her songs. Geri had more control over her vocals though. Even though she couldn't carry a tune, her voice appears clear and stronger.

[@Victoria-iu5sb]

@@jaywest3734 I said exactly the same thing in my comment, and I hadn't even read yours! That Victoria has a pleasant tone and |Geri talks rather than sings.

[@soaribb32]

Geri was the personality

[@ashleylane1xo]

Mel C has always had the strongest voice out of the group. I frequently listen to her solo stuff. I agree, she’s got a unique voice.

[@jeanfelipe1505]

Emma sounds like an angel...she makes me smilling everytime!

Yes and you can clearly understand the lyrics.

[@sailorkeyblader]

Mel C was always practicing and training her voice. Working out and singing, eating right...Vocals survived the 90s, 2000s, and 2010s

[@musicislife.2602]

So true. She knows her passion is singing and making music. She knows how to take care of her gift. 👑🙌

[@hazelangus]

Definitely Mel C is best. I really like how distinctive her voice is as well. Mel C's also done the musical theatre thing, playing Mary Magdalen in Jesus Christ Superstar. I liked her for that, because that's not particularly easy and showed she has acting chops as well. Victoria's done very well with the business side of things and that's something Geri gave her a lot of credit for - Geri said nobody was ever going to be able to rip the Spice Girls off with Victoria in the band. I'm not sure who I'd put last out of Geri and Victoria. Geri did a lot better when it came to record sales and chart positions I think, but I think that was achieved more by Geri being such an unstoppable force of nature than her being a better singer. A PR team would have found Geri quite easy to sell because she was so good at selling herself (that sounds wrong), probably the easiest because of her charisma and naughtiness. Victoria was never a crowd-pleaser and was really quite shy, hence why she was the pouty, standoffish Posh Spice character. Both of them did live performances as you've shown, and I think good on them for trying, because that must have been incredibly scary, especially since they both knew they weren't top vocalists and knew they'd also get slated no matter what they did.

[@Mimigoss]

Really wise point of view 🙌

[@michellecosta3267]

There wasn't any surprise because I always thought the same as you. Mel C is just amazing.

[@sweetnsaucy8840]

Mel C hands down!! I loved her solo music! Her voice is actually one of my favorite of all time. Just something about her

[@mykello]

Perfect ranking, very much on point! :)

[@carolcoates3750]

Mel C all the way! 'Northern Star' was a massive solo success and she has done better than all the others put together as a solo artist! Lovely voice whether Rock or ballad.

[@clarewarp1384]

Carol Coates I love her duet with Bryan Adams 💗💗

[@bernicegaze3354]

@@clarewarp1384 Yes that worked really well the duet with Bryan Adams, great song.

[@AllenMQuinn]

I was always confused why it didn't explode in North America when the material was so damn strong

[@danjam79]

Love this! Agree with the listing. I remember in 1997 after the first live gig in Istanbul one paper ranked them in three levels: Best: Mel C Then: Emma and Mel B Last: Geri and Victoria

[@melanie--138]

Mel B her voice is very underrated. Its probably true that she had not had much training but during the Spice Girls she had this beautiful low tone you couldnt miss. It sounded very dark, very gorgeous You can say that in the song "Stop" you hear Mel C and Emma but they got famous with the song WANNABE wich is a Mel B song!! Wannabe is Mel B and Mel B is Wannabe.

[@jedmartins]

Mel anie that doesn’t mean anything we’re talking about best voices and not about who sang wannabe the best. I agree Mel b had a great low tone specially in viva forever but mel c and Emma had the best vocals for sure.

[@Asherz1]

Yes queen read them!!!

[@melanie--138]

Jed Martin Yes I know. Im just saying her voice is underrated

[@Ariel-i3m]

Mel B the best ❤️❤️❤️

[@Bleepurchin]

Totally agree. Mel B added the depth and soul to the overall tone of the group. Emma B was the sparkle and clarity of the sound. Whereas Mel C is huuuugely overrated IMO. ‘Winey’ is putting it mildly! 😅

[@CaapriceTube1]

MEL C/SPORTY was always the one I thought had potential as a kid. She had that song with Bryan Adams and Left Eye from TLC in the late-90s/early-2000s aswell, good tunes. Totally agree with your choices and the order they’re in. Should do boy bands next; New Kids, Backstreet, 98 degrees, Nsync, etc

[@damariscanela7740]

CaapriceTube yes she should do boy bands next.

[@jorgedanielsarrinsarrin85]

Mel C definitely! I was 15 when Spice was released and I can say she was the reason why I loved the band! Do you remember her duet with Bryan Adams??? 😍😍😍

[@milaniatrance515]

"When you're gone"☺

[@andreac980]

I do, when you're.gone

[@ClearlyCurtis]

Totally agreed with your choices! Of course, I've been a fan of Melanie C ever since the Spice GIrls and her solo material is absolutely incredible. Both her albums The Sea and Version of Me have to be her best. Thank you for doing these videos!

[@patricksabel3958]

Totally agree with your rating, although the video of Victoria you used was very surprising! She sounds better than I remember.

[@dontellahfonne]

Melanie C for best vocalist obviously then Mel B and Emma then Victoria and then Geri. Geri makes up for it though with her personality, creativity and passion.

[@vzlacesar]

i agreed 100 % with you! Mel C is the best, that's why she was always my fave, i have all of her albums!! i love her voice

[@themaximum97]

Mel C has always been the powerhouse of the group, but Emma and Mel B always held their own as well. Great video! you got a new subscriber! Have you ever considered reacting to Poppy’s music. She has a really high vocal range so it would be interesting to see what you think.

[@lisq34]

Emma has the most wonderful, pure, angelic voice

[@JessicaNicoleFaust]

Mel C has continued to be the most professional in vocal lessons... even to this day. So I definitely agree! Mel C💪✌🏼

[@joaohelder6791]

Absolutely Just your top 5! I agree with your opinion, Melanie C is the best voice of the group!

[@petegtorcan]

I like Geri’s “CD voice”; it’s got a great pop sound after it goes thorough production. She’s good at songs and styles that call for more quirkinesses, attitude and fun.

[@AloudSpiceMinogueBextor]

Mel C and Emma the best of course... Free Me album from Emma my favourite as solo 🧡 Love from Chile

[@DouglasSantosdeArruda]

I agree with you. Mel C and Emma are the strongest and Victoria and Geri are the weakest. I couldn't agree more with youur opinion about Mel B. Please, react to Little Mix!!!

[@jspooner4352]

Douglas Santos de Arruda yes little mix please, they are shocking

[@ljoxleyofficial8119]

[@MrJacksparrow07]

Geri comes bottom singing and dancing for me but she has that star quality. My ranking (same as honest vocal coach): 1. Mel C 2. Emma 3. Mel B 4. Victoria 5. Geri

[@cdn1024]

I agree with what you said. Geri is still and will always be my favorite though. It’s her personality and spirit that entertain me.

[@vica1104]

Agree 100% with your ranking. In the earlier days it would have been 1)Mel C 2)Mel B 3)Emma 4)Victoria 5)Geri but now Mel B is definitely below Emma.

[@kellie5476]

Yes, absolutely agree with this ranking.

[@jessiklopez745]

1.Mel C 2.Mel B 3.Emma 4.Victoria 5.Geri

[@carol__456]

For me too

[@xNorthernStar]

This is the right order to me, Emma isn't that good

[@indigothecat]

I think that the skill levels are closer than we think, if Victoria had more confidence and gusto, she could probably have done better, and if Geri had learned to hold back more and focus on vocal discipline, she would have done better. Mel B. is still quite strong in my opinion, and I've heard some rough live performances by Emma, granted though it tends to happen when she's singing solo and attempted to dance. Back in 2019 though in their mini-tour, all the girls I thought did quite well! Of course, the one singer of the group that was always consistently good was Mel C., and it makes sense! The other 4 girls say that she was always the disciplinarian of the group who took practice and rehearsals the most seriously. During the rehearsals for the 2007 tour, there's a rehearsal clip of her scolding the girls and gently reminding them to take things seriously. She's a very hard working woman! EDIT: That said, I think I mostly agree with your list, and if you gave bonus points for the girls who sang harmony (Victoria often taking low harmony and Emma virtually always taking the high harmony) the list makes sense to me.

[@nitzan4904]

i agree, this is how i rate them. melanie c specifically stood out for me since the very beggining, she really can do pretty much anything with her voice and she kept improving through the years

[@musicislife.2602]

And she is the most hardworking when it comes to their solo musical careers.

Yay love it mine has always been the same as yours. Saw them live in the 90s they were brill with lots of energy thank you ❤️👌👍🎶

Hey there. Just watched this clip Mel C is awesome and gets my motor running lol i totally agree with you there ;o)

[@MCNutters]

Yup. Melanie C is the one with a real musical talent and have loved her solo career. Her back catalogue has some real stand outs. She's really built her own audience and is in her element on stage with her band in tow. The other girls are wonderful as part of the group as they were about something more than just musical ability.

[@Christine_1985]

Emma hands down for me!💕💕 She has a beautiful singing voice.🎶😘

[@DamienPhillipsUK]

I agree. I think posh spice could train her voice more if she wanted to but she’s not a confident singer due to being a perfectionist and maybe stage fright of singing live. But finally she’s one of my favourites especially in viva forever and I loved her solo album she should have done more and grew more confident. Obviously fashion was her niche but she has a beautiful tonal voice

[@karstkuitenbrouwer9286]

1. Mel C, as what most non Spice fans would say, "the only one who can sing." The only one who still has a music career. I love powerful voices like Whitney, Mariah or Celine Dion so for me, Mel C's tone is pleasant and distinct. She is top tier.

[@MrGamerChange]

After seeing them live, I definitely agree that Mel C has the best voice.

[@sakuraitonen9513]

Without a doubt Melanie C. 😎 Talent wise. Amazing, true vocalist. Emma comes second. Very soft voice and has bigger range as a vocalist than Mel B, Victoria and Geri. Mel B used to have one of the most beautiful harmonies in the group. The live version of Viva Forever on one of the tours between her and Melanie C. Victoria and Geri are definetely the weakest talent but both are very popular and they have a good share of star power within the group and personality.
