Spice Girls - Giving You Everything (BBC Documentary 2007)

[@teacherkate1]

Victoria is so resilient- I think she was treated the worst in the media. It was all “Posh doesn’t sing,” “Posh never smiles,” doubts about her marriage, her intelligence - everything. She never complained, most of it was lies, she fronted it out and she’s now arguably the most successful in her individual career, has branched out into lots of areas and the marriage and family is still in tact. She deserves more credit. Her autobiography was one of the most enlightening, endearing things I have read.

[@Mitjitsu]

What hurt her was she never had a solo in her debut song. Giving the illusion she couldn't sing. Also, being married to someone who was even more famous than her also didn't help. Still, I think she was always going to be the most successful after Spice Girls and probably would have been if nothing ever came of the group.

[@nicosantana7277]

@@Mitjitsu Posh used to ask her dad to drop her off away from school because she was embarrassed by their wealth so considering she was born into wealth she already had a one up on success

[@lordpickle8424]

I'm a native guy from Canada (as in Native American) and remember my parents getting a satellite dish in the late 90s, there was a channel on it that had their videos running non-stop and the Spice Girls were my first glimpse of the outside world. Their songs and videos instantly take me back to those pre-internet days of my youth. "2 become 1" is always the song that hits hardest though, the nostalgia is almost too much sometimes.

[@ellenwilling]

My 1st concert was The Spice Girls in July of 1998 in Illinois. I was 8 years old, and my parents were so awesome for taking me to that show. That started my journey of seeing live music and wow what a journey it's been. I remember being sad Geri wasn't there but also incredibly excited to see those 4 women in the flesh. GIRL POWER!

[@theartsyzoologist]

"We wanted to be the biggest girl band in the world" statement paid in full ten fold!!! There will never be anyone that could repeat the level of success and impact these girls made.

[@zipperXie]

She was not my favorite. (My favorite was Emma, who's pretty much represents everything I've never been but wanted to be, hah) but I've definitely been the most *curious* about Mel C. Watching old interviews (and this documentary), if I had to pick a Spice Girl to sit down and have a beer with or binge wawtch some Netflix with, she'd be the galpal I'd most want on the couch next to me. She's so GENUINE.

[@n_bld]

24 years later and i'm still so in love with them! I've never realised how much of an impact it's had on my dance moves :D love that they made a movie to last for the masses

[@NM-ex3ws]

I watched this when it first aired before the reunion tour in '07 and Mel C really stood out for me she was my favourite Spice for her personality and genuine good vibe and even today I feel the same after watching it. Alot of people feel that Geri was bullied out of the group and as a result was the most damaged and that is ok, that is an opinion but here is mine. For me Mel C is the one who battled the most especially post break-up and the one still carrying alot of hurt about the past in this documentary. Her "I dont remember being that person" comment really hit me hard and it shows how much it effected her. She is always so honest with any interviewer but here when touching on the reasons for Geri feeling she had to leave the group Mel seems to be unwilling to engage in a conversation about the lead up to Geri leaving. You can see Mel was so damaged and hurt even up until the reunion tour in 2007 she was always the most vocal about never reuniting and even when approached she was reluctant to do it again. She has put so much work into her recovery it makes you think what really went down amoung them all and what issues they all walked away with from the constant pressure. They where the biggest band in the world at one point and that kind of media attention and fame had to have an impact. Im so glad they all worked past it and got back together for the reunion tours. And whatever the line-up for the future, heres' to another trip to Spice World 👑🤞🏻

[@ishiruji]

I think we as fans never made justice to Victoria skills. I remember when that whole thing about singing started to show and how Posh was always the "bad" voice 'cause she never sang the high notes. And nowadays when I hear Spice Girls songs, Victoria's voice is ALL AROUND the songs doing the lower notes, putting all the harmonies together and doing a lot of bridges for the refrains to shine. That elegant voice embracing everything. That's a detail that made this group so special.

I love the dynamic of this group. Each one brought in different flavour, strengths in the group. I guess many fans can relate to them because they represent what average people can also achieve success in life !(They are not 6 ft tall, and they don;t sing like Celine Dion but they made songs that everyone can sing to! ) Their confidence level is over the roof! sending positive message to younger generation back then that if you believe in something and work hard for it, you can achieve anything in life!

[@KitsuVampyria]

I think the reasons why I was so connected to Posh and Sporty Spice was because they were the "book ends" as Victoria expressed it. As a little kid I often became the book end. And I was content with it (until I was only a doormat). I also loved Victoria's mysterious quietness and often dark clothes and I loved Mel C's tomboyishness and authentic aura. The whole group was special to me tho. I bonded with my sisters and childhood friends through them.

"Girls could relate to us, none of us were six foot tall, skinny, gorgeous girls. We were normal looking girls" - Victoria nailed it! It was 80% that! and their positivity, friendship and cartoon-like styles was the perfect recipe that no one ever tried before or after them! They weren't a coreography, they weren't trying to be sexy. They were fun, pretty and their own character! it was the bomb at the time. Of course, I still love them, they can continue getting together for reunions but even today, they, themselves are not even the same. They act different, shy, more reserved...maybe its the age but the point is that their energy mixed with the moment! it'll never be 100% the same.

I still love the end the most because their first show of this tour was in Vancouver and I was there, and it was so incredibly emotional. You can see in the background all the Canucks symbols, solidifying that they were here. I take honour in that, and I hope that when the Britain tour is done in 2019 they consider doing a world tour and coming back here.

[@4uTender]

Best girl band ever! Not only did they give us some memorable dance hits which will be played for generations, but the group also had a personality (something other bands didn't, they were what the creator told them to be or to hide who they were at all). I think that highlighting each girl's personality was that thing that will make this group go down in history. They were just girls like you and me...dancing, having fun and being naughty every now and then, something any girl can relate to. Had they posed like divas as other singers/performers they would not have reached so deep into the fans. We all wanted to have a bit of the baby spice's sweetness, looking slim like Victoria (any human being would feel fat when looking at her, even models!), sexy and daring like ginger, athletic like sporty and feisty like Mel. All of them together made the girl any 90's female dreamed of being. Long live the British queens of pop and may the message of girl power continues to echo in future generations.

[@tiffprendergast]

Ivelisse Rodriguez Nunez yup

[@xxxTIN0xxx]

There was no need to make replacements though. They successfully continued touring and making music as a four piece. They finished the tour with "Live at Wembley" which is their greatest show ever, had big #1 hits(Holler, Goodbye, LLLTW), then the Earls Court Show and finally the Platinum album "Forever". After a lengthy hiatus they reunited as a five piece in middle 00's. It was a total different story for the Sugababes, they had no choice. Two members don't make a group, so they had to add a third member. Their problem is that, during the whole history of the group, they made three replacements and eventually all the original members were replaced 😂.

[@johnp5836]

I get what you all are saying but still... you all saw that bit when they talked about performing at Wembley. Victoria doesn’t even have to do the full show. Just pop up once during one of the Wembley shows just so we have something with all 5 at the Stadium.

[@rayoflight6505]

13 sold out stadium dates prove that the public don't care if Victoria is there or not. I know I don't care she was always my least fave and the Spice Girls without her is certainly not as bad as they were without Geri who gives the group spark and energy.

[@Pancakeshouse85]

I appreciate the fact that they knew Wannabe had a time limit and they needed that second single to propel them further before they turned into a one hit wonder. They were very smart to make the moves they made.

[@leoapp1223]

Usually in a pop group, 2/3 of the members are more popular than the others. Like Supremes, BSB, NSync, Destinys Child, etc. But for Spice Girls, each member is memorable, and has own fans. And most pop groups didnt write their own songs. Spice Girls did writing! And to this day, globally, they are still the best selling girlgroup ever. Even other 2 huge girlgroups like TLC and Destiny's Child were not as massive. In US, TLC and Destiny's Child were probably bigger. But Spice Girls is still the biggest non US girlgroup to conquer US.

@@lizmunt9116 it’s true

[@jaimevillanuevavillanueva1134]

Destinys Child and TLC were way bigger on the US but Spice Girls were massive worldwide

[@rachelsarbeng6476]

I’m from the us, and you’re 100% correct. For us tlc and destiny’s child ruled over in the states but spice girls really ruled the world.

[@ivanivez7456]

So true. Spice Girls didn’t have a lead singer. One of the things I liked about the group

[@sueb2898]

I still LOVE them in 2019! Anyone else?

[@tiffprendergast]

Sue B meee

[@ingridnorman7919]

Grateful to have had them and girl power being a part of my childhood. My favorite at the time was Posh spice.

[@memyselfi8461]

This is one of the better documentarys on the group and everything. ❤

[@bmbecoledelanguespourlesen7965]

The Spice Girls are one of the biggest selling girl group of all time with over 85 million records sold. we love you so much and i'm thier fan for 22 years

[@natsohigh5552]

They aren't one of the best selling...they are the best selling lol

[@tiffprendergast]

BMB ÉCOLE DE LANGUES POUR LES ENFANTS ANNABA same

[@tiffprendergast]

NATsoHIGH ! Yeah baby

[@zipperXie]

@@natsohigh5552 While technically true, it's by a very small margin. Both The Spice Girls and TLC have sold over 85 million albums worldwide to date. That means there's a MAXIMUM differential of 1.18% between the two, depending on where in that last million they both fall.

[@Vanderearden]

@@zipperXie: TLC has achieved those sales numbers with 25 years and 5 albums. The Spice Girls achieved those sales numbers with 4 years and 3 albums. Those "Flash in the pan" record sales by the Spice Girls is what's truly amazing and often overlooked. And honestly, it's just 2 albums in 2 years that attribute to the bulk of that phenomenal sales figure.

[@Geo_Babe]

I am now 35 and these women changed my life as a kid in such a profound way that I can’t articulate it in text…. I’m an American and their reach and message bridged geographical gaps and connected an entire planet. Im not sure the industry as a whole will ever see this sort of thing again, as there isn’t the private and creative space to organically make it like this, as they did. It was a moment in time like Damon Dominique has stated below me, and we were all so very lucky to be there for it. x

[@llluuuyyyooo]

Who is or who was the industry? Wtf happened to them?all they died? Who manages the industry now? Their sons? Or another people? I mean, today there is only, mostly noise, swearing and using/discarding women as "music". Its maybe a way to protect and keep safe a genre or the real music by creating something different with very poor quality? Sorry to write this to you but u mentioned the industry and theres a lot of questions about it cause nostalgia is here? But for sure the '90s were magical.

[@dani-ol5xb]

They will never know the effect they've had on so many young peoples childhoods. Honestly the nostalgia and heartwarming memories these women bring me is just beyond. 90s were just the best.

[@tinkbyers1541]

Spice girls were my whole life! I had the VHR went to a few concerts. These girls where my whole childhood very grateful

[@Aedir]

This was my childhood, I grew up listening to them and I still have their cd's :D I remember going to the cinema and watch their movie as well. I loved them! Great music! I was so lucky that this happened when it did and I was able to enjoy it! Thank you, Spice Girls, for some of my happiest childhood memories :)

[@asab167]

My God. They were HUGE. A blip in time but so explosive! I was so in love, the excitement I felt as a kid was UNREAL! Absolutely memorized by them.

[@SuperFrise]

This brings back so many memories of my life in the 90s. Wow!! Thanks for posting it. I had so much fun back then. I was so mad that Geri left, I knew it would be the end of the Spice Girls. Like most groups, when one leaves, another leaves and then it's never ever the same again.

[@F1Kamel_1992]

They're my all time favourite girl band and this documentary film is absolutely awesome

[@tiffprendergast]

Kamel Safar Zitoun ditto

[@AntsCanada]

I remember dreaming of meeting them personally as a kid and being their friend! I woke up sad it was all a dream.

[@eteresa3598]

That was Adele’s dream

[@justagirpup]

Didn't expect to see you here

[@biancabumblebee3340]

Well not really. Before social media, there was media. More people bought magazines and tabloids. Almost every home was at the least subscribed to the newspaper. People seem to forget that star systems existed before TikTok lmfao.

[@adisynnefransen1066]

AntsCanada Honestly I’ve had that dream

[@SydneyVengeanceTV]

Same they came to be on their bus from the movie haha

[@nicolasweet4725]

I loved every minute of this documentary. Spice girls will always be my favourite girl group

[@shanesutcliffe6099]

Brings back memories of my teenage years. Better times. Before responsibilities and before the world went nuts

[@jambogb]

Nov 2020 - I am still in love with those girls!

[@danitydon6976]

if i could freeze time it would have been anywhere between the release of their first 2 albums, best times ever!

[@Marissa-ys4qp]

the union jack dress is iconic and contrary to whoever said it was "racist"...it's a nationality and shows pride in one's country

[@carmenbrown3437]

I was 33 when they became known. I really liked their songs. I still do.

[@sweetdecember6657]

I remember the late 90s all of a sudden, my childhood. I loved them, so sad when Ginger spice left the group..

[@princessoftides87]

I never cried more at a concert than at that reunion tour.

[@almajensen6878]

Bruh i swear sporty spice really be the less/least problematic girl in this group and she’s just straight up vibing

[@violetgirl1996]

Spice Girls were huge because it was built on truth and spirit, not just money and manufactures, but long-line hardcore heat. They call themselves normal but to the world, they are extraordinary ♡♤♡♤♤♤♤♡♡♡♡

[@dayshawnrichards5803]

I wish the spice girls could have sing forever they are so amazing
