Spice Girls - Love Thing (Live At Wembley Stadium, London / 1998)

[@jss-318]

Victoria’s vocals are just perfect! I love this music!

[@muddyboots7753]

The reason why this group was and still is the best is because no one is at the center. They all blend in so well.

Mel C is kind of the lead singer. Another album and it would have been Mel C and the backup singers

[@scottie2hottie848]

Why does Love thing slap so hard? The choreography in Love Thing has to be the best of any Spice Girls performance!

[@Teletubbo89]

I like the Istanbul dance routine. I think it's simple and more fun

[@scottie2hottie848]

Franco Lima 🔥 honestly both routines are sooo much fun. Actually that was the original dance routine for whenever they performed Love Thing (Bravo Super Show, A3, Both Istanbul shows) and then they performed Love Thing 3 times in the 1998 tour at Wembley and they came out with this more complex dance routine. Reason being now that Geri was no longer part of the group they definitely were able to spice up their choreography more.

[@Yppopojoj]

At the time, they said when Geri left it actually allowed them to sing more and do more challenging choreography.

[@pcdfan87]

Love Thing snaps with a band, not the cd version. And I love the routine.

[@pcdfan87]

I LOVE how they sound as a 4 some in this show. And Vic's voice is VERY well rested.

[@FransHattingh]

This arrangement of "Love Thing" has always been (and probably always will be) my favourite version of the song. 💜

[@Whippy99]

These five ordinary British girls conquered the world in budget costumes and with simple choreography. No bad language, sleaze or massive egos. Just talent, relatability and total belief in their girl power message. 🥰🇬🇧

@@antoniofaroppa4347 ... vero, tuttavia 11 mesi prima ad Istanbul avevano eseguito per la prima volta Love Thing in questa versione diciamo così, 'simil-funk' (quasi identica a questa qui di Wembley), pochissimo diversa e proprio soltanto in cose minime. Erano in cinque, il loro primo vero concerto, una grinta con un qualcoa di speciale che riesce difficile esprimere a parole, e che probabilmente non si è più ripetuto. Qui a Wembley è davvero un concerto splendido, ma ha chiaramente il gusto di un '... arrivederci, torneremo sulla scena ma sarà tutto decisamente diverso... senza dubbio'. Come ha detto Mel C in un'intervista neppure troppo tempo fa, "...la partenza di Geri è stata, in pratica, l'inizio del declino per noi''.

Bet when they were filming the Wannabe video they couldn't even dream of playing multiple nights at Wembley Stadium! I'm so happy it worked so well for them and I'm grateful to have been swept up in Spice Mania. I was lucky enough to see all 5 of them in concert at the very first UK concert of the Spiceworld Tour in 1998. After that, Geri became more and more distant and reserved. We were some of the last people to ever see her iconic red hair with the front blonde streaks!

.... hai visto il video di Istanbul di un anno prima (Ottobre 1997) con 'Love Thing' eseguita nello stesso modo? Persino migliore secondo me... non saprei dire esattamente in che cosa, ma migliore. Forse una leggera differenza nella parte strumentale, oppure il loro primissimo vero concerto e quindi una 'magia' speciale che a Wembley non si è ripetuta... qui erano ormai stanche fisicamente e psicologicamente dopo 28 - 29 mesi sotto i riflettori di tutto il mondo, un'avventura condotta a ritmi di lavoro maniacali e quasi assurdi.

[@francescofissore161]

1:54, GODDESS Mel C's slim but impressively toned body with abdominals in evidence when under strain... looks like perfectly smoothed marble. Her self-discipline in that incredible, hyper-frantic span of Spice Girls' heydays (especially the whole 1997 and 1998) when she routinely underwent heavy diets and physical exercices, simply deserves 1,000% admiration. All of them in fact were in stressful times due to protracted, heavy workloads with only the very least of rest. In 1998 alone, 98 full concerts in 14 European countries and through the USA were actually compressed into less than 7 months - the whole, together with a lot more committments of every kind. All what these girls earned back then, they fully deserved it.

[@nicosantana7277]

It wasn’t self discipline as much as it was an eating disorder. She mentions it in the Giving You Everything documentary if you want to check it out.

[@francescofissore161]

@@nicosantana7277 ...the matter doesn't change - the whole thing was a magnificent show of self-discipline though. Not to mention her obsessive gym activity everyday, everywhere, no matter the time and/or location (if I think at the time needed to do everything she wished to do, outside the mere nature of their required committments). This does mean, simply, a great self-discipline - as clearly admitted and stated in the great book "Wannabe - how Spice Girls reinvented the pop fame" by D. Sinclair.
