I'm a HUGE fan of the Spice Girls.
It's weird but it's weird when you think that you've been living through a moment like 1996, when Spice Girls, BSB, Hanson and all that stuff appeared. Girls going crazy, magazines with their faces in everywhere, dolls, cd's, posters, t-shirts. They all were fucking phenomenons.
At that time I didn't know shit about music. They were the first musical band I decided was my favourite(my mom used to listen to Elton John, Caetano Veloso, while my father listened to Led Zeppelin, King Crimson, Jimi Hendrix and The Beatles.)
Now, 10, 11 years later I listen to them and seriously find awesome arrangements in their songs (of course, they didn't do them. So those arrangements didn't directly come out of them.) because since I took guitar lessons and started recording music myself I saw and understood music in a completely different way.
One thing people really need to admit is that they weren't like the other phenomenons at the moment. There were like 4 or 5 bands like the Backstreet Boys. They all had a latin kind of guy (or black guy), the rebel one, the classy one, the blonde stupid one. Their songs were all the same.
I didn't know what commercial products were back then, but now I see it and I don't see Spice Girls as one of them in such an obvious way. I mean, they were. But they weren't so fucking obvious.
OK. Somebody told me about this thread and I had to say something ahsjdhsaj

I'm seeing them January 24th! HSJAHSJA
10 years later than I thought. But that tends to happen in Argentina...
