The first time I was drinking in King Solomon's Reef and I saw a chick play them on the juke box and all the girls in the bar started doing these dance moves, I knew I'd have to get that and play it to death. I'm pretty sure they were older than 7 or 8, or they had some pretty good fake IDs... Sure enough, it paid the rent, and kept my bed warm. What more can anyone expect from pop music?


hahaha
well,
i'm sure that some people over 10 liked them aswell.
i am not saying it's nocive to like them. that's what the others think.
we think that it's nocive because we don't like it.
that's not fair at all.
it's like when people talking shit about madonna's 80-ish era. i think it's ridiculous. it's amazing to dance and sing to at new year's eve, but that's MY opinion because I wasn't even born when those songs by madonna were being played in every radio station and made sense for EVERYONE , EVERYWHERE. it's all about the context.

if you wanna be my lover
you've gotta get with my friends
friendship lasts forever
friendship never ends


That's like a song from the PBS show ghostwriter.
wuh-wuh-wuh-word

Well, I still get paid every year by my former boss in Olympia to head up there for NYE and dust off the Madonna discs, so I know exactly what you are talking about, and I thank you. Mind, when those Madonna songs were new, Sonic Youth were playing them at their noisiest of shows, and people thought they were being ironic. But they weren't exactly.

Actually, what it always makes me think of is the song from the Repo Man soundtrack by Sy Richardson. Here, compare and contrast:

"If you wanna be my lover
you've gotta get with my friends"

"Think your girlfriend loves you? Guess again. One way to tell if a woman really loves you. If she’ll have your dog. I’m a bad man."

I like a couple of songs but the rest bores me more than watching Baby Spice scrubbing floors for £ 3 per hour.

I went and actually saw Spice World in the theatre until about halfway through, had to bolt. Bleeeeeeeeeechhhhhhh!

Victoria Beckham looks like a fucking skeleton with boobs made of plastic.

The definition of the word "disgusting".

Westlife, Il Divo unmitigated turd. The point is to listen to the good music Mr & Bowels, rather than whatever you think is 'cool'. You can't be cool when you die of MRSA, remember that. When will you fashionistas ever learn?

You still haven't told me how old you were when the Spice Girls appeared....

I do not remember what year they first stepped off the corpo-music factory production line. let me research.
Their first album came out in 1996. That was 5 years after I graduated High school, and the year I got married so I was 23 years old.

yes yes quite, but that doesn't mean doing the opposite either, listening what you think is "uncool" just to cause a stir.

Iain 08.21.2007 11:13 AM

Indeed. I think a couple of their singles were ok but a lot of it was deeply, deeply irritating and continues to be to this day. The first single is pretty much unlistenable.

Girl Power!

Baby Spice Nipples
 


Scary spice preggo with eddie murphy's love child

You're a riot.

kingcoffee 08.22.2007 01:28 AM

Why on earth would you ever like that group? I could understand if this was 1997 and you were a 7 year old girl, but now and still...???

And Rob INstigator is right, don't ever tell anyone you like the Spice Girls.

Most people would take you out and tar and feather you. Not me, though. I'd just look at ya funny.
