I do ackowledge their presence in my youth, as does anyone of the time period. As to whether or not yr in any position to judge the music of the Spice Girls... care to explain why you aren't??? Of course you are, otherwise, you are apparently living under yr own fascist rule.
To summarize*, of course they were an "important" part of youth culture throughout the 1990's, but that in no way justifies saying they are somehow worth praise or... fuck it, a reunion tour. It's hogwash, and even amongst the people that are going to see any Spice Girls reunion crap (probably teenage girls and the like) it is still about maintaining some hip irony status... seriously. Irony is hip everywhere, not just in the independent music world. Nobody actually cares to see or hear it, they just want to be able to say they have seen or hear it, because that, in this backward-ass society, is totally rad.
And of course, the finale to all my rants and raves, a relation to Nazism and fascism! Nazism was all the rage back in the 30s and so, yet we don't look back on that and say, "Hm, maybe we should give it another shot, some people had fun back then!" **
*summarize my ass! it's longer than the rest of this crap!
**this last bit is kind of a joke... don't take it seriously...
