Overview

In the mid-1990s the Spice Girls burst onto the music scene in towering platform shoes and promptly dominated the radio waves with a string of joyously catchy chart-topping anthems about female friendship. While other groups aimed for uniformity, the Spice Girls were unrefined but infectiously fun, with five distinct personalities: Scary, Baby, Ginger, Posh, and Sporty. By pairing their boundless charm with irresistible pop tunes, the Spice Girls cemented their status as icons in the annals of music history, where they remain the best-selling girl group of all time. Relive the heady days of Spicemania by taking a deep dive into the group’s discography, exploring everything from their smash hits to their underrated gems. Spice Girls: Song by Song goes behind the scenes to examine the genesis, development, and significance of each track, while revisiting major milestones in the band’s career, including their formation, their fight for creative control, their subsequent rise to superstardom, and the pressures of fame.
