Spice Up Your Life is an undeniable force of pop music, Wannabe is an enigmatic debut and Stop is a classic - but Overload and Sound of the Underground are cooler debuts than Wannabe; Sexy! No No No, Something Kinda Ooooh, Freak Like Me, Hole In The Head etc are just as in your face as Spice Up Your Life and so on and so forth. They were good for their time and they were top of the pile of most memorable pop acts but all of that has to do with their personalities and very little to do with their music. The music was secondary to everything else in Spice World.

Love this one, I found Let Love Lead the Way better though.

Say You'll Be There is my personal favourite, but I genuinely love all of their songs.

You can't compare Spice Girls and Girls Aloud music in my opinion, that's two completely different eras of music. Obviously Girls Aloud music sounds better in comparison because of modern technological advances in music production and additional years of inspiration and references. But Girls Aloud probably would never have existed if it weren't for the Spice Girls. The Spice Girls, at the time, were so fresh and like no other girl group that ever existed. And also, don't get me wrong I love Girls Aloud, but they do not have the same star quality and enigmatic personalities the Spice Girls had. Spice Girls knew they were not the most vocally talented but they made up for it in all other areas.

Xenomania is one of the main reasons Girls Aloud was great.

All valid points which I accept but musically, Girls Aloud (and Sugababes) are far superior to Spice Girls, which is where it counts when discussing music, of course. The Spice Girls were about many things and the music they released was secondary to their personalities, the wave of feminism and the other media forays they made. Do you think Geri Halliwell got four #1 singles because she's a fantastic popstar or because she was the first Spice Girl to jump ship because she knew she had to take advantage of how fast paced their careers had been and she wanted to be "the first" at the next step in their career? I'd say the latter. She can't hold a tune to save her life, she knows that better than anyone, she just rode their wave of popularity to the best of her abilities, as they all ended up doing. They're celebrities who happen to be popstars, not the other way round. In that sense, Girls Aloud and Spice Girls are comparable, except not every member of Girls Aloud is determined to be famous (Nadine and Nicola) like the Spice Girls are.

I refuse to even accept PCD as a legitimate girl group. It's Nicole Scherzinger and her troupe of dancers with 1 or 2 who occassionally provide background vocals.
