What can I say... I feel like I'm 10 years old again after watching them at the ceremony!

They looked good but the song mix was terrible.

Amazing. Also, as a huge fan, I really don't want them to release any new music. It would be awkward and embarrassing and they don't really fit into the musical landscape anymore. I'm totally down with them reforming every few years for things like the musical launch, big events and the odd tour though.

They look stunning after all those years, it seems like they don't age lol :'(
And I agree with you Billy: there's not really a music scene for the Spice Girls anymore. Besides, their legacy and musical impact would be beter preserved if no more new music was released. Let their previous work stand as a proof of what they were as group and let their music be cherished forever, their time has passed, but their music will always be with us :'(

I'd like an album of covers... songs from the motown era... but not original material, no.

I do wish they'd do another tour though. I didn't even know any of their songs (except "Wannabe") back in 2007 when they did the reunion tour, so I never got to see them live. :(

They looked great and the performance was alot of fun. The medley is available as a studio version on iTunes, but its album only when you get "A Symphony of British Music..."

Spice is #164 on the iTunes album chart. I'm surprised that more people are buying that than Greatest Hits, since it doesn't have "Spice Up Your Life" on it.
Also, "Wannabe" is #122 with a 69 cent discount.

I love that after all the shit they copped for being just a girl band, they were probably one of THE highlights of the closing and have managed to age so well, both music and in body.
Their brand of pop was so cool. I believe it was so successful as people of all ages could enjoy it. It was pop but... I loved it. Say You Will Be There, Who Do You Think You Are, Viva Forever... you can't tell me songs like this are just throw away tunes? They are pop masterpieces. And the Spice Girls manages to have two albums full of them.
I hope history looks back on them in the same way. They were my youth. They introduced me into the world of POP and music in general.
I hope they can reunite every so often and age their label and brand well, as they have been doing these past few years.

The girls look wonderful. Their music is extremely timeless and enjoyable. Funny enough, my copies of "Spiceworld" and "Spice" came in the mail from Amazon last week (I have "Forever", but somehow lost the first 2 albums) and I'm listening to the music now. Nostalgia!!
Victoria is such a sour puss hehe.

I love that they ended in the same formation as their iconic Brit Awards performance. With 120 possible Spice combinations, I'm sure it can't be a coincidence. Little touches like that, along with the bigger ones, slayed me last night.

Loved it so so so much. I wish they'd do another reunion tour, but I heard they said this was their last performance ever.
