New Spice Girls Video!
Sure, why not? I think the idea behind the video goes something like this: get Geri to do a million crunches and three hundred thousand hours of Pilates; deprive Victoria of food for five years; but Mel B on a reality show where she actually has to run around for eight hours a day; take the just-delivered-a-kid Emma and emphasize the fact that her rack is really big; and hide Melanie C in Ann Wilson's old clothes.
Seriously, what is this, a Wilson Phillips video from fifteen years ago? Put the thin girls in the band in their underwear and throw the other one in in one of Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation era three-quarter length jackets?
Still, I like the fact that they haven't made any weird attempts to update their sound: no spare Timbaland beats, here. It's the same Stannard and Rowe (Standard and Rowe?) pop balladry that we got on "2 Become 1," or "Viva Forever," or "Goodbye." Hopefully, there's a more dance-friendly, uptempo new single one the Greatest Hits album. The DJ threw "Stop" on at a bar I was at last week, and we all sang along and did the cute little dance from the video. Hmm. That may have been the gayest sentence I've ever written.
