Spice Girls

What do we think "Too Much (Live in Toronto)" is? Would be weird if it's from 98 as we'll have Emma singing Geri's lines? Or maybe it's from the 2007 tour...?

Yeah that was strange. I guess they want to represent the brief era post Geri however Geri’s part in Too Much was special and never sounded as good with Emma in my opinion.
 
Sometimes I forget that the Spiceworld era actually ended after Geri left and lasted until at least the Autumn of 1998, with the final Wembley concert of the tour.

This track list is dumb […].
Never Give Up, the single that almost was, not getting anything extra is really sad.
They said “give up”.
It's a double-edged sword really. If the last project doesn't do well then it puts the next project under threat, but at the same time supporting these projects also supports the narrative that we'll buy any old shit. I feel a bit resentful having supported Spice 25 that this is what we're given as a "reward".

The "25" project has basically been a vehicle to officially release stuff that was already out there, to the point of even choosing Arnhem and Madrid as shows to pick audio from which are/were readily available on YouTube.

This could have been a labour of love but instead it's the usual disappointment. Melanie C said the other day that the album and film re-release was "more of a Universal thing" so beyond an initial meeting of listening to demos and vetoing them all they've probably had no other involvement.
Whomever is spearheading this project at Universal needs to be fired then. These bonus tracks are such a mess that I just can’t see it not be deliberate. I mean, not even the full b-sides for either era? Come on!
Only positive is Step to Me finally being in the digital world.
The only question now is which version? I’m guessing the album version so the Pepsi single version is no where to be found (unless it’s the “demo version”).
 
As far as we know, Step To Me will get the single treatment and be release ahead of SW25. They could also digital release an EP of it with all its versions.
 
Does anyone have any idea what formats Spiceworld 25 will be released on? I saw that an online store had uploaded and removed something, but wasn't sure what. I had my hopes on the same theme of Spice25, with a coloured vinyl of each SPICE letter on the original cover (dark red Mel B, purple Geri, dark blue Emma, dark green Vic, orange Melanie C) and maybe a picture vinyl of the image that's within the disc tray of the CD with the world/ring logo on the back.. but after this track-listing it's best I don't get my hopes up..

Does anyone have any idea what formats Spiceworld 25 will be released on?
So far we're expecting:

2xLP Vinyl - Disc 1: Spiceworld/Disc 2: Bonus tracks
1xLP Coloured Vinyl - Standard 10 tracks
1xLP Picture Disc Vinyl - Standard 10 tracks
2xCD/Hardbook - Disc 1: Spiceworld/Disc 2: Bonus Tracks

There was also rumours of a double-cassette edition, but these weren't in the deleted listings.
 
I don't think they could be asked to go into the Virgin Vaults for this and like everyone said, just ripped stuff off Youtube.
 
I can find 2 different versions of Step to me:
Step to Me (7" Mix) – 4:05
Step to Me (Japan bonus track) - 4:18
Which one will be track #11 ?

btw,
Too Much (SoulShock & Karlin Remix) 3:54
Stop (Morales Remix) 7:25 or (Morales mix) is different ?
were included in the Greatest Hits remix cd

Quick search: 2 megamix, but they include debut album singles, too...


21:29 - Too long, I suppose


12:51 - Quite long, don't think it fits. It's def fanmade. It includes Holler, too. How can they put a megamix with Holler on SG25 ? Please !

If I look at Discogs, no Spice Girls related items, but a Jiive Bunny album.
Maybe the megamix is new or from the vaults.

I know we all adjusted our expectations after Spice25, but...
