If you think about how much vinyl they’ve released over the last 3 years
Spice (White Reissue)
Spiceworld (Reissue)
Forever (First Time)
Greatest Hits (First Time)
Greatest Hits (Picture Disc)
Wannabe 25
Spice 25 (5 solo covers)
Spice 25 (Zoetrope)
Spiceworld 25 (Clear)
Spiceworld 25 (Picture Disc)
Spiceworld 25 (2LP)
That’s 15 releases, when from 2015 onwards all we had was the standard Spice in circulation. I am grateful their label have started creating these releases, even if they are ugly and don’t offer much new, it’s nice to have new physical media after years of having nothing.

I’m getting the cd box set and that’s it.

Also, the live album that we’ve been “clamouring” for is from Birmingham which is not represented on this set at all.

That would take a crumb of effort so I doubt it.
The silver background coloured vinyl ‘1L-P’ is pretty gorgeous. Much better than Spice25 which was just tacky looking.
It’s all a bit meh tough I’m not crazy for the T Shirts

That red t-shirt using an Emma fake blend is hilarious.
A Dolby Atmos version should be coming.
I'm just really gutted by all this, Spiceworld as an album and era is like the peak for me when it comes to pop and why I adore it still to this day. Have I got to wait for the 50th anniversary, I'll be fucking 60!

Whilst I truly dread to think what Forever 25 will look like (assuming we'll get it), it's really shameful that the true sum of "new" stuff that we haven't heard through leaks in this release is two live recordings and a party mix. We thought Spice 25 was bad, but at least it gave us an unreleased track, two unheard demos and the Love Thing mix which some people did have but wasn't widely circulated.
The thought that this might be all we ever get is so disheartening. One option would be to reissue the Greatest Hits for the 30th anniversary and give us some more breadcrumbs but I don't see them ever doing a "rarities" album because they clearly don't think the material is strong enough. I don't think any of the demos we've heard from the early years stand up to the songs we know and love, but they're still cute in their own right and deserve to be heard. I personally prefer Strong Enough to Feed Your Love, it's madness that they couldn't even stretch to including that somewhere when it's all over YouTube.

According to the description on Amazon Italy,
an unreleased version of Viva Forever, the John Themis Ambient Mix
According to Discogs:
Viva Forever (Themis Ethnic Latino Ambient Mix) 5:39
According to @andru track lengths:
23. Viva Forever (John Themis Ethnic Latino Ambient Mix) - 5:43
So, maybe it's a longer version of the mix... lol
Random thought but... they had the right 'S' font for that lyric video but the wrong 'S' font for the 'Spice' album re-release. Odd.
Actually that was a great lyric video. Where credit is due. I loved the "shot" with the pink ring pulls. Taking me right back.
Perched to bop to "If It's Loving On Your Mind (2100 Remastered)" from hell.
