Style is all that matters! Regarding the talent of the Spice Girls, obviously they all know how to sing and are expert entertainers. So why do they get such a bad rap? I think it's because of their style, which is so pink, posh, and directed so specifically that a lot of people are not going to like it. I mean these girls are like the Fugazi and Sonic Youth of girly pop music! I love the Spice Girls. Songs like "Say You'll Be There" and "Stop" are classics. You can bet years from now when they play one of those songs on the radio, they'll be some people asking "Hey, that song sounds really familiar, who was that?". Is there ANYBODY that doesn't have a crush on at least one of these girls? The only bad thing I have to say about the Spice Girls is that they seem to be a corporate product, oh well.
The Spice Girls were huge in the 90s. In all actuallity, I bet many who grew up in the 90s will look back and see them as icons of the period. They took a commercial pop sound and gave it an internationally recognised face.
As far as such a pop sound goes, they weren't so bad (though that's probably more down to clever producers rather than the Spice Girl individuals).
Regardless of what you think of them, they'll be remembered as icons of the 90s, along with the Macarena and fads such as Tazos (or Pogs) and Tamagotchis. Ha, the 90s - lest we forget.
