Dear Poptastic Readers,
Yesterday was very special day in the world of pop music, as it’s been 25 years since the Spice Girls released their debut single “Wannabe” in the UK! And today, they have released a special digital single of "Wannabe25." Details below.
Of course, for their loyal fanbase across the globe this anniversary has a huge cause for celebration – especially in these Covid times. It’s already been two years since Geri Horner, Emma Bunton, Melanie C and Mel B completed their sell-out Spiceworld 2019 stadium tour – which cemented their incredible legacy as pop music legends. The girls recently joined forces with their former bandmate Victoria Beckham to promote her new Pride t-shirt, raising money to combat LGBTQ+ youth homelessness in the UK.
To celebrate the single’s 25th anniversary, the Spice Girls are issuing a new picture disc vinyl and cassette of “Wannabe” on August 27th. “Wannabe25” includes the original demo and a previously unreleased track “Feed Your Love” (which was originally previewed by writer/producer Biff Standard on Instagram back in 2016 for the 20th anniversary of “Wannabe”).
It’s quite significant that the girls have agreed to put out an unreleased track for this occasion, since they have notably decided not to do this throughout their career (fans are still longing for “W.O.M.A.N” to be released after being performed on the 1999 Christmas in Spiceworld Tour). Although we have a while longer to wait for the “Wannabe25” vinyl/cassette (which was delayed due to unprecedented demand), the single has been released to all digital platforms today! Listen here ...
Melanie C recently teased that there are more exciting things to come from the Spice Girls this year, as they go on to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their debut album Spice in November. We’re excited to find out what else they have up their sleeves. Fingers crossed, when live music is back in full force, we can expect to see the girls back on stage together again… who knows, perhaps even Victoria too?!?
Enjoy the 25th anniversary celebrations – be sure to stream/download “Wannabe25” from today and pre-order the vinyl/cassette from the official Spice Girls store!
Cheers then,
—Normski
