The Spice Girls - Wannabe This is just deliberate trolling isn’t it? What could be less rock ‘n’ roll than this particular track? Well, I’m glad you asked. My definition of “rock” is less about guitars and drums and shouty vocals and more about absolute commitment to the thing that you are doing. Beyond being cool or knowing or above it all. Being present, in your body, in the moment, in the thick of it. And The Spice Girls are committed to this song. From the vocals to the dancing. They are committed to being the most Spiciest Girls that they can be. So, yes. This rocks. Bite me.
There is a line in "Get Low" that I persist in hearing as "till the sweat runs down my balls". That's how I've heard it for years and then recently I checked on the internet and in fact it's not the line - it's something slightly less lowly. Still, I persist, and indeed insist, on hearing it as "till the sweat runs down my balls". Because it could easily be the line - and it should be the line.

That's certainly what I have heard for the last 20 years.
