following on from several mentions in the best solo spice songs thread, Let Your Head Go is now considered a critically acclaimed banger and a minor pop classic. and despite her efforts for it to be the serious single, This Groove is also high camp, and has quite a fabulous chorus.
I watched for the videos for both videos and think it's quite interesting to see the effort that went into some kind of character for her as a popstar. this vampy, high glam woman who was embracing being sexy while being also kind of in on the joke.
and it's such a strange twist of fate that despite going top 3, the single ultimately ended her career and/or made her want to leave music behind completely.
does anyone know which song went higher on UK radio? and what do you think of this aa-side now?
I can easily see somebody like SG Lewis or Fred again.. producing Let Your Head Go for a current popstar/dance vocalist, and it would pop off. the hooks are so
would she have done better as a 00s dance vocalist, rather than leaning into "urban" sounds? was her career cut short or it was end inevitable? paging all spice correspondents. but don't be a hater @Pipo.
