Comments

For their third album the Spice Girls seem to have changed their style radically, from pop to some sort of minimalist R&B. The songs tend to be characterised as heavy beats with 3 part harmonies under a solo, which makes them blur together and end up unmemorable. In fact, "Get Down with Me" and "Wasting my Time" have virtually identical beats creating an illusion that there's just been a pause in the song.

There's the occasional gem, but altogether too little variation in sound. Certainly none of the extremes of the first two albums.
