I like "Headlines".

It's a bit different, it's a bit unusual, but I do like the new Spice Girls song Headlines. I was initially disappointed that the former Fan Network hadn't managed to get a copy of the song and put it on the internet - well, they actually did. I gave my former colleagues too little credit. I have just listened to a low quality version on Youtube, and I do definitely like the song.

Don't get me wrong - lyrically, it's a little bit weak. But it's got a nice feel to it - sort of a cross between the Spice Girls of old, and "Let Love Lead The Way" (the only good song ever produced by Darkchild).

I just wrote "Who produced Headlines anyway?", then it occurred to me to go onto Wikipedia to look it up. And guess what? Richard Stannard and Matt Rowe produced it! For those who don't know, that duo produced most of the Girls' hits. Thank god the Spiceys have seen the light and hired Stannard and Rowe once again. And this explains the slight R&B feel, as Matt Rowe did a lot of R&B tracks.

In the first iteration of this post, I criticised Rodney Jerkins and co for ruining the Spice Girls' third album. But I deleted all that part of the post, as I don't think it's fair to have a go at someone whose career and possibly LIFE has been completely ruined by the events in question.
