A QUARTER OF A CENTURY, PEOPLE.
Yikes.
It feels like only yesterday that Geri Halliwell, Mel B, Victoria Adams, Mel C and Emma Bunton burst into our lives and changed the course of pop forever.
And to think their record company wanted to release the duff album track Love Thing as their first single. Idiots.
Here’s the story (from A to Z) of what would become the most recognised song of all time (and that’s official).
Virgin
According to pop legend, the song was written in just 30 minutes
But it went through several mixes before the group and their record company were happy. Co-writer and producer Richard ‘Biff’ Stannard recalled to Pink News: “We wrote Wannabe quite quickly, but it took ages to get it to sound right. I remember waking up on the studio floor with this post-it from (co-writer) Matt saying, ‘Press play.’ We’d finally got it. So it was luck and hard work.”
