The Spice Girls are the best group of all time. It's 20 years since the most colourful, fun and electrifying group stormed onto the music scene and stole all our hearts. We all remember our first time hearing Sporty, Posh, Baby, Ginger and Scary blasting through our radios or seeing the Wannabe video on TV- those red carpet stairs! Here are just some of the reasons why the Spice Girls are the greatest group of all time:

'Cause going to a Catholic school meant you couldn't have Spice Girls merchandise on you cause it was considered 'too risqué'. The beginning of all our rebellious streaks - our, at least, mine.
Mel B's ballsy hairstyles
'Cause what other group could you sing any of their songs on a night out and random strangers can join in: "All the colours of the word, Spice Up Your Life" or "If you wanna be my lover you gotta get with my friend...". SING IT WITH ME!
