Really really really wanna zig-a-zig ah.

Really really really wanna know what zig a zig ah means.

25 years ago, really?!
I still think that 100 years ago was the victorian 1890's, I am 2 monarchs out of date!

I thought they said it meant 'anything you wanted it to mean' ... I.e it's just made up to fit the song

Oh, I loved the Spice Girls. I really, really wanted their first album but was too embarrassed at the age of 24 to buy it from HMV so I ordered it from Britannia Grin

That's cos their audience were kids.

Stop being silly. 1996 is a mere ten years ago.

MilkTwoSugarsThanks · 22/03/2021 00:44

It isn't 25 years old, don't be silly.

I was in my early 20s when it came out.

That was last week.

No - it was. Really. It WAS!!!

Whatsnewpussyhat · 22/03/2021 02:04

Yep. Now I feel old.

I remember them launching channel 5 too.
5 whole channels of tv to watch.
Back in the day when tv would end at midnight....

Girl power. A group managed by a man.

Were it not for the pandemic, mourning would be more appropriate. Led to the utter bilge called Bewitched, Atomic Kitten and Westlife. Which I struggle even to call music.
