Seriously, BB should just give it a rest...they were good back then but I don't see them making a successful comeback.

Well, the thing is that the Spice Girls didn't do proper promotion at all during Forever (third album) era. And they hid from the media a week or two after the release of that album. As a SG fan, I was really embarrassed back in 2000. I believe lots of us couldn't believe what they did to us and many fans tended to ignore that era.

The thing is... I'm kinda glad that Geri left in the first place. If she didn't leave and they kept on releasing albums, they would end up as a fading star and nobody really cared about them. This is what BB look like today. Of course they are more artistic right now and I believe they are making better music. But as a fan dun you feel bad that they're not popular anymore?

And look at today's SG. Although they are just doing a reunion and then goodbye forever, at least they make a really big impact on their return. (well except the cds... again they do NOTHING at all... Not promoting their greatest hits and the comeback single.. they are focusing too much on their upcoming tour).

I just dunno.. BB and SG were considered as rivals back in their golden era. It's quite weird to see what they're at right now. SG messed up their early career with Geri's departure and a bad third album. BB sorta stayed together for at least 4 successful albums but eventually fading into background...
