Call me naive, but I always thought the lyric 'got to get with my friends' meant 'got to get on with my friends' rather than 'got to have sex with all my friends'. I think you're being a bit over the top in your analysis of the lyrics. Agree with your points about inappropriate songs aimed at young children though. Spice girls were tame compared to modern artists like ariana grande. When they know their fan base is mostly very young kids they should tone it right down in my opinion. Ditch the f-words etc.

There were major differences between the Spice Girls and Avril Lavigne, which was the way they were marketed. The Spice Girls were marketed to young girls whilst Avril was more or less just some generic 2000s american pop punk act. Which is clear by the fact she didn't have any barbie dolls or branded hair dryers. Another difference was that Avril writes her songs, and she wasn't chosen by some panel of managers. "Things I'll never say" (the example you used) was co-written by Avril herself and Lauren Christy, a woman(who helped her write her other hits on the album). I'm just mentioning as you said at 3:35 that this was "all planned by the songwriters", yes she was underaged in the US at the time, but she co-wrote most of her songs especially in this period of her career and there's still the possibility she wrote those lines herself.

As I said, he should stick to the Oasis-nerd content - because he clearly knows less than nothing about either of the artists he mentioned. As for Avril, yes, she did write the lyrics for “Things I’ll Never Say.” In fact, one of the things the industry reps *didn’t* want her to do was participate in the writing of her material, which she was intent on doing. So much for merely being the face of big-bad-social-engineering record executives. 🤷🏻 As for the Spice Girls, he seems to have the notion that some cabal at Virgin Records plucked out five women and used them for their diabolical goal of selling sex to kids. Of course, none of that is true. Chris Herbert’s idea was to create a band that appealed to guys - unlike Boy Bands that only appealed to teenage girls. Of course, the girls also left Herbert high and dry after the recording of ‘Wannabe’ and ‘2 Become 1’ - again, so much for simply being the pretty faces meant to sell a “sinister” agenda. 🤣 And the lyrics of the song came from the girls, involving inside jokes and phrases they came up with themselves. Even when he goes on about the Spice Girls being dressed up like kids whilst showing the ‘Wannabe’ video - all wrong. They were wearing their own (rather cheap) clothes in that video shoot, that they chose. At the end of the day, people only know what they know, and unfortunately are given to positing absurdist conspiracy theories to fill in the gaps in their knowledge. Even the Peter O’Toole clip, where he’s comically reading the lyrics of ‘Wannabe’ which is used to show how “sinister” the lyrics are - has he ever watched the Peter Sellers version of ‘A Hard Day’s Night’, where Peter does the same thing, with similarly (especially for that time) cheeky and salacious lyrics? I suppose the Beatles were “sinister” as well. We all get it, the popularity of the Spice Girls coincided with the decline of Britpop - and *that* is what really motivates the animus here.

Lisa/Janey did it in the Simpsons "cut her big fat as... ...k me no more questions", and South Park did too with Wendy's Audition. Obvs selling sex to kids is absolutely wrong, and the taboo nature of the songs only made Spice Girls have greater appeal. Pretty hilarious to see 'Girl Power' being promoted with ladette culture.

Oasis were definitely better influences and they had reason for their behaviour as they didn’t have the best upbringings and wrote about that which (like D’You Know What I Mean) were wrote to relate to/help others in the same situations but the Spice Girls songs were full with sex and, as I’m always tell my friends at school, I want to be one of the rock bands who bring rock ‘n’ roll back to the charts which is why I spend so much of my time perfecting little parts of songs that I’ve wrote for my band, so we can get rock back in the charts and back on the radios (also, the reason I’m so confident that my band will succeed is because I often write songs like James has mentioned Noel doing, writing non-sensical lyrics to fill space and then later changing them to make sense so, thank you James)!

They were dancing in their bedrooms singing along completely unaware of any innuendos! By the time anyone can understand the lyrics you are most likely grown up by then. It’s a bit like adult jokes hidden in kids films, it’s to entertain the adults as kids are too young to understand!
As a young girl myself many moons ago let me be clear: we DID analyze and write down the words to songs. We may not have understood all the words and meanings but we knew them.

I think that Limps & others from that scene are out of the pocket here - they were certainly not promoted as music for underaged part of society. At the very least because their every release came with that “Parental Advisory” sticker on the artwork. Did they attracted younger audience? - sure, they did, myself included, while I was 13 at the time of “Chocolate Starfish & Hot Dog” Limp Bizkit’s LP was released. And younger dudes reacted mostly to the heavy guitars and never-before-heard level of production rather than lyrics, as per my reminiscences - banger riffs, chorus melody lines, etc. But even with this in mind, it was by most parts music for elder audience - 17-30yrs or somewhere close. btw last year I was revisiting this particular LP just because of my memories of it that mostly were associated with tons of fun, but to my surprise, it was a solid musical experience often accompanied with thoughtful lyrics - with exceptions in form of a couple of tracks - one that you brought up, containing the line “I wanna fuck you like an animal” named Hot Dog (which is not about fucking an animal of course lol), and the second one maybe being Rollin’ yet not ‘cause of its offensiveness but ‘cause it’s just a head-banger-heavy-riff type of song with no particular message in it. But yo, it’s 2 songs out of 15, where other 13 are definitely not something to be ashamed of for the guys while looking back at their musical output. I can say that I am able to appreciate their lyrical content more now, listening to it with consciousness, than I was back then - i mean, it’s heavy - often comes from a darker place of human mentality (I assume mostly fairly reflecting on the ongoing reality from subjective perspective) - just like the music itself, but it’s not empty by any means. And remember - “Parental Advisory” was everywhere, not to mention the fact of absence of any kind of children-targeted pieces of commercial merch - no dolls, not even skateboards or special series Marten’s shoes, etc.

@@kowloonbroadcast I wasn't on about the song Hot Dog, I was more referring to Blink 182 who had a song on one of their albums [a 'bonus' track I think] called I Wanna Fuck A Dog Up The Ass. Something like that. I'm not sure totally what your point is, because for a start, it wasn't just 2 songs with swearing in on that Limp Bizkit album. The whole album and indeed many of their songs full stop are full of expletives. Kids bought their albums regardless of the Parental Advisory thing on the front. Who exactly in record stores back then was bothered?? Maybe they should have been and stricter measures applied to younger people buying these albums, but kids grow up fast, sometimes too fast for their own good and curiosity and the need to look good overrides anything else, let's be honest. I enjoyed some of that music myself back then, but I wasn't a child by that stage, I was a late teen. If anything, the people behind The Spice Girls were the sinister ones. They were mere money making puppets for the top record producers, etc. I wouldn't say Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst ever wrote anything special lyrically, although I did love their song Take A Look Around for example, and sang along wholeheartedly many a time. But he must surely have known who was going to buy his music, and knew many wouldn't really be old enough to digest his often overtly sexual, misogynistic and homophobic lyrics. Or maybe he didn't realise that. He wasn't the sharpest tool in the box let's be honest. To summarise, you have a collection of songs with more than a hint of misogyny and homophobia [even the title Chocolate Starfish .... was a reference to it!] Vs The Spice Girls with a few songs about sex, but actually done in a much more subtle way to the likes of Limp Bizkit and Blink 182. I would say the latter were worse influences on society in general.

However that wasn't the only fkn topic they sang about in the blues, modern songwriters seem to think all people do is snort coke, take e and shag all day and its everywhere to the point where its just normal, so that when literally anyone sings about anything else, its not as popular. This modern obsession with over sexualised lyric and iconography is to put it blunty to appeal not only to the lowest common denominator...thick brainlets but to sell products...simple.

I already had hated this song . But you made my heart grow just to make room for this newly contained vitriol . As a grassroots musician/songwriter I couldn't agree more about corporate music industry and it's influence. One of the major problems modern music esp pop(not all pop) is the over formulaic, over produced the industry has taken. Music or better the selling and marketing of music has always been about money and that's not bad. The key difference here is now it seems is became their main driving focus all about profit any concern they had for quirky who would never sell big buy would loyally or great songwriters who is never gonna be the effusive charmer i.e Tom Waits, another example is a great songwriter who doesn't have much of a range and a tendency to miss pitches someone like Dylan or Cohen . These and their very rare I'll could never cut a major label esp when you consider the politics of Dylan you may could put N. Young here. They found thier formula, it's proven itself over time and repeatedly return profit which in capitalism is the purpose. It works so well that there's no reason to change unless a revolution occurs. A lot of reasons could be get power by the corporate masters. Producers is a bit of the problem (not all by no means)most if not the vast vast majority used to care about what they help craft even if it was crap they did what they could to enhance it , but not thier content lyes like a cheap hooker after a pop of H , cash not craft is thier fuel. There's still hope as long as Rick Rubin is still us. Sorry for the he length but one other gripe songwriting. This is not particular to one era or another the target audiences for most major label are young, and female and that's who thier songwriters target the who can make mommy and daddy spends loads of money on ephemeral merch bullshit and repeat event attendees. So you get a assembly line process to songwriting most not sounding much diff with drab , vapid lyrics or lyrics meant to shock. Rock has become fangless in the most turbulent rock has nothing to say , which is damn ironic since it's stated mission was challenge authority and shock the status quo. These are just a few problems. We've exchanged eccentricity for conformity , authenticity for famehungered, and art for spectacle.

Liam uses very accomplished pop songwriters these days. Noel hired and fired musicians at will, both have bands they assembled together. Spice Girls are obviously not technically the best singers, but the same could be said about so many bands and singers. Sometimes they’re personalities are what connect with an audience. It’s easy to be concerned about lyrical subject matter as you get older but I grew up listening to Eminem and other music that probably wouldn’t even get released now. Pretty sure I was listening to Oasis at a young age at the same time as my sisters listened to the Spice Girls, I think any more adult themes went over our heads just as they did with things like the Simpsons or films. The beauty of music is anyone can draw their own conclusions from the lyrics, just as you do. You can interpret them as positively or negatively as you like. You’ve said you overlook parts of Oasis lyrics you don’t like. Unless you want to believe everything is an elaborate coverup, history has told us that the lyrics were generally acceptable for radio and wider audiences and certainly no worse than anything before or since. Lots of songs have double entendres and more adult themes behind simpler metaphors. If you’re an adult, it’s much easier to write genuine lyrics about your own experiences rather than trying to just write filler for your “target audience”. I’d actually suggest learning some of the Spice Girls songs on guitar - there’s some clever songwriting and great melodies and chord structures. And Wannabe (as much as I never want to hear it again) is pretty unconventional for a pop song I think convincing yourself lyrics like these are a serious problem is only going to lead to going a bit mental and paranoid.

I think the problem with pop music is the people taking the lyrics serious which a lot of people do. I thought they were funny at first until I started to realise how serious the lyrics can be and how some people were taking them very serious. I never took Eminem that serious, liked him till I got sick of him. Probably part due to him being over popularised even when his music continued to get worse over the years in a creative sense. Some people take sexualised and violent music and movies very seriously and that's a serious concern for their mental state of well being.

I don‘t remember anyone suggesting the Spice Girls or Oasis were bad influences (except for the usual fuckwits in the Murdoch press), the main culprits for „corrupting the youth“ at that time were rave culture, New Age travellers, and then later on various gangsta rap acts and Marilyn Manson. I’m not really convinced about the innuendo in the „Wannabe“ lyrics, because the Daily Mirror is not the most reliable source, to put it mildly - they were looking for sensationalist sex scandals on a daily basis. And to be honest, even if the lyrics had sexual innuendo in them, they were pretty mild to some of the pop stuff released in the 1960s/1970s. I think the really sinister stuff regarding the Spice Girls were the things happening behind the scenes. I saw an interview with Mel C recently, and it was quite shocking what they had to go through to fulfil the image their management wanted.

I'm not really convinced by this. I was one of the biggest Spice Girls fans in my school when I was about 8, but I can't say they influenced how I presented my sexuality at all. As soon as I hit puberty I started to feel and dress more masculine, so I wasn't about to start dressing like my former idols. I think sexuality in music can influence how young people present themselves, but the image being presented has to somewhat be in line with their actual nascent feelings. I bet loads of young men were influenced by Liam Gallagher's sexuality and masculinity and wanted to be like him, but not if they were more shy and sensitive by nature. They would pick another role model. And kids under 12 or so either don't even notice sexual references or only in a 'hee hee, they said [x]' way. The danger is if an adult with bad intentions uses material to target and groom.

Comparing it with Oasis is a huge false equivalence though, IMO and I certainly wouldn’t describe Britpop as “wholesome”, even in relative terms. That said, I always found that era and it’s faux 60s nostalgia trappings bit naff tbh and when it came to 90s alternative music, I much preferred what the American bands of the time were doing, but that’s just me.

While I appreciate your thoughts on the subject matter, using Avril Lavigne as your manufactured pop artist example was a bad example. You could have easily used a group like the Backstreet Boys who were manufactured and who did none of their own writing in the early days. And if you want to go there with inappropriate songs / lyrics - targeted to young pop audiences…that’s been going on since forever - I can go back to the 60’s and find dozens of lyrics by John/Paul that were filled with double entendres. There are other non-US based manufactured groups like Five, One Direction, Girls Aloud, Take That…look through their songs and you can find a long list of inappropriate lyrics. It just feels like this is a bit on the sexist side. NSYNC, BSB, a ton of other boy bands also had “Barbie” like dolls that were made in their likeness and played with by little girls and boys all over the world.

id say Madonna is in a league of her own, she is not manufactured or has anyone pulling the strings. Her sexual lyrics are written by her & she is not strategically targeting young girls. In 1985, the late, great Whitney said that " Madonna's songs are sexual, im a Christian & i hope to be around longer than her". Bearing in my her first song was about an adulterous affair and well, we all know the rest. It cant be said Madonna is victimising herself, she owns it lol!! Madonna is in charge of herself & i think these young girls getting famous but not there in talent or merit. ie Spice Girls. Nowadays, its just vulgar, imho. There's talent out there of course, but im super stuck in the 80s, so....lol!

Yet once the spice girls came out who was their target demographic and then other artists like Allanis Morissette in my time got away with throwing in swear words and sexual inuendo into their music all of which mainstream radio and public places played continuesly for everyone to hear. The world has only gotten worse with songs like WAP demonstrating female entitlement.

Okay guys... listen, I'll admit... as a 10 year old, I was heavily influenced by all pop music at the time of 1996... Oasis were my favourite.. I thank my older brother for that. What's the story literally developed me as a young boy. But.... and here's a big but....I also liked the spice girls. I was very impressionable and quite easily swayed by the huge influence the spice girls had on everyone it seemed. I was ten. Remember that. But I also liked pop songs. I still do. I appreciate all music as long as it makes me feel good. As a young boy I did like the pop tunes by the spice girls as they were quite catchy and fun. But also their songs were being pumped out by the radio constantly! How could I avoid them? And this was way before downloads or ipods. THE RADIO WAS OUR GOD BACK THEN. James I am shocked by the lyrics ... quite frankly I was under the impression that it was all just fun and girl power or whatever. I can only imagine what these songs did to the young girls at the time. My peers. Alot of my girl peers were heavily sexualised. Way more than us boys. Alot turned lesbian too a few years later.. I guess the girl power psychology really got to their minds. We see now this feminist movement taking over. Makes me wonder if the spice girls were just put their to influence the future minds of little girls... sickening to imagine. But I believe music has been a weapon. A psychological weapon to shape the minds of the public. Towards a set agenda laid out by the elites. Music is so powerful. It's hypnosis. Religion uses it too. I was raised mormon and the hymns were quite breath taking that I believe actually grew my faith. Thankfully I'm no longer in that cult. And I can see music for what it is. The beatles were used to bring in the sex and drugs. Quite a shame really. Check out the beatles conspiracy. Apparently lots of session musicians have come forward over the years saying they recorded the beatles.... and even wrote their songs. THE BEATLES WERE MANUFACTURED FRAUDS ....GUTTED

I never liked the Spice Girls and I’ve never bought the argument they were significant or empowering in any way, they were just awful manufactured pop music . I was a teenager then and in that pre internet era the music industry and television had more power and had way more influence over what we could listen to. For me the Spice Girls ushered in that dark post Britpop era when chart music was all about boy bands and tv talent shows. It was only really in the early 2000s that bands like The Strokes, The White Stripes and a bit later The Killers were acknowledged by mainstream media and became popular and you could hear decent music on the radio or on tv. Now of course we can listen to what we want but back then it was a different era.

It is your opinion as an Oasis fan and I respect it but you can't justify your opinion on how they had their issues as kids because you don't know the stories behind every Spice Girl, especially Geri and Mel B, who have been open about their struggles while growing up. Wannabe and 2 become 1 were written before becoming famous and knowing which their audience would be. On the other hand, I was 9 years old when they and Oasis came out and I have to say that a few of my friends became Spice Girls fans while a lot of them were Oasis fans - so the target audience is quite arguable. Either way, they were subtle to raise those topics (sex / safe sex) so most of us fans only learnt what they were referring to when we were older, plus I don't think talking about safe sex to young people is a problem but the opposite - I think it was and still is much needed, so IMO kudos to them for doing that. Also, you have to bear in mind that they were only 20 when they wrote those lyrics so you can't put the pressure on them to be good role models. I am sure some of them may regret some things they did or say now that they are older - who of us doesn't regret things we did in our 20s?! However, overall I thing they were excellent role models while being so young. A proof of that is the reunion tour tehy did in 2019 (13 sold out stadium shows) where they said that they realized how much they influenced young people (especially young girls and LGBTIQ+ community who are adults now) and encouraged them to be who they were, true to themselves - myself and I think A LOT of those 700,000 people agree on that. Sex was the minority of what they wrote about, they also wrote and talked about true friendship, supporting other women, being strong and positive, amongst others.
