Classic track.
******
The very definition of the 90s
******
Love this song! I miss the Spice Girls!
****
It does go without saying that this is making one heck of an entrance. I've grown to appreciate it over the years but they've had plenty more I prefer.<br><br>Something I do find interesting that is for all you hear about bubblegum pop being disposable, this remains one of the biggest hits of the 1990s, and one that doesn't seem to have lost much of the fanfare at all.

catchy song but bloody annoying.
*****
An iconic effort - loved it when I was younger, but it has more cheese factor as an adult. Still a jam but pales in comparison to many of their other ones.

I simply can't hate this song, it's way too catchy... however I do agree that it's not their best
*
trash, the typical 90s trash. a shame for the continent.
***
Put them on the scene, but I have to be in the mood to listen to this, otherwise it gets changed.
**
It's good for a laugh but hardly magical.<br><br>P = 92

Catchy and fun.
*
Always hated this and always will!
**
Catchy and irritating at the same time. It's starting to sound like a novelty track.
Last edited: 20/12/2011 08:04

better than average 90's pop
*
Dreadful!
***
Heaps of fun on an occasional listen but too silly for hearing too much.
***
A bit irritating but still okay.
**
Although I shouldn't take this song too seriously, I just can't help myself. That chorus is annoying and polarising as heck, not to mention the lyrics are insanely cheesy in many places. While this is pretty bad, I've definitely heard worse and I guess the nostalgia is the only saving grace of this song.

Great. Very catchy pop song.

So cheesy, but so good. Absolute classic pop song that is a must on everyone's guilty pleasure playlist.
******
Cheesy.<br>Classic.<br>Iconic.
**
Will get a 1 if I hear it again.
******
THE song of the 90's!!!
******
How can you NOT love this?

I don't mind it, but it feels like something that would annoyingly be played on loop at many teenage birthday parties, especially during the song's time of release.
*****
It was a huge #1 and that can't be denied. But I never was swept up in the excitement of this. It's kind of catchy but that's about it.<br>EDIT: Upgrade. Transcending well across the decades. 4.5*

Fun and cheesy but heard it way too many times. Motiv8's Remix on the other hand... Euro-dance heaven!!!

Hate this with a burning passion. It's the go-to song for annoying middle aged women who can't let go of their youth.
******
Friendship really is magic
****
Guilty pleasure!

Goede pop en debuut plaat van een nieuwe Britse meidengroep.
