    Let's admit: their timing was terrible, they should've stick to their bubble gum party pop instead of going with heavy R&B influences (well, the space of R&B influenced girlgroups was well filled by Destiny's Child and TLC already). However, it showed that they can sound mature and give realistic romantic proposals, unlike the previous two albums.

    i feel it was a very good last try. its my favorite spice girls album and think it was seriuosly underated, Holloer and Get Down With Me are my two favorite dance songs, so infectious as well as fun. The four ballads on the album absolutely shine Let Love Lead The Way and Time Goes By definitely demonstrate their vocal power, i loved the tag team vocals in these songs.

    they did it again... stylish image, smooth sound, classic lyrics... far better than their solo projects (atleast only in my humble opinion :P)

    It's been almost five years since England's Spice Girls had people smiling or sneering. Their third album, Forever, will probably provoke a reaction somewhere in the middle -- with one exception, it's just OK.

    The set oozes with timely funk beats and the kind of well-crafted songs that No. 1 hits are made of.

    A frothy soufflé of an album, heavy on the groovy dance beats and go-girl goodwill, light on profundity.
