Which Spice are you?

Lut, Jen, Karen and I have decided to form a band in the style of the Spice Girls.

Everyone is free to join but you have to give yourself a "Spice" name.

Let me introduce myself............

[Killearn Kitties]

Can I be Tuneless Spice? I'm afraid I have only ever heard one Spice Girls song though. When are the rehersals?

[JenBKR]

[cyber-sibes]

I vaguely remember the Spice girls, not sure if I ever heard any of their music, though. Although Old Spice would probably be appropriate, I think maybe I'll keep a good thing going and be Cyber-Spice, if you let me join the band. I always wanted to be in an all-girl band!

[Dorothy39]

Okay, Bealtemania rocked my world~~~ but~~~ I never got hooked on Spicemania :D

Has any one chosen Hot Spice? and, Who is on Lead Guitar in this all "Girl Power Band? ;)

Aw, man.. Spice Girls were my FAVOURITE growing up. I collected stickers that came with candy, I had a Spice Girls piggy bank, all of their CDs, their movie, their concerts on tape, posters, and all of the Spice Girl's dolls.

My sister and my friends and I used to sing at the top of our lungs from her deck in my old town. Good times. :)

[IRescue452]

I've got tibs on Devilish Spice ;) :p ;)

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

[cyber-sibes]

Alright, you young things, here's the song lyrics. I'll bet if you heard the tune you would recognize it. It's been on the radio for years.

Neil Young Lyrics - HORSE WITH NO NAME Lyrics

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead

You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

After nine days I let the horse run free
'Cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
there was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love

You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

The missing words are ...la laaa laaa la la laaaa...la la la laaa laaa la la la laaa.
See? I can sing backup in the band!

[Dorothy39]

Brody' s Mum~~~~

What is Lead Guitar? :cool:

Think, George Harrison!!!! ;)

( Can a Beatles Fan be a Spice Chick?) ;)

Cyber_sibes~~~~ I can't get Neil Youngs song out of my mind!!! :eek:

[JenBKR]

Dorothy, I think you should be lead guitar! Rock on, girl!

[Dorothy39]

Hey, cool! Now they're playing Neil whats-his-face with A Horse With No Name (sorry, brain block :rolleyes: ) oh yeah, Neil Young!

WOW!!!

My husband is watching Speed Vision right now, "Back in the Day"~~~
On the bottom of the TV Screen, It said that today in History, That Neil Young's Horse With No Name was Released!!!! :D

You are a Spice Chick Now!!! No turning back!!!!!! :eek:

[cyber-sibes]

My husband is watching Speed Vision right now, "Back in the Day"~~~On the bottom of the TV Screen, It said that today in History, That Neil Young's Horse With No Name was Released!!!! :D
NO! :eek: GET OUT! Took a while to find the lyrics, wasn't sure if that was really the name of the tune or just a line from the chorus!

[Cataholic]

????? Never heard Neil Young sing "Horse with No Name" in my life. Does that mean I'm out?


Only out in left field.

Though, I cannot imagine how you couldn't EVER hear that song. What, are you 12? :D

[JenBKR]

She's never heard it sung by Neil Young.....I, on the other hand.....have never heard the song at all :o

Maybe I shouldn't admit that...

[Pawsitive Thinking]

Should our first single be "Horse with no name"?

aka "Song with no tune" once we've got hold of it!

Will be exercising my vocal chords with a bit of gentle "singing" at the football today..............

Keep up the practise girls - you are sounding fab!!

[joanofark]

Mwha, you girls are nuts!! lol

Just call me Blondie Spice!

I remember the spice girls. They were super popular when i was about 7, lol. :D

[pitc9]

I remember the spic girls. They were super popular when i was about 7, lol. :D

OUCH!!! :o :eek:
One more comment like that and you're OUT of the band!!

Oh I'm sorry, that was my alter ego B*tchy Spice. ;) :p

[cyber-sibes]

Should our first single be "Horse with no name"? aka "Song with no tune" once we've got hold of it!Good choice - the chorus only uses three notes! We could probably get that much right!

[Pawsitive Thinking]

I remember the spic girls. They were super popular when i was about 7, lol. :D

Sweetheart they were popular when my daughter was 7!!!

Welcome to the band - :D

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

I must be quite an oldie here, because "a horse with no name" used to be my favorite tune when it came out!! Maybe I should change my name to "Grandma Spice" :confused: :p

[Pawsitive Thinking]

[smokey the elder]

If you want a song with no tune, try "Life is a Rock!" by...I forget who. It came out in the early 70's.

Oh well....."Ring my BELLLEEEEEEELL, Ring my bell"!!

[jazzcat]

Ooh, can I join???

Since I just had a hysterectomy maybe I should be called Hormonal Spice. Will that work?

I do know Horse with no name and Smoke on the Water (although I was young when they were hits).

[AbbyMom]

Hey! Can I join? I have the original vinyls for both Smoke on the Water and A Horse with No Name (By America, not Neil Young)

I can't sing, but I can say

da da da .... da da dada ....da da da ....dada
Smooooooke on the waaaater

Just as good a Deep Purple! LOL!

Can I be space spice?

:D

[Killearn Kitties]

I believe I have uncovered a MAJOR internet controversy. ;)

When a number of people on this thread referred to Neil Young's Horse with No Name, I raced off to Google, to find out about it. I wondered whether Neil Young had had the hit in America while America had had the hit here, if you follow me. I found legions of websites discussing the question of why people think Neil Young wrote/recorded Horse with No Name, and of course other websites which believe that he did.

So, the question is, does anyone on PT have proof positive that NY recorded HWNN? Is anyone in possession of such a recording?

[JenBKR]

Welcome new Spicers!

I think Karen is going to lose her mind if we don't find the truth behind Neil Young and Horse with No Name. So, everyone, let's investigate!

[Pawsitive Thinking]

OMG!!!! Bet the Spice Girls never had this dilemma. Zig a Zigga or whatever it was...........

:eek: I always thought that it was Neil Young~~~!!

wow, I looked that up too, and read a small article about the controversy . Maybe, "America" was inspired by "Crosby, Sills, Nash and Young.

Here's the link I read, maybe you saw the same one.http://www.accessbackstage.com/america/song/song005.htm

[cyber-sibes]

Now I'm just gonna have to look into this too. I found all the lyrics I posted on a Neil Young website. Here: NEIL YOUNG LYRICS (http://www.lyricsdownload.com/neil-young-horse-with-no-name-lyrics.html) I don't have any of his albums, cause I was never a Neil Young "fan". I was around "back then" and it was Neil Young! They played it a gazillion times on the radio. OMG, who would have thought this little thread would uncover such a controversy! :eek:
*edit - I checked it out too, and both Neil Young & America recorded the song.

[JenBKR]

woohoo I think we have an answer! YAY!

[cyber-sibes]

Hmmm, maybe we could put some black-light decorations on those white dresses and just use black-lights! Very retro! Anybody got lava lamps we could put at the corners of the stage?

[JenBKR]

That's perfect! I bet we could find everything we need on ebay! I bet those lights and lamps will distract from our singing, and anything that distracts from our voices is a good thing! ;)

[carole]

I think i can be aptly named KIWI SPICE. :D

[Killearn Kitties]

Oh oh oh, I have a lava lamp! :D I'll dust it off and bring it along.
