<1. 歌手 & 背景介绍> Spice Girls 　　 所属公司：EMI百代唱片 　　 成立时间： 1993年 解散时间：2000年 　　 组合介绍：Spice Girls 是唯一一支没有受到独立 pop-rock 影响的英国90年代中期乐队。相反，这支全部由女生组成的五人组合却继承了由英国90年代早期最流行的乐队 Take That 带来的dance-pop 的表演风格。The Spice Girls 使用 dance-pop 作为她们的音乐基础，但同时又注入了强烈的女性独立风格，几乎可以与 Madonna 相当。使她们成为跨世代成功的乐队的原因主要是她们的靓女形象和劲舞风格赢得了年轻一代的歌迷；而同时，她们多彩性感的人格和幽默感又使老一代的乐迷很喜欢。在1997年全力打入北美前，她们在1996年中在整个欧洲都独占排行榜榜首位置。
