Spice Girls - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (3517 words)
The Spiceworld Tour kicked off in Dublin, Ireland on February 24, 1998 before moving onto mainland Europe and then returning to Britain for 14 gigs at Wembly Arena and Birmingham’s NEC Arena.
The video for the single was made before Geri's departure and features the girls in animated form – a decision made because there was no time to produce a video due to the heavy world tour schedule.
Spiceworld: The Movie broke the record for the highest ever weekend debut for Super Bowl Weekend (January 25, 1998) in the US, with box office sales of $10,527,222.
Spice Up Your Life - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (644 words)
Like much of their second album, Spiceworld, it had its premier during the group's first concert in Istanbul, Turkey.
Hence, the song was seldom played on U.S. radio (peaking at a very low number seventy-two on the Hot 100 Airplay), resulting in it stalling at a lowly number eighteen on the Billboard Hot 100.
"Life" also helped the Spiceworld LP debut on the Billboard 200 albums chart at number eight (it would eventually climb to a peak of number three after the release of the group's first film, Spiceworld: the Movie).
