In March 1994, advertisements were placed in The Stage newspaper asking: "R U 18-23 with the ability to sing/dance? R U streetwise, ambitious, outgoing and determined?" Hundreds of girls responded to the ads. The applicants were whittled down to a final five which consisted of Melanie C, Geri Halliwell, Melanie Brown, Victoria Adams and Michelle Stephenson, who combined to form an all female group called "Touch." In June, during the group's earliest recording session, Michelle Stephenson was forced to leave due to commitment issues. She was replaced by Abigail Kis and then by Emma Bunton after Bunton's singing tutor had recommended her to the other girls. From this point up to March 1995 the girls lived together in a small house in Maidenhead where they worked on demos and practiced dance routines. After a successful showcase performance for music critics and producers in October, the group decided to fire their original management, who they cited as controlling and too domineering.

It’s Only Rock N Roll Lyrics
Spice Girls
Yes...
Well if I could stick my pen in my heart
I would spill it all over the stage
Would it satisfy, would it slide on by
Would you think the boy is strange?
Aint he strange?
If I could win ya, if I could sing ya
A love song so divine
Would it be enough for your cheating heart
If I broke down and cried?
If I cried?
(spice girls...)
I said I know its only rock and roll, but I like it
I said I know its only rock and roll,
But I like it, I like it, yes I do
Oh well I like it
I like it
Said I like it
I like it
But you know I like it
Cant you see
This this old boy has been lonely
If I could stick a knife in my heart
Suicide right on the stage
Would it be enough for your teenage lust
Would it help to ease the pain?
Ease your brain?
If I could dig down deep in my heart
Well the feelings would flood on the page
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya,
Would you think the boys insane?
Hes insane
I said I know its only rock and roll, but I like it
I said I know its only rock and roll,
But I like it
I know its only rock and roll, but I like it
Baby I like it
I said I know its only rock and roll,
But I like it, like it, yes I do
I like it
I like it, yeah thats right
I like it (its only rock n roll)
Cant you see
This this old boy has been lonely
Do you think that your the only girl around
I guess you think that your the only girl in town
I said I know its only rock and roll, but I like it
I said I know its only rock and roll,
But I like it, I like it, yes I do
But I like it,
I like it
I like it, like it, and thats a fact
We like it, we like it
