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.

Spice Girls
You know I dont wanna know, dont wanna know about that love thing,
Give me what Im needing, you know what Im dreaming of,
Dont wanna know about love thing
Been broken hearted before, but thats the last time it happens to me,
I keep on giving still youre asking for more,
Too much emotion baby, why cant you see,
Im not afraid of your love (Im not afraid of your love)
Why cant you see Ive had my share of that
Youre what I want boy,
You know you got boy,
You gotta want me,
Its just what I need,
Im not that easy as a matter of fact,
Theres no room for lovin stop that push and shovin yeah,
Dont wanna know about that love thing,
Give me what Im needing you know what Im dreaming of,
Dont wanna know about that love thing, (here we go, here we go)
Now dont go wasting my time,
Youre not the only thing Ive got on my mind,
My friends are with me when you aint been around,
Your precious words and promises aint bringin me down,
Ive got some living to do, dont assume Im gonna be with you,
You gotta want boy,
You know you got boy,
You gotta want me,
Its just what I need,
Im not that easy as a matter of fact,
Theres no room for lovin stop that push and shovin yeah,
Give me what Im needing, you know what Im dreaming of,
Dont wanna know about that love thing,
Stop pushing,
Youre rushing,
Youre losing my lovin,
I hope it,
I see it,
Just play it,
You feel it,
Gotta be bold, bold and oh so strong,
Get with this and you got it goin on,
On and on with the girls named spice.
You wanna get with us then youd better think twice,
God help the mister, yeah God help the mister,
That comes between me and my sisters,
Im not afraid of your love,
Im not afraid of your love,
Why cant you see Ive had my share of that,
Youre what I want boy,
You know you got boy,
You gotta want me,
Its just what I need,
Im not that easy as a matter of fact,
Theres no room for lovin stop that push and shovin yeah,
Dont wanna know about that love thing,
Give me what Im needing you know what Im dreaming of,
Dont wanna know about that love thing,
(repeat chorus and fade)
