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.

Whoo
She used to be a chancer, sparkle in the rain
Told me she needed a friend
If shes going crazy, babys on the way
Seems like the day never ends
Everybody needs some affection (ah ah ah)
Never shines (never shines) gotta try (gotta try)
Wherever youre going
Chorus
Never giv up on the good times, gotta believe in the love you find
(never give it up no, never give it up no oh oh)
Never give up on the good times, living it up is a state of mind
(never give it up no, never give it up oh oh)
Bossanova baby, heart is never soul
Shouting but hes never heard
Eyes all wide and open, streets are paved with gold
Someone come back on their world
Everybody needs some affection (ah ah ah)
Never shines (never shines) gotta try (gotta try)
Wherever youre going
Chorus
Down and dirty city, feeling outta place
Maybe youre ran outta time
Treats her like a lady, smile upon her face
Make up the last of the lines
Everybody needs some affection (ah ah ah)
Never shines (never shines) gotta try (gotta try)
Wherever youre going
Chorus
Never give up on the good times, gotta believe in the the love you find
(never give it uuuuuppp)
Never give up on the good times, living it up is a state of mind
(believe in the love that you find)
Hey now look arround, pick yourself up off the ground
I said hey now look around, pick yourself up off the ground (x3)
I said (never give up) hey now look arround,
Pick yourself up off the ground
I said hey now look around, pick yourself up off the ground
I said (never give up) hey now look around,
Pick yourself up off the ground
I said hey now look around, pick yourselft up off the ground
I said (never give up) hey now look around,
Pick yourself up off the ground
I said never give up (x3)
Never give up on the good times, gotta believe in the the love you find
(never give it up, never give it up no oh oh)
Never give up on the good times, living it up is a state of mind
(never give it up, never give it up no oh oh)
Never give up on the good times, gotta believe in the the love you find
(never give it uuuuuppp)
Never give up on the good times, living it up is a state of mind
Never give up on the good times, gotta believe in the the love you find
(never give it up, never give it up no oh oh)
Never give up on the good times, living it up is a state of mind
(never give it up, never give it up no oh oh)
