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.

Tonight's The Night Lyrics
Spice Girls
(with rod stuart from "an audience with rod stewart")
Stay away from my window
Stay away from my back door too
Disconnect the telephone line
Relax baby and draw that blind
Kick off your shoes and sit right down
Loosen off that pretty french gown
Let me pour you a good long drink
Ooh baby don't you hesitate, ah
Tonight's the night
It's gonna be alright
Cause i love you girl/boy
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now, nobody
Come on angel my heart's on fire
Don't deny your man's desire
You'd be a fool to stop this tide
Spread your wings
And let me come inside, cause
Tonight's the night
It's gonna be alright
Cause i love you girl/boy
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now, nobody, nobody
Don't say a word my virgin child
Just let your inhibitions run wild
The secret is about to unfold
Upstairs before the night's too old, yeah
Tonight's the night
It's gonna be alright (it's gonna be alright)
Cause i love you girl/boy
Ain't nobody gonna stop us now
Nobody, nobody rod, nobody
