Istanbul? Okay, why not put on one of your first concerts there. The show is composed of the same Spice Girls songs we hear all the time, augmented by the group's undeniable humor, freshness, costumes, and choreography. There's also a spirited interview, lots of attitude, and such. A winner for fans.

This is a video for all Spice fans to cherish. Their first concert ever & the only one available on video with Geri! Although alot of songs have been edited out, this video is still very amazing. First is a 30 minute interview with each of the girls & they explain about their lives up until that point & just everything you could ever want to know. Geri's so funny! Then follow the girls behind the scenes as they arrive at the venue & prepare for their first ever concert. They're all nervous & we get to watch them as they go up on stage. Once the show begins, you wouldn't ever have known that this was their first concert. They perform so good together & their chemistry together on stage is fabulous. From "If U Can't Dance" to "Wannabe", there is nonstop dancing, great costumes, & just alot of fun!

To begin with, these five girls are out of this world wonderful! Its my opinion that they are incredible! (This is of coarse when Ginger was still there.) These five girls are a breath of fresh air in the music industry! I cant count the times I have watched Live In Istanbul, and love it more each time! I love music. I love concerts. I love music videos. I have been a BIG fan of Fleetwood Mac for 25 years, and they are good together. These five girls, the Spice Girls are better than good together! These five girls are meant to be together! They perform so well together. They interact so well together on stage. Basically, they blow me away! In short, I LOVE THEM! I CANT GET ENOUGH OF THEM! My only complaint about Live In Istanbul is, as a few other people have noted, the pre-recorded issue of this concert video omitted several songs, including the beautiful Too Much. Although I ran right out and bought this video tape, I did also record the other, (longer) version of this concert when it aired on The Family Channel. This longer version is far better, and I dont know,to this day why they do this to concerts. Anywho, no matter how you slice it, these five girls (Ginger included) are wonderful. They are incredible, and I love them.

This is an EXCELLENT VIDEO, it includes loads of personal commentary from the girls, as they prepare for their live concert. You accually get to watch the concert which includes about 6-7 songs. It Is excellent. Makes you feel like you are accually there. Including all the old songs+ step to it. I LOVE the SPICE GIRLS. Also might want to watch, spice girls in America, a tour story..takes you on tour in America, for all of us, who missed it.
