Spice Girls favourites for reunion

A Yahoo! Music UK poll of fans names the Spice Girls as the group they most want to see reunite, with 17 per cent of votes, ahead of Led Zeppelin and The Police.

The Spice Girls have been voted the group most UK idiots, sorry, I mean music fans would like to see reunite. Following the huge success of the recent Take That reunion, Yahoo Music UK surveyed music fans on which band they would most like to see back together.

While the poll was far from conclusive, with a number of bands getting similar levels of votes, the Spice Girls polled the highest with 17% saying they would like to see the group perform together again. Led Zeppelin came in second, with The Police third. The Jam and the Stone Roses were also mentioned.

Commenting on the results of the survey, Yahoo! Music UK Editor Gareth Bellamy told reporters: "The Spice Girls' music, like it or loathe it, has that amazing ability to transport the listener straight back to their heyday".

Of course there have been rumours for a long time of a possible Spice Girls reunion, more recently specifically regarding the possibility of some concerts to coincide with the release of a greatest hits album. Geri Halliwell, who quit the group, of course, is supposedly up for rejoining her former bandmates, but Melanie Chisholm is said to be less keen on reforming the band.
