For a long time this was not available on YouTube. I am so happy that now it is. This is such a great song. Brings beautiful memories.

Bro I'm faded AF and I just started singing this random song out of nowhere that I never heard before. I look it up and end up here, IT WAS THE EXACT SAME SONG! I must've somehow dredged it up from my subconscious. Maybe I heard it once when I was a baby.

A truly unique singer. I want to hear this singer's voice forever.

"I really think Emma could have had a decent solo career if they would have picked the right songs for her...she had good singing talent, and her looks would have made her popular."

Tbh I overlooked her when she was a Spice Girl. But out of all of them, she puts out the best music.
