Scream If You Wanna Go Faster - Geri Halliwell

If ever an album cover says it all then surely the cover of Geri Halliwells Scream If You Wanna Go Faster does. Geri looks athletic, fit, happy and sexy. Does the album sound as good as the cover though? The title track opens the album and this is a good upbeat start. Its quite a good song but already there is an impression that the lyrics needed a bit more work or at least a bit more thought. There is also a feeling that the song was put together and Geri just sang over the top of it. The vocals seem disjointed and manufactured, too many displaced uh-uhs are thrown in. Shake Your Bootie Cutie follows and this sounds like a song recorded for a fitness video. It ...  Read the complete review

Geri. There's no doubt that she's a superstar and has left her ex-bandmates trailing behind in the success and popularity stakes. Her debut, Schizophonic, was a wacky affair that proved there was life outside Spice that was infinitely better than Forever, the album the Spice Girls released after she left. Schizophonic sold 500,000 copies in the UK, but unfortunately this has failed to sell in similar quantities. It's not very clear what went wrong; some say it was not enough promotion, others think that it was not a good idea to release the first single (It's Raining Men) from a film, becasue fans of the song might buy the soundtrack to BRidget Jones as ...  Read the complete review

“Fifteen Minutes – Are You Gonna Screw It?” Well, Geri Halliwell has had more than fifteen minutes in the spotlight of fame, and she is definitely doing alright out of it! In a Madonna-esque way, she is riding a rollercoaster of weight fluctuations, image changes and being publicly dumped by famous boyfriends, but she is still here, strong, opinionated and producing some great music. Putting my cards on the table, I am a big fan of hers. I liked the Spice Girls, although she wasn’t my favourite member. Once she left and embarked on her solo career, she seemed to improve, finally being able to be more herself out of the ...  Read the complete review

Ø Introduction Geri Halliwell’s anticipated second album, the follow-up to the hit album “Schizophonic” was the petrol fuelled “Scream If You Wanna Go Faster” Like the previous album which spawned three consecutive number one singles, this album seems to be doing like wise. The first release, “It’s Raining Men” a cover of the weather girls track that is on the Bridget Jones Diary soundtrack, shot straight to number one and the next release, the name sake of the album, seems to be heading the same way. ♪♫ The Tracks ♪♫♪ The current single release “Scream If You ...  Read the complete review

We all know this lady and her somewhat turbulent career, with her departure from the Spice girls under somewhat dubious circumstances she started work as a UN ambassedor then once again releasing music as a solo artist. Her first album was Schizophonic, followed by Scream if you Wanna go Faster. Well I had mixed feelings over this before I bought it as she has had a lot going on in her life, with her recent turbulent relationship with Robbie Williams who claimed they were sleeping together to the press and Geri?s outright denials. Then there was the way that she has been extremely worked up over her weight issue as it was said that she is receiving vitamin injections to ...  Read the complete review
