Sporty Spice Melanie C has recently talked with MTV News (US) and expressed her feelings on the current state of pop music and where the Spice Girls stand in it. Melanie said: "Initially we were standing up there for Girl Power and everything, which is fantastic. Now there's a lot of girl bands. There's a lot more female artists, maybe not having to do with us, but you know, it's made it more acceptable, and in Britain there's some great pop out there... and there's a lot of terrible pop out there, which is a shame. But that's always the way. When something comes out in fashion, when something becomes successful, everybody jumps on the bandwagon. So that's something which is quite sad, but it was gonna happen. It was gonna happen anyway, and I mean, I feel now music is... enough already with the pop. You know, I think it's time for the next stage, thank you very much. I mean, okay, Spice Girls - we're a pop band, but I think we're the more sophisticated end of pop. I like to think so, anyway."
