Victoria Beckham has revealed the Spice Girls track that no longer spices up her life.
The singer-turned-fashion mogul, 47, explained on the recent episode theSkimm's podcast, 9 to 5ish, that she would prefer to never perform the girl group's hit track 'Wannabe' again.
"I enjoyed it at the time," Beckham said in a sneak preview from E! News.

"You know what, because I just don't think it sounded the same on my own. There you go. I need the others for that."
The Brit was also joined by Beckham Beauty CEO Sarah Creal on the episode.
Despite her Spice Girls era being a distant memory for the Posh Spice, Beckham says she still has a lot of respect and love for her fellow bandmates: Mel B, Mel C, Geri Halliwell and Emma Bunton. The mum of four, who's married to football legend David Beckham, explained how the pop group taught her to work hard in the industry — before she eventually transitioned into fashion and beauty.
"I think that it's fundamentally about working really hard and the product has got to be good," she noted on the podcast. "So with the Spice Girls, the music was really good, the music stood up for itself. You know, the lyrics stood up for themselves. The melodies did."

The Spice Girls' song 'Wannabe' was released in 1996 and topped the UK singles charts for seven weeks. When the track was released in the US in January 1997, it topped the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks. It was the group's only number-one single in that country. By the end of 1996, 'Wannabe' had topped the charts in 22 nations.
'Wannabe' became the best-selling single by a girl group in the world, with over 7 million copies sold worldwide by the end of 1997.
Last year, the girl group celebrated the track's 25th anniversary and shared touching tributes to their time together as a band, which formed in 1994 and has been active intermittently since their first break in 2000.
"25 years of 'Wannabe'. Wow. The song that changed the lives of five girls from Britain," Halliwell wrote, alongside a collection of images of the girl group, one of which is a candid snap, and another from a black-and-white shoot. "The first picture was taken in my back garden on a Sunday — we were all listening to the radio together that day we went to number 3 in the charts!!"

"25 years! Can you believe it?!" she wrote. "With the help of our amazing fans this song catapulted us on our incredible journey, so much love and thanks to you guys today, the wonderful Matt and Biff, and my darling Spice Girls ❤️."
