Spice Girls: "Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)"
Real pop stars are more than just popular; they are barometers for an era, providing the images for the world's memories of a particular time. Look back to the 1960s and we see those Beatles smiles and monochrome suits. Cast your mind back to the late 1990s and it is those Girls, those songs, that dress. Music snobs might sniff at the comparison to the Fab Four but all those Beatles dolls, Beatles annuals and movies that made John, Paul, George and Ringo such omnipotent beings in the 1960s were re-created in the 1990s with just as much fervour around Emma, Geri, Mel B, Melanie C and Victoria.

2006 Pontiac Solstice Review
The good: Great-looking lines and meticulous handling give the 2006 Pontiac Solstice two of the key ingredients of a thrilling roadster.
The bad: A terrible gearbox means that drivers have to fight the shifter when changing down and gun the engine to maintain speed when changing up. Aside from a multisource optional stereo, cabin tech ends with the (optional) power windows.
The bottom line: The 2006 Pontiac Solstice is a car for teenage girls with a love of cosmetics or midlife-crisis guys happy to get a budget boy-racer image without the performance to back it up. Those wanting a real roadster experience should look elsewhere.
