Wannabe Dancer
Soundtrack to My Life - Track seven


I’m attempting to make it look like I’m not just trying to write these as quickly as I can. But, I won’t lie to you, I am.

For track seven, I am taking you, for the third and final time, back to my final year of primary school. This time, we’re going right to the very end - maybe the last one or two weeks.

Track seven was released on 7th July 1996 - I left primary school on 17th July 1996. The track took the UK by storm, including our classroom. We weren’t really expected to do any work as we were all outta there and not their problem any more. So, we just played games and did lots of random, extremely unproductive, stuff.

As I said, we had a stereo in our classroom. Therefore, just like in the case of Fairground, Wannabe by The Spice Girls was played over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. Only, this time there was a great deal of dancing going on. I, personally, don’t think I danced on the tables but I know everyone else did.

I cannot listen to this song without picturing that year six classroom…
