I hope this isn't the time of all future updates, cause I'm not usually up this time. Time zone issues
Definitely not! I just wanted to get things started finally. I wanted to do the next update tomorrow afternoon, so that European members could participate as well.

When the Spice Girls broke up, they left a double-decker bus-sized hole in the pop music scene. Among the mostly unsuccessful attempts to fill it was Nobody's Angel, another multicultural girl group with an infectiously danceable debut. Their career highlights include reaching #39 on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart and appearing on a very special episode of Boy Meets World in which Cory takes Shawn on a road trip to get Shawn's mind off his father's death. Nobody's Angel played waitresses who sing in a diner, which was probably a bit closer to reality than they would have liked.
Best bit: the groovy horn line, which elevates "If You Wanna Dance" above throwaway teen pop
The music video... = the set from TLC's "Waterfalls" + leftover costumes from a Britney Spears mall tour + iMovie effects.
