Who doesn’t know the Spice Girls? I mean, they were THE girl band of the nineties. They caused a wave of fans to brazenly risk broken ankles in platform heels and cut boys down to size in the playground with a simple chant of “Girl Power.”

But as Ariana Grande sadly discovered this week, there’s a whole wave of young fans who just aren’t familiar with all things Spice. SOB.

The 24-year old tweeted lyrics this week to the Spice Girls iconic 1996 hit Say You’ll Be There, posting: “I'm........ giving you evvvvvverything.

“alll that joooooooy can bring, this i swear.”

But young fans were just left confused by the posts, with some even assuming they were lyrics to new music by Ariana. Sigh.

One fan tweeted: “SIS ARE THESE LYRICS? SPILL THE GOD DAMN TEA.”

Another said: “like this if these are lyrics.”

Ariana quickly responded, tweeting: “omg they're spice girls lyrics not A4 tea am i old?”

Yes Ariana. Apparently we’re all old now. So if you need us, we’re going to be listening to Spice Girls’ first album on a Discman, sat in an inflatable chair, sipping on Sunny D.

Like the good old days.
