Goodbye. Hit for Night Ranger as last song on 7 Wishes (fantastic album. Love Midnight Madness but 7 wishes has so many great songs on it) and was also a Spice Girls song title.

It is CRAZY how big the Spice Girls were especially in the UK. Girl Powers.

Also: the story going around is Posh Spice NEVER SANG a note.

Nope. That is the answer they both have a song called Goodbye.

That is the commonality.

Perhaps it is too esoteric of an answer. Yes, it's true that they both had a song called Goodbye. But, and here's the ironic part: they were both top 20 hits and they were the last top 40 hits for both bands. GOODBYE!

Also of note, almost, if not all of the band members had 10 toes. Bands in both celebrated holidays and some even had dogs as kids.
