Oh my gosh! This cd is so cool! It has two new b-sides, Perhaps, Perhaps and These Boots Were Made for Walking. It also comes with the cd-rom video and it is the funniest thing I have even seen. You wouldn't believe it. Oh my gosh. Like everybody has to buy this, Go Go Geri Go!

An excellant stand out track on her solo CD. The sound is kinda like her spice girls song "Who do you think you are" either way a good vibe and great dance song. Plus the two extra songs, a cover of "These boots were made for walking" and "Perhaps,Perhaps,Perhaps" are good examples of this womans diversity. Buy it, you won't be disappointed!

This single follows in the tradition of Geri's two pervious singles with two new tracks.

Bag It Up - the title track is a dancey disco party waiting to happen.

These Boots Are Made For Walking - Geri's version has more of a beat to it than Nancy Sinatra's, and she makes it her own (although the vocals and music are very similar in style). Chalk up another cool and groovy track from Ms. Halliwell!

Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps - I like this track. Geri's cute chuckles at the end are just precious. In spite of that, the song does tend to not be very original. Don't get me wrong, I like it, but I wish it was more dancey. I was expecting it to be like Samantha Fox's version, but alas, it's cute and fun and all Geri!

A lovely ode to 'girl powder', I can definately see why this fast paced, playful feminist anthem hit #1 in the UK. The awesome b-sides, 'These Boots Are Made For Walking' and 'Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps' are excellent as well. A must have for any true Geri Halliwell fan.

This single is the greatest - So are Geri's other singles. My fav song on this single is These Boots are made for walking. Go and buy it, it's worth the money

Geri Halliwell's fourth and final single is Bag It Up. It's a very up-beat song with a lot things 'happening' at the same time. Give the song flavour I think. The lyrics are seductive again, just like in some of her other singles, maybe that's why she was named Sexy Spice. The B-side track These Boots Were Made For Walking, sounds just like Nancy Sinatra herself is singing it. Would have been perfect for Austin Powers! It's sang almost identical to Nancy's original song, and the background music is nearly similiar. Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps the last b-side of this single is a song of which Latin Flavour pours out! Latin beats of the drum, guitar, and other percussion start off this song. Geri sings the lyrics with her latin music. The lyrics (which you'll find me rarely talking about) basically describe a relationship with a person who's always making up excuses, and she's finally fed up with things, and ready to say "Love me, or hit the road Jack!" It's a great buy, this single is the best of the all of her solo works!

As popular as remixes are becoming, it is the rare B-sides that attract many would-be buyers and fans of Geri Halliwell have waited patiently for more of those B-sides.

"Bag It Up" Part I is no exception. Containing Miss Halliwell's latest #1 smash (original album cut) this CD contains, "These Boots Are Made For Walking" and "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps." Also included is the video of Bag it Up which you can play on your computer.

The extra songs contained here are worth the purchase of this single. She takes us back to the 60s with funky beats and tamborine shakes. These Boots sounds like an unreleased track from the Austin Powers Soundtrack. Even Doris Day would have to agree Geri's take on her classic is all in Geri style, a feat that no one could duplicate.

Although not widely available in US record stores, Part I can be found at many an auction house. Don't spend a fortune, but this is well worth a few extra dollars. My advice...stay away from Part II (see review!)

Bag It Up by Geri Halliwell is a cool song but the real magic is the two unreleased bonus track. Both are covers, Nancy Sinatra's hit, These Boots are Made for Walkin' and Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps by Doris Day. Geri was cool back in the day, I'll give her that! Great purchase, buy it today!

I think this album is great. The music is fantastic, well..., you have to buy it! It's really really good! But... What's up with the new album? (I WANT IT NOW! )

I think, well... this is a great single!. I really love Geri, she's the best for me! (The Spice Girls too..)
