Forever is the third and final studio album by English girl group the Spice Girls, released on 1 November 2000 by Virgin Records. It is their only album without Geri Halliwell, who later rejoined the group for their Greatest Hits album in 2007.
Forever peaked at number two on the UK Albums Chart, becoming the group's only studio album to not top the UK charts. It was later certified Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). The album also only reached number 39 on the US Billboard 200. Worldwide the album has sold over two million copies, a commercial disappointment compared to their two previous albums Spice and Spiceworld.
The lead and only single, the double A-side "Holler" and "Let Love Lead the Way", went on to debut at number one on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the group's ninth number one single. Their 1998 Christmas single "Goodbye", released almost two years earlier, was also included on the album as the closer. "Tell Me Why", "Weekend Love", and "If You Wanna Have Some Fun" were released as promotional singles from the album, with the latter having a montage music video released exclusively to European music stations.
