Spice Girls' 1996 pop classic "Wannabe" turns 25 this year, and to celebrate, the group are releasing a Wannabe25 EP. It will be out digitally on July 9 and physically on August 27 through UMC/EMI/USM.

The EP includes four songs: the original radio edit, a Junior Vasquez remix (which comes from a 1996 CD single), the previously unreleased "Wannabe" demo, and the previously unreleased outtake "Feed Your Love" (a ballad written with the same collaborators as "Wannabe").

Spice Girls are also launching an #IAmASpiceGirl social media campaign. They said in a statement, "The Spice Girls belong to everyone and that's why we want to mark 25 years of 'Wannabe' by celebrating our incredible fans."

Wannabe25 will be available digitally, as well as on vinyl and cassette. (A CD version would have been most era-appropriate, but they don't seem to be making any of those.)
