A session with the production and songwriting duo Richard Stannard and Matt Rowe was booked to record the group's next single, whom previously worked with the Girls on their debut album Spice. During the recording of the Spiceworld tracks, the group was so busy with the filming schedule that the quality of their contributions became more erratic and piecemeal. About the writing process during the session Rowe recalls: "We were talking about Bollywood films, the colours and how the Spice Girls could present themselves. It was a matter of how do we get everything in to one song?"
