If you had to pick your three fave girl groups/bands of all time, who are they?

Post video's if you like!

This is hard but for me...

1) Wilson Phillips
2) Expose
3) The Bangles

not far behind...

The Go Go's, Spice Girls, En Vogue....

no clue. i mean really...............i don't think i own any "girl group" cds at all.

If by Girl Group / Band you're restricting it to those with only females included (ie, not just a female vocalist, but with male musicians) I gotta go super old-school and go for the Supremes;

Ditto. All the girl groups I can think of off the top of my head are pretty shallow and vapid. Not m'thang at all...

1. The Bangles--first group I ever loved. I owned all of their cds by the time I was 7. If I ever have a daughter, Susanna will be a serious contender for her name.
2. The Spice Girls--yeah, I'm dating myself.
3. The Dixie Chicks--yeah, I know. But Natalie Maines has an incredible voice.

Close behind: The Go-Go's, the Shangri-Las, pretty much any of the Motown groups.

I don't really listen to their music, but my best friend's dad works closely with WP so I've long heard stories and finally got to meet them a couple of months ago. And seriously--sweetest women! Loved them all, esp. the Wilson sisters (Carnie is hilarious). They ended the night with a few songs (two with Michelle Phillips) and it was just gorgeous.
Sorry--that was probably pretty random, but I just thought I'd share.

I always kinda liked The Donnas... The Bangles & the Go-Gos are okay... En Vogue was hot back in the day.

Can we say Tegan and Sara? Maybe they aren't your typical "girl group" and they do have some guys play some instruments, but it is mostly them and the only girl group I really care to listen to.

That's so cool, thanks for sharing that!! WP are amazing! Fans want them to release a new album with new material (which they haven't sinse 1992). Their last two albums were a Christmas one & a 'remakes' album called 'California in 2004. They might have a new one out this year!

I love Carnie, she's so funny & has a great sense of humor! My fave song from them is actually not one of their hits but a track from the debut album called 'Eyes Like Twins'. The lyrics & harmonies are killer!

Ahh, now there's a girl group with some real substance and absolutely unique talent!

I'm still bitter about how their career was instantly ruined by an utterly idiotic mob mentality.

You know I was never really a "fan" of that record, but any time I hear those songs I am immediately transported back to 1990.

I'm not ashamed to admit that at the age of 21 when they were really popular, I was a huge fan & was in the fan club!

I LOVE my Spice Girls Lollipops!

1 - The Go Go's (LOVE them! They were also pretty groundbreaking. Beauty and the Beat was the first album entirely written and performed by women to top the charts)

2 - Girls Aloud / Heart (I couldn't choose between them. I love Ann and Nancy!)

3 - Dixie Chicks
