Background and Composition
The song was initially written by Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell with help from producers, with the other three girls adding later on. Musically, "Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)" is a pop and electronic-ballad song, which talks about the group reuniting, mainly talking about their friendship throughout two decades together.
Halliwell described the single as a "big love song" and "a Spice Girl classic". Another group member, Melanie Chisholm in her 2008 appearance on Never Mind The Buzzcocks announced, that she thought "this song is not good at all" and that at least she was against the release of any new material when the record company was trying to market the Greatest Hits release.
