What is an NFC tag?
An NFC tag is a small, programable chip; they are often part of a sticker that is placed somewhere. Most modern phones support NFC. When NFC is enabled on your phone, you simply tap your phone to the chip and the chip will perform the function it's programmed to do – in this case, it will send you a notification that links you to the song on Spotify.
Please note, if you don't have NFC enabled on your phone, this action will not work, but you will still have a super cool looking keychain, and since you bought this keychain, you probably have other ways of listening to the song ;)
About "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls
"Wannabe" was released in July 1996 as the Spice Girls' debut single, written by all five members — Victoria Adams, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm, and Geri Halliwell — along with producers Matt Rowe and Richard Stannard. It reached #1 in 37 countries, making it one of the best-selling singles by a female group in history. The opening sequence — shot in a single continuous take at the St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel in London — remains one of the most recognizable music video openings of the decade. The phrase "girl power," popularized by the Spice Girls around this era, appeared on merchandise and became shorthand for a generation's idea of confident, collective female energy. "Wannabe" still holds the record as the best-charting debut single by an all-female group.
