Further planned singles to be released in late 2000 never materialized. However official promotional singles of the songs "Tell Me Why", and "If You Wanna Have Some Fun" surfaced and went into circulation. In October 2000 "Tell Me Why" was syndicated to UK radio stations, whilst a promotional montage video for "If You Wanna Have Some Fun" was released to UK television networks. "Tell Me Why" was widely believed to be the next single to be released from the album. "Tell Me Why" was written by Victoria Beckham, Emma Bunton, Melanie Brown and various other writers. Melanie C was not invloved with the writing of this song due to schedualing conflicts with her solo album, Northern Star. The song is believed to be about the remaining Spice Girls' frustration after ex-bandmate, Geri Halliwell, left the group.
