steps - Can't Stop The Pop

Steps – Tragedy

‘Tragedy’ might’ve been released as a double-A side single, but Steps’ inspired cover of a Bee Gees classic became bigger than anyone predicted.

With Christmas fast approaching, ’90s pop music tradition dictated that it was finally time for Steps to release a ballad.

The final Christmas chart battle of the millennium(!) saw Steps enter the fray with their take on a Kylie Minogue classic.

Coming off the back of a greatest hits collection and amid rumours of an impending split, Steps wouldn’t leave us with a ballad…would they?

Every pop act has to start somewhere, even if that place is techno-country line dancing. It’s time to begin, now count it in…

The arrival of Scooch saw Mike Stock and Matt Aitken attempt to play Pete Waterman at his own game. Line dancing and all.

‘Stomp’ earned Steps a long overdue second #1 single, even if it wasn’t necessarily a song that showcased them at their very best.

In an exceptionally candid interview, Darren Hayes talks about the success he enjoyed with Savage Garden and his journey as a solo artist.

The arrival of Britney Spears saw Ellie Campbell’s second single, ‘So Many Ways’ suddenly take her in an entirely new direction.

It might have been a little late to the party, but ‘Summer Of Love’ still managed to put a uniquely Steps-twist on the Latin-pop craze.

‘Here and Now’ was very much the silver lining to an ominous cloud that was starting to gather over Steps.

‘After The Love Has Gone’ saw Steps draw on one of their biggest hits and give it a very Oriental twist.
