^ You're welcome! I wonder why they've leaked now... the Steps vault has been sealed for years and now we get these out of nowhere.
QUOTE(spiceboy @ Dec 31 2023, 09:51 AM)  Any lyrics for these I'll try and write them out soon.  I haven't listened to them yet, need to get around to it!

Enjoying both of these, Long Way Home in particular.
I’d love that to get a proper release, even as an album track. |

I've read on Popjustice that there's also been quite a few Claire song leaks:
If I Can't Have You Knock On Wood 2 versions of Sweet Freedom Snippet of So Emotional Demo Snippet of Let Love Come To Me |

Listening back to these both now properly they'd have fitted well onto Gold back in 2001 and even a new album in 2002.

It was considered as a follow up single to 5,6,7,8 and continue the “line dance artist” thing, before they went in a different direction! |

Crikey at Stompin', if they'd gone with that after 5,6,7,8 it would have been the end of a short-lived novelty career in the vein of Vanilla I think. It sounds like one of Pete's 80s rejects. Thank god for the idea to turn them into 'ABBA on speed' instead and Last Thing On My Mind. What a Sliding Doors moment I've just had listening to that.
What era were the first two songs from? I like Long Way Home, it's like a cross between (I Just) Died In Your Arms and Alcazar's early material. This post has been edited by gooddelta: 1st January 2024, 10:09 AM |

Long Way Home is supposedly from the Buzz era, while No Easy Way to Say Goodbye is a Gold reject!
I'm not sure if this is actually true, but I read on Popjustice that the Demon label* was apparently working on a Rare & Unreleased Steps album "about a decade ago", but scrapped it. As well as those two songs, it was also set to include these songs: - Nothing at All - No Matter What You Say - If I Could Say the Words - All or Nothing - Endless Moment Interesting if it's true and I wonder why the kibosh was put on it? * The label that is releasing the first three Steps albums on vinyl |

Stompin’
 …I’m very happy they went the other way! It’s not terrible, but I don’t think their career would’ve lasted that long indeed! My ratings atm: No easy way to say goodbye 7/10 (very Britney album track) Long way home 7.5/10 (Typical Steps) Stompin’ 5.5/10 (not bad but very gimmicky) And that Rare & Unreleased album would’ve been interesting! |

Agree with others, ditching Stompin’ was the right call. It’s not a terrible song, I just think it’d have done worse chart and sales wise than 5,6,7,8 did.
It is nice hearing (I presume Lee) on vocals again. |

Would’ve been really nice if it had’ve happened. |

It might be an unpopular opinion but I’d be happy for that. |

All Or Nothing - A demo recorded before the release of Gold Greatest Hits, the track has not been commercially released. Close To Me - Performed live by Lee on the Gold Greatest Hits tour but overdubbed with a studio recording for the End Of The Road DVD. Come On Get Together - Performed live by Lee on the Steptacular tour but overdubbed with a studio recording for the live@wembley.2000 VHS. Dance Ranch - Confirmed to exist in an August 2022 YouTube video, Dance Ranch was another demo considered for release as a follow-up to 5, 6, 7, 8. Long Way Home - A demo recorded before the release of Gold Greatest Hits, the track has not been commercially released but was later recorded by Charlotte Perrelli. Mirror, Mirror - Recorded by Steps but never released. The track was confirmed to exist when H posted an image of a CD-R featuring the track online. No Easy Way To Say Goodbye - A demo recorded before the release of Gold Greatest Hits, the track has not been commercially released. R Dancing - Performed live by Faye on the Steptacular tour but overdubbed with a studio recording for the live@wembley.2000. Run To You - Recorded by Steps but never released. The track was confirmed to exist in a magazine interview. Stompin' - Stompin' was considered as a follow-up single to 5, 6, 7, 8 but was shelved in favour of Last Thing On My Mind. The track was eventually recorded and released by the Fast Food Rockers. |
