Karl Twigg (writer) said this about Light Up the World, back in January:

 

And it’s not just the new tracks that have got Topham & Twigg excited – they’re working on a number of projects, including a Christmas song with the group in mind.

 

Karl previously penned Steps’ 2012 holiday single, Light Up The World, but he insists the new tune won’t have the same “mature” sound.

 

“That Christmas album, I really didn’t get it. It was a bit strange,” he reflects, revealing the pair are “mid-way through” writing a new “all-out Christmas song”.

Steps should ideally have a big banger of a Christmas song that becomes a hit.

 

A proper pop Christmas masterpiece in the vein of All I Want For Christmas Is You, One More Sleep or Underneath The Tree but with a Steps twist of course.

Yessss :wub: :cheer: :yahoo: :w00t:

 

Although sadly don’t think it will be a hit.

If they do it, let them do it the right way this time! A Christmas banger in Steps style (upbeat) and not trying to be too Christmas (boring, as with the Christmas album).

I think you're right unfortunately. Though as long as they bring the goods I'll be happy.

You never know though it could potentially chart which would be a triumph in itself. Just need the right song and the right promo and the right luck… not much then 🤣

True, plus good Christmas playlist support on Spotify and Apple.

 

Or maybe an Amazon Exclusive.

They'd probably make the Top 10 with an Amazon exclusive :lol: If only!
Ya in a dream world they wiukd get an amazon exclusive, I always felt steps were the ideal act to have a big christmas hit,,
Whilst I can see the benefits of a potential Amazon Exclusive (if that’s what it is) I’d be a tiny bit disappointed as I’d probably like to purchase it off iTunes. Oh well if it is then I guess I’ll just sign up to Amazon for Christmas. Still plenty of time to play out though.
I doubt aswell they focus much on single success, they aim is a successful album and tour which so far has gone very well.

Would a new edition with some new tracks and remixed versions of existing tracks work if they did it to get the album a higher peak?

With their comeback more established there are many who are likely unaware of Light up The World's release.

 

I guess if they reworked it with some new fun Christmas tracks and “re-released” it then it could go top 20 I mean their live album went to #18 I can see it peaking higher. They wouldn’t though as it’s on a different label.
