Posted April 18, 20214 yr I’ve seen this mentioned in a few threads about Back To You / Love U More being a missed opportunity and it got me thinking what other ones do people think there were? I agree with Back To You / Love U More, that would’ve been great. Another one I’ve started to think I’d now preferred the fourth single be Stay With Me / Tragedy. Heartbeat is ok but Stay With Me is the better ballad of the two for me. 5, 6, 7, 8 - Last Thing On My Mind - One For Sorrow - Stay With Me/Tragedy - Better Best Forgotten - Back To You/Love U More I’ll go through and do the other albums in the next day or two, just need to give them a bit more thought.

April 18, 20214 yr I love Stay with me but I disagree about it being a better single release than Heartbeat. Heartbeat sounds much more radio friendly. I think they got most of their singles spot on but if each album could have had one more single I'd say: STEP ONE 5,6,7,8 - Last thing on my mind - One for sorrow - Heartbeat / Tragedy - Better best forgotten - Love u more / Back to you STEPTACULAR Love got a hold of my heart - Say you'll be mine - After the love has gone / Better the devil you know - Deeper shade of blue - When I said goodbye / Summer of love (actually don't think any of the others were needed) BUZZ Stomp - The way you make me feel - Paradise lost - Here and now / You'll be sorry GOLD Chain reaction - Baby don't dance - Words are not enough LIGHT UP THE WORLD Light up the world - History is made at night TEARS ON THE DANCEFLOOR Scared of the dark - Neon blue - Story of a heart - Happy - Dancing with a broken heart WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS What the future holds - Something in your eyes - To the beat of my heart - Heartbreak in this city - To the one
April 18, 20214 yr Out of the above though I only really think Back to you / Love u more and Paradise lost were proper missed opportunities to get another hit single.
April 18, 20214 yr I think most of their singles were pretty spot on, especially with 'Step One' & 'Steptacular', but with some of their later material I'd do.. Buzz Stomp - It's The Way You Make Me Feel - Here And Now/Paradise Lost - Happy Go Lucky/Chain Reaction Gold - Greatest Hits Chain Reaction/Happy Go Lucky - Words Are Not Enough - Baby Don't Dance Tears On The Dancefloor Scared Of The Dark - Story of a Heart - Neon Blue - Happy - Dancing With A Broken Heart/Fool For You What The Future Holds What The Future Holds - Something In Your Eyes - To The Beat Of My Heart - Heartbreak In This City [PERFECT RUN]
April 18, 20214 yr Back to You and Paradise lost are the 2 big ones for me and next would be happy go lucky.
April 18, 20214 yr Paradise Lost sticks out the most to me, I remember being stunned when Here and Now/You’ll Be Sorry was announced as the last single from Buzz. Edited April 18, 20214 yr by Testosterone
April 18, 20214 yr Love U More was the missing option from Step One and I would have released Paradise Lost from Buzz but after Here and Now as that’s my favourite song by them. I never quite understood When I Said Goodbye or You’ll be sorry. From Gold I hated Baby Don’t Dance so glad we didn’t get it. I much preferred Only In My Dreams
April 18, 20214 yr On step one nearly all the tracks were good enough to be singles, if dudes were a thing back then this album could be closer to 2 million.
April 19, 20214 yr On step one nearly all the tracks were good enough to be singles, if dudes were a thing back then this album could be closer to 2 million. What did you mean to say? Echoing others, Love U More would have been a great single (I feel like it would have surprised some of the public) and Paradise Lost is a gem!

July 14, 20214 yr To be fair they never have had to struggle with single choices from their albums they generally had loads of good songs to choose from.
July 14, 20214 yr myqPT6SopFE Maybe not a full single, but Over You deserved better. Definitely should have been on their album!
