# 3. Someone Like You

 

 

Top 40 chartruns :

 

UK : 10-23-36 (3 weeks)

 

 

"Gražios Dainos" result : 5 weeks at # 1

 

It's my all-time # 1 favourite duet. :wub:

 

Love this song - on reflection I wish it had charted higher than H&Claire’s debut

 

Good to see someone like you getting rated well and again highlighting you are a fan of the ballads, stacked against Steps material this would not be nearly as high for me but based on solo output its well deserved.

I always loved Faye, sadly she didn't record solo album.

 

My top 3 songs from 2002 year :

1. allSTARS* - The Land Of Make Believe

2. Faye Tozer and Russell Watson - Someone Like You

3. allSTARS* - Back When

The days of buying singles! I bought all of those ❤️

I really enjoyed allstarz version of the land of make believe.

 

"The Land of Make Believe" became only one song in the history of my retrospective chart, which was # 1 in three different versions, when Blogos Mergaites got # 1 with "Norim Buti Vaikais" (cover on Lithuanian language). The combined result is 21 weeks at # 1 (!!!) - nine for Bucks Fizz, seven for allSTARS* and five for Blogos Mergaites. Original was my "Song of the Year" from 1981 year, allSTARS* cover version is my favourite single from 2002.

 

 

I adore all three versions and gave very rare, but deserved 10 / 10 score.

Oh no Dreamer, your list started of so strongly for me and then fell into a pit :lol: Say You'll Be Mine is okay, I guess but I wouldn't even have that top 10 :lol: their cover of Better The Devil You Know was really strong though!

It's very predictable, but amazing winner. :cheer:

'It's The Way You Make Me Feel' is a gem, and I do have a real soft spot for 'Say You'll Be Mine'.

That is a good winner, I'll give you that. I love the video. It's one of my favourite steps videos.

The final two songs have saved this list a little, there was some interesting choices from my point of view!

Say you'll be mine is great I've always loved it.

I do like its the way you make me feel but prefer say you'll be mine and a good few others. As I previously said your steps taste is very different to mine.

A great top choice, It's the Way You Make Me Feel is also my favourite single of theirs from the 1997-2001 period of Steps.

 

Two of your highest placed Steps songs Words Are Not Enough/I Know Him So Well... hmm, one of my least favourite singles. A bit of a blah moment for them to bow out on. Baby Don't Dance or Only in My Dreams would have been better choices.

 

I'm pretty certain that I haven't heard Someone Like You since 2002. I can't remember how it goes at all, but my memory of it is that I found it boring. Maybe I'll revisit it; 33 year old me might have an appreciation for it that 14 year old me really did not.

 

Similarly I've probably not heard H & Claire's version of Beauty and the Beast since 2002, and I didn't buy the single, so that probably says a lot about how I felt about it at the time. Celine >>>

Words are Not Enough is a weak song from Steps.

Whilst most of this top 10 wouldn’t be in line with mine I appreciate it.

 

It’s great to see such differing tastes in top 10’s.

Thanks for all comments. :)

 

See you later in a similar thread with my favourite Kylie singles .
