October 4, 20213 yr With acts like ed sheeran, dermot kennedy and dua lipa doing cd singles I really think Steps should do the same.
October 4, 20213 yr The Slightest Touch being released on a Friday and actually showing up in the first midweeks shows the potential is there for them to chart. I feel like it should have got a full blown single push pre-album release. Having it as a promo/instant grat back then was a waste of its potential! BMG have a blind spot when it comes to CD singles it seems, it’s annoying because their roster of artists are essentially all from the era of CD singles… the fan base would buy them if they existed!! It’s certainly weird how most CD singles these days are coming from relatively modern artists.
October 4, 20213 yr Bmg def have a blind spot with cd singles and it's strange but good strange that its the modern artists doing cd singles the oldies need to jump on it.

Yeah I don’t understand their lack of physical singles, the likes if Kylie would shift a few thousand from her official store every time. Edited October 5, 20213 yr by spiceboy
October 5, 20213 yr Kylie and Steps could easily sell 5k physicals in the uk alone, and maybe 10k for worldwide.
October 5, 20213 yr Lol now we've discussed this, Kylie is finally releasing a CD single again in the UK, for her upcoming new single. So BMG... can we have CD singles for Steps too, please? :(

October 5, 20213 yr They have to be, maybe they will surprise with an announcement soon and go the full hog and announce a cd and vinyl single for the slightest touch.
October 5, 20213 yr BMG may start taking advantage of the very slight revival in the CD singles market.
October 7, 20213 yr I hope they do, i still love a physical single, i grew up with them in different formats over the years but always loved buying them.
October 7, 20213 yr Me too! I really hope Kylie's CD single shows that BMG is open to doing more. Feels like they're becoming more common again... there's one for Elton/Dua Cold Heart, Coldplay's recent two singles, Ed Sheeran's singles, The Weeknd Take My Breath, Jesy Nelson's debut single, The Wanted's comeback single... to name just a few!
October 8, 20213 yr There is a hint of growing popularity for CD singles again. Kylie's upcoming release may see BMG test the market for artists such as Steps on their rota.
October 8, 20213 yr I really hope they release a vinyl or something! Hopefully we can get some news soon.
October 8, 20213 yr Go all out and release 6 different cd singles,, group one and then individual like they did with the album.
October 8, 20213 yr I am loving this CD single resurgence, it will really help boosts acts like these and Kylie's chart appearances. I do begrudge paying through my nose for a 1-track CD single a bit though.
