As long as you don’t pair it with Track 7…

5. Last Thing On My Mind

 

 

Always a favourite of mine! To me, this is peak Steps. It’s upbeat, it’s catchy, it’s fun, it’s camp and it has a great video (Lee. Lee. Lee…) Before the 2017 reunion, this would have been a contender for my number 1 but as I’ve pointed out from the off, I much prefer their material post reunion… but is there another earlier single to come?

Great way to kick off the top 5, the first Steps single I owned. I think my Mum bought it for me.

Good start to your final 5. I always liked last thing on my mind.

LYM is a nice cover and I think it would’ve been nice as a double A with BBF!

 

LTOMM! A very important song that shaped that into ‘a hot new popband’ instead of being one day flies. It was low in my countdown just because I heard it too much. Still, this is another Steps classic!

Love U More and Last Thing On My Mind are both stellar choices, shocked you have some taste ! 😂

Any Steps fan has taste :P

4. Better The Devil You Know

 

 

Prior to the reunion, if you’d have asked me what my favourite Steps song was, I probably would have said Better The Devil. In fact… I think I prefer it to Kylie’s version although granted, both are amazing. This song always reminds me of a childhood memory when I was at a kids party and you had to guess the song and artist via the intro. They played the intro and of course I piped up with Better The Devil but the DJ was suitably impressed when a then ten year old told him it’s Steps or Kylie depending on which version he wanted!

Just before the Top 3, here are a few that didn’t quite make it:

 

Love’s Got a Hold on My Heart

Take Me For a Ride

After The Love Has Gone

When I Said Goodbye

 

So what is in the top 3? You’ll find out later!

I can never decide whose version I like better as I think both are great tbh. Not sure it would be this high on mine like but you will have to see ;)

And the shocks keep coming, I do like Steps version though.

There is no contest kylies original s a million times better than steps cover.

I heard Steps' version first, before I even knew who Kylie was(!), so a part of me will always feel like it was Steps' song first... haha. I do love Kylie's original, but Steps have my sentimentality. I've never really heard what apparently makes it so much worse than Kylie's version tbh.

 

It wouldn't be this high up my own rank but it's nice to see it here! Those memories you shared James, you were always destined to be a music boffin :wub: :cool:

I need to take time to reply to this and paradise lost’s countdown will do it when you posted them all James and Paradiae lost tonight.

Steps Better The Devil You Know is enjoyable.

Kylie Better The Devil You Know is classic.

I still can’t decide which way round my two songs at 2/3 should be argh!!!

Make a decision !

Make a decision !

 

Stop putting me under pressure!!!!

3. Scared of the Dark

 

 

WHAT a song. What a comeback! I honestly cannot praise this song enough. What it did for Steps and their comeback totally surpassed all expectations. My only slight annoyance with this song is that you can hear a mixing error during the first verse! If they got that sorted it would make a 9.9/10 song into a 10/10 song! Bravo Steps…

 

But there are still two more songs I prefer ;)
