Posted June 17, 20223 yr Hello and welcome to the Steps Forum 'Ultimate 25 Steps Songs'. What started as a simple Ultimate Rank by Hazelnuts back in February has turned into a forum wide rank where 7 of us ranked our Ultimate 25 Steps songs. I have taken all of these ranks and assigned each song points based on where they placed in each members rank. The song that ranked 25th received 1 point, 24th received 2 points, 23rd received 3 points and so on, all the way to the #1 ranked song receiving 25 points. For instances in the top 25 where songs were tied on points the song which got more individual votes got the higher placing. I considered this fair as it featured in more ranks. A total of 48 different Steps songs received votes from the 7 individual ranks, so which 25 do you think made the Ultimate Rank? Thank you to the following 7 members who took part and posted their ranks: The number in () denotes how many songs from that members Ultimate 25 made the overall one. Hazelnuts (19) Paradise Lost (22) Yobnedor (21) Lukuzz (17) Feel_The_Fever (20) Spiceboy (19) Jay (21) I will kick off the countdown with #25 over the weekend but before I do I'd love to see some comments and predictions before we start. I will take a break in the countdown (probably before the top 10) and reveal the 23 songs that missed out. Looking forward to revealing this list, I hope this will be fun!

June 18, 20223 yr Good start on the countdown, i place dit 23rd on my own chart so its not hugely far off.
June 18, 20223 yr Though it missed my countdown I’m happy to see this one in here! Very solid album track and shows that their new material is strong as well :) Very curious to see the rest!
June 18, 20223 yr Author #24 - 5,6,7,8 - 35 KnMSsJhCFBE In at #34 is the song that started it all, 5,6,7,8. Without it would we have Steps? Released in the UK on the of 10th November 1997 it would debut at #18 before peaking at #14 a few weeks later. However it was when it was released internationally in early-mid 1998 that Steps really started to get a taste of the upper regions of the charts., peaking at #2 in New Zealand and going all the way to #1 in Australia. 5,6,7,8 received votes from 4 of the 7 participants. (14-8-11-2) Paradise Lost - 12th (14) Yobender - 18th (8) Feel_The_Fever - 15th (11) Spiceboy - 24th (2) Edited June 19, 20223 yr by Paradise Lost
June 18, 20223 yr 5,6,7,8 really deserves its place in the countdown as without it we would have missed out on so much.
June 18, 20223 yr I’m ok with the song! Not their best, definitely not their worst. And without this song they wouldn’t be were they are today!
