🥉 3rd. Jenny Silver - Something In Your Eyes84.5 Points (Average: 7.68) UK Chart Run: N/A Biggest BJ FAN: @Lee_J11 (11) Biggest BJ HATER: @Scene (4) Into the top 3 we go then, and it’s the newest released of the 3, Jenny Silver’s Melodifestivalen 2011 entry! Jenny competed with the song to represent Sweden at Eurovision but sadly failed to advance to the grand final. The song remains an absolute bop, which has followed right through to Steps’ version which I feel is definitely a fan fave amongst their Steps 2.0 efforts! So we have two left and it’s a battle of the titans. Kylie Vs Diana! Who will come out on top?!

@Roba. All Saints? Me? I could never Or could I

Now I’ll be the first one to admit I don’t really care for Lewis but that was one of the better songs I’ve heard from him!

HRVY truly the Conan Gray of the series

The M83 track was actually quite nice, but sending a nigh-on 11 minute song was criminal 😂 Still, not entirely sure it deserved to go though!

Was a bit worried for the bananas for a quick minute but glad they made it through :)

Think she waved that white flag a few rounds too early

I just can’t THINK who is about to leave

We’ll get through this We’ll get past this I’m a girl with A whole lotta baggage

If the cap fits

4th. Five Star - The Slightest Touch81 Points (Average 7.68) UK Chart Run: 14-8-{4}-5-8-15-22-25-51->9 Biggest BJ FAN: @Mangø (10) Biggest BJ HATER: @Viper* @777666jason @Paddington James (6) Finishing in a highly respectable 4th place is The Slightest Touch. Released as the sixth single from their second album, the song was Five Star’s final foray into the top 10, peaking at #4 in 1987. Several members of Steps cite Five Star as one of their favourite childhood music acts so it’s no surprise that they eventually got their way and covered one of their songs. The Slightest Touch was subsequently released as the 3rd single from their What The Future Holds pt.2 album in August 2021 and quickly became a fan fave!

To be fair, the Bananarama version really is quite naff imo 😂 far inferior to the Steps version!

Pasta A La Clara Beyond iconic!

5th. Bananarama - Last Thing On My Mind80 Points (Average: 7.27) UK Chart Run: {71}-74->2 Biggest BJ FAN: @pippa @777666jason (10) Biggest BJ HATER: @Spiceboy (3) Sneaking into the top 5, mostly thanks to pippa’s final vote, we have Last Thing On My Mind! The song was very much a flop for Bananarama, who were now down to 2 members. The song snook in to the top 75 at #71 in 1992, and was their penultimate charting hit before their initial split in 1993. 6 years later, the song had quite the poptastic revamp and a reversal of fortunes as Steps took the song to the dizzy heights of #6, removing any doubt that they’d end up labelled a one hit wonder, and certainly paved the way for what was to come from the band.

6th. Elaine Paige & Barbara Dickson - I Know Him So Well78.5 Points (Average: 7.14) UK Chart Run: 63-34-6-3-2-{1}-1-1-1-2-8-10-28-34-41-62->16 Biggest BJ FAN: @Viper* (10) Biggest BJ HATER: @JB (3) The second song to chart in the UK, and the second to chart at #1, lands in 6th place. The song was written for the musical ‘Chess’, by Tim Rice, Benny Anderson & Björn Ulvaeus, making it the second ABBA-adjacent song to appear in the countdown! Steps recorded the song as part of the Abbamania soundtrack and it was later released as a AA side single with Words Are Not Enough… their final single before their initial split! The song was later covered again by icons Susan Boyle and Geraldine McQueen, and I think we all know which version is the superior one

me whenever Twinks appears on my screen

I’d imagine theyll all begin to fall quite quickly if they carry on like they have done tonight!

Not the micro aggression dvd

That’s it for tonight everybody. The top 6 will hopefully be posted throughout the day tomorrow! A quick reminder of what’s to come; but in which order will they finish up?!

7th Benny Andersson Band - Story Of A Heart77.5 Points (Average: 7.05) UK Chart Run: N/A Biggest BJ FAN: @777666jason @Paddington James @Mangø (8) Biggest BJ Hater: @Jessie Where (5) So, rounding off tonight’s votes in 7th place and just missing out on the top half is Story Of A Heart. The song was famously written by ABBA legends Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus and initially featured on a compilation album released in 2009. The original features vocals from Swedish singer and actress Helen Sjöholm. The Steps version stays fairly loyal to the original and ends up sounding not too dissimilar. Now, if only Benny and Bjorn had enlisted 7th Heaven for their version too

8th. Bee Gees - Tragedy72.5 Points (Average: 6.59) UK Chart Run: 7-2-{1}-1-3-6-11-31-47-62->10 Biggest BJ FAN: @Scene (11) Bigger BJ HATER: @pippa (3) So there we have it, potentially the first ‘shock’ of the competition so far? The first song to appear that has charted in the UK! Not only that, it was a massive #1 for both the Bee Gees AND Steps however, it only finishes here in 8th place! This became the Bee Gees’ 4th UK number one single in 1979. It has since potentially been usurped by the enormous success of Steps’ version, just under 20 years later. Whilst this song is indeed regarded as a classic, I think it’s the immensely high pitched vocals that likely proved to be a turn-off for the members of BJ!

A true tragedy that this didn’t win tbh I still adore the song btw, but it just seems to get all the attention when there are PLENTY of others that deserve it more!

I can neither confirm nor deny that I have a copy of it on my laptop

Think we can guess which way round this one’s gonna go! In anticipation of said result, I wanna share this quite funny (and appropriate) picture I came across on Instragram earlier… 😂
