In celebration of its 25th anniversary this month, we are delving into one of the most poptastic albums of the 90s ‘Steptacular’.
Steptacular undoubtedly cemented Steps reputation as being the best pop act in the UK; producing 6 top 5 singles, 2 sold out arena tours and going 4x platinum. Released on October 25th 1999, It has sold over 1.3 million copies and remains their only UK number 1 studio album to date. It also performed incredibly well across the globe, going to number 1 in Scotland, number 2 in Belgium, number 11 in Ireland, number 25 in Australia, 25 in Japan and top 50 on the Dutch album charts. It was the 7th highest selling album in the UK of 1999 as well as the 45th highest selling album in 2000.
We take a HUGE deep dive into the album, our memories of this monumental time in pop history and go through every song on the album track-by-track. But most importantly we answer the question, is 'My Best Friends Girl' the sequel to 'Track 7'?
