Steps - General Discussion

[Deleted member 10466]

Whatever happens tomorrow, the fact that almost 25 years in, a Steps album causes this much hysteria and is so successful, is truly incredible.

We really did pick the right band to adore.

Damn, we've all been so busy with Part 2 that we missed their second collaboration!

Manics “intimate” bundle/gig still has 200+ tickets left so that’s a positive. They’re reduced album is at #3 on iTunes and #10 compared to our 6 days at #1.
Let’s just hope we’ve done enough! I’ll be absolutely gutted if we get a #2 again. What a ride this weeks been.

Reading this thread gets me so hyped and forget that money doesn't grow on trees but then I also remember that steps are about to get a number one album and its all worth it...theres a second copy within half an hour bough

The fact that we are even in the running against the Manics (who have 147k followers) at a time when social media is almost as good promo as you can get, speaks volumes.

Just downloaded the After party and Morning after does that count as 2 sales?

 

[TeamSats2012]

My Chalky's CD and vinyls got shipped this evening so three further confirmed first week sales here, and have downloaded the Afterparty and Morning After versions again, after getting the 'you've got a download waiting' email.
I love how they are pushing for the Number 1. It'd be so well deserved!

With more listens I think my Part 2 top 3 look like this:

Victorious, High, Living In A Lie.

The only track I am still on the fence about is Kiss of Life, but even that one I like enough to keep it around.

it does when you download the whole album with it and not just the bonus tracks

Definitely on the first flight to Dubai in the morning.

Thinking about the tour and think we will lose Neon Blue, To The Beat of my Heart, possibly Heartbreak in this City though i would be gutted if we did. (Neon Blue for selfish reasons). Do you think we will get The Slightest Touch cause I think that would really go off?

 

[meeks]

I made sure to select download all, i even watched the tutorial on the steps account haha

 

[Deleted member 10466]

I think Heartbreak is a shoe-in for the tour.

We're not losing Neon Blue. H will leave the band again before we lose Neon Blue.

 

[jbond88]

I think Scared and Neon Blue will stay as the only representation from Tears on this tour.

 

[VivaForever]

We're not losing Neon Blue. H will leave the band again before we lose Neon Blue.

Technically speaking, he already did.

 

[Shockbox]

If we get 8 songs from the 2 new albums then I'm hoping for:

- Take Me For A Ride
- The Slightest Touch
- A Hundred Years of Winter
- What The Future Holds
- Something In Your Eyes
- To The Beat of my Heart
- To The One
- Under My Skin

Considering they’ve said several times that Michelle is going to join them, Heartbreak will survive. The fact Beat Of My Heart is getting so many versions also leads me to believe it’ll be there. Neon Blue is a band favourite so it’ll be there, even if it’s a medley.

This 100%, though if To the One doesn't make it, I'd happily take Wasted Tears as a backup.

Under My Skin is probably now in my Top 3 Steps ballads. Its just such a beautiful track and all 5 shine vocally on it.

Just bought the iTunes download, since the signed Amazon CD doesn’t arrive til next week so won’t count.

I hope they get this! Tomorrow will be tense.
