No, apart from Claire’s “about us” mega-note at the end of One For Sorrow, which I’m assuming would’ve been recorded during vocal rehearsals for Party on the Dancefloor.
Steps - General Discussion
- Thread starter johnoc2006
- Start date
Yes he could’ve.
Change 'do' to 'get'!
They're a pipe dream, sadly.
If they are to release some of them, they may be not reluctant to release more.
The digital extended editions of Future 1 and 2 contain a lot of alternative versions (acoustic, karaoke, remixes, and even a diffèrent version of Something In Your Eyes).
“Love U More (Steps25 Revisited Mix)” should have been the lead single to this whole thing. I’m not being ungrateful for what we got but there would have been a better reception and a bigger buzz(z) - even if it is a 25 year old song!
I think it's only the David Amphlett directed videos he's got the original reels for:
One For Sorrow
Heartbeat
Tragedy
Better Best Forgotten
Say You'll Be Mine
Stomp
It's The Way You Make Me Feel
Unless they're planning to launch The Runner separately with a mix package, we know there's a 7th Heaven Club Mix of that ready to go which makes me think they'll do a digital deluxe. Another digital deluxe option is bundle the HD videos and/or TOTP performances?
I think they may also have a signed standard edition up their sleeve for release week. Lee did a video a few weeks ago on Instagram signing booklets with the blue-tinged, thinner logo and the deluxe editions available on the store have the thicker, silver logo and are signed on the front of the digipak (I also e-mailed the store who confirmed they were signed on the front)

It'll probably have been Beta SP format for all the non-Amphlett videos, which is SD TV broadcast quality.
Some of the imperfections that can be seen on Summer Of Love may be due to YouTube, as their compression is a bit rubbish.
It does sound like it was from that recording session.
It'll probably the booklet of the digipack that's signed.
Silly question - the recorded Steps live in concert in year 2000 at Wembley - was that the Wembley that Westlife just performed at 2 nights ago?
Same town different venue; Steps were at the Arena, Westlife were at the Stadium.
Ah I see. Wembley Stadium can seat up to 90,000 people. Really hoping one day Steps is able to sell tickets that many and perform for one night at Wembley Stadium? Got a tad jealous seeing Westlife doing Wembley - it is such an achievement, isn't it?
I went to see the cinema showing of the Westlife show, and I kept thinking, how incredible would it be for Steps to play a night at Wembley Stadium? They'd put on a killer show!
Dunno if it’s been mentioned but Panic At The Discos new album is also out on the 19th.
Are they still relevant? Any competition there? They’ve had almost as many likes on their tweet in 2 days than Steps have had in over 2 months

So far Stomp, One For Sorrow are truly rescanned from the film they used. And judging by that Platinum Megamix video It's the way you make me feel & Deeper Shade of blue would be too and we'll have them in 4K.
The rest is just AI Upscaled from really good original master. The problem with Summer of love lies in encoding the upscaled video not because of the source. The video doesn't have enough bitrate to maintain the details hence the breaking.
We can be both grateful and giving constructive comment at the same time. Nobody is dismissing the work they're doing. I am thankful for those HD/4K videos because God knows how many troubles they had to go through to get them for us. But if I see a problem I will say it because there's a chance they could fix it now or in future uploads.
