“This song is pure magic and you can’t help but smile when it comes on,” Claire continued.

“If it wasn’t for the wonderful legacy of Stock Aitken Waterman and PWL – The Hit Factory, Steps would almost certainly not exist – so Pete Waterman this one is for you.

“Hope you all enjoy!”

The new clip is a complete 180 from Claire’s previous cover – The Carpenters’ Rainy Days and Mondays.

During the #Claireaoke series, the star’s also covered Wilson Phillips’ Hold On, Take That’s Said It All, Anastacia’s I’m Outta Love, Celine Dion’s I Surrender, Laura Branigan’s Gloria, Zedd’s Clarity, and her Steps audition song, River Deep, Mountain High
