Steps’ chart-topping brand of pure pop might have “one foot in the past”, but right now they’re looking to the future for a “very exciting” new collaboration.

The group is set to release Heartbreak In This City as the fourth single from the LP later this month (Feb), and they’ve tapped former Seduction star Michelle Visage to lend her voice to the tune.

“To say that I’m honoured to record a song with pop icons Steps is the understatement of the year,” says Michelle.

“With the state of the world today, we all need music that makes us feel good and trust me when I tell you, Heartbreak In This City is an absolute BOP!”

 “I LOVE Heartbreak In This City and we thought Michelle would be PERFECT to take it to the next level,” gushes band member H.

“I am the world’s #1 Drag Race superfan and BESIDE myself she’s joined us on the song!” 

Lisa adds: “Her voice fit the song perfectly and we’re proud she’s now our unofficial sixth member!”

The track, co-written by classic Steps collaborator Karl Twigg and Stella Attar, became a firm favourite among fans following the release of the group’s sixth album

Steps’ latest album, ‘What The Future Holds’, was preceded by singles What The Future Holds and Something In Your Eyes.

In our review of the album, Retro Pop called ‘What The Future Holds‘ “a cohesive collection that plays to each of the members’ strengths and showcases the versatility of Steps as Britain’s premier pop group… undoubtedly their most confident, polished release yet.”

‘What The Future Holds’ is available on CD, pink vinyl, picture disc vinyl, and individual member cassettes.

In an exclusive interview with Retro Pop, classic Steps collaborators Topham and Twigg revealed they’ve reunited and pitched a number of tracks to the group for their forthcoming seventh album.

“We’ve written a new track, which we penned about three months ago now, and it is f**king amazing. It’s probably one of the best songs we’ve ever written,” teased Karl Twigg.

“In fact, there’s about three that we’ve penned that are just stone-cold monster hits.”

Despite the pair’s celebrated history with the group, Karl insists they’ve “avoided the whole nostalgia thing” on the new tracks, but described the songs as “bangers”.
