Has anyone seen the Steps tour video? And they call Belle & Sebastian twee??
I loved Peter Waterman's sour grapes over Hear'Say, calling them a karaoke group. "I like bands with a bit of attitude," he said, defensively adding "you might think Steps do not have that, but they have all got their own opinions."
Yeah, right.

Steps are consistent...but theyre too consistent. Whereas I always reckon S Club are a step away from making a really terrific pop single. Some might say "Reach" was it, but not I.
Can't imagine why Waterman's moaning: as always happens, the war against this year's manufactured piffle-pop alchemises last year's anathema into unimpeachable pop classicism. That Channel 5 thing wasn't exactly Pilgeresque in its hard-questions journalism, but it did remind you how cretinously reactionary MM/NME reader-think could be, in ref. SAW, and also how great and much-missed eg Mel and Kim were/are.

Faye's lush, Lisa's fit - but there ain't no party like an S Club party !

But actually S Club are still (after 3 albums!) at that cant-tell-em- apart stage. Which is quite nice - it makes them more of a unit I suppose.

Erm, there are reasons, but I'm not going to go into them in public.
Mind you S Club 7 aren't *that* bad, but too many of them have been in Grange Hill.
And if Lisa Steps's brothers ever get a single released I am renouncing my fan-dom. As I have done with Geri over the 'Raining Men' incident. (And not even the saturation media coverage.)

Tom (Aged 8) "Steps are best because they sometimes wear devil costumes" (Could he be confusing them with Killing Joke? ;))
Anna (Aged 6) " S Club 7 are best. One of their songs sounds Egyptian"
Does this help?
