Steps or S Club 7
Which was the better Girl/Boy band of the late 90s/early noughties
I like both but much prefer S Club 7s run of singles over Steps.
I do however think Steps had the better overall albums as S Club 7s albums were full of some real corny filler.
As for Jo's voice vs Claire's voice I prefer Jo's myself.
:cool:

Songs like Dont Stop Moving, Natural, Two In A Million and Love Aint Gonna Wait shit all over Steps
Amen to that
The only S Club 7 single I find inferior to any of Steps singles is You're My Number One.
My faves are Never Had a Dream Come True, Don't Stop Movin', Reach & You. God what absolute perfect pop songs.
i always used to think that about s club 7 to be honest.:D well to be fair, it was jo mainly that i thought was fake and putting on a stage persona. i always thought she was a bit rough really, so i wasn't surprise by the post group revelations to be honest. although, both groups had their issues behind the scenes, as it turns out.
i preferred steps and claire's voice too. jo's voice was too shouty for me and she hasn't maintained it over the years. some s club 7 singles were good, but the albums pretty ropey in places.
I prefer Claire's.
Listen to Jo's solo album Relentless.
Claire wishes she could sound that good.
i honestly don't think claire wishes to be anything remotely alike jo.:D its not as if jo managed to maintain that voice over the years and it was hardly a successful solo attempt. jo was undoubtedly the best singer in s club 7, but i think she's remembered for all the wrong reasons now.
Successful or not her voice sounds breathtakingly beautiful on that album.
I think most people have long forgotten the Shilpa Shetty thing.
I love both bands but S club 7 has to be my fave. They were just a great band and a childhood classic. They had some great songs, and I loved the concept of the band, how they had their own TV shows and films. Not alot of bands do that!! So they were multi-talented in that sense. They must of worked so hard in those 5 years doing all of that as well. I would love to see a reunion, I'd actually cry so much!
I do love Steps, and their reunion was fantastic. But I can't say they were the better out of the two. There was something quite cheap about them, and the production on their songs was very cheesy and doesn't stand the test of time.
I'm certain they're getting back together next year. Rachel said they were in talks a few months ago, they tweeted each other about New Year drinks and Tina follows me on Twitter and I asked her whether there's any chance for next year and I got 'wait and see ' so I think they'll do a Steps and have their own show.
in your opinion of course, i personally would never used those words to describe jo in any context.:D
i wouldn't be too sure about that.;-) people have long memories on issues like that and she possibly thought it was best not to chance her arm on another solo record.
I can see an S Club 7 reunion being more successful than the Steps one actually they seem to have more appeal outwith the British Isles.
She was dropped long before the whole Shilpa thing so I am sure it wasn't her choice not to release a second solo album after all its not an easy task for a dropped solo singer to get another deal with a major record label.
i just don't think she was that ambitious and lacked motivation to be honest. its not an easy task to get re-signed after being dropped, but other singers have managed to secure new deals with a bit of determination.
didn't three of them including jo do a nightclub tour in australia a while back? i remember seeing a clip on some breakfast tv show and the vocals were horrendous.:o
claire did pstos prior to the reunion didn't she? this is what i mean, why hasn't jo done anything musically since her solo album? you would have thought she would have a least got herself up to speed enough before she performed on national tv in australia. although, to be fair, all three of them were atrocious from what i can remember.:o
Probaly the simple fact she is skint and can't afford to get any proper training done to her vocal chords. The three probably get paid crap amounts to do those gigs. A full seven member reunion will produce more interest and more money will be involved as they'd likely do arenas instead of nightclubs.
I think Jo's voice will be back to its brilliant best once she has the exposure and means to get it.
i think those nightclub gigs cheapened the brand somewhat, in australia at least. i remember there was a thread of here at the time and most people agreed the performances were bad. of course, a full group reunion would be more commercially viable, but they have a lot of work to do.:D
i disagree there. lots of previous pop stars have returned to the stage over the years and have not sounded that bad. "the voice" have showcased former stars and i would hardly call them minted with vocal coaches at their disposal.:D
