Music videos

The video for "When I Said Goodbye" was a black-and-white video shot in Rome, Italy. It featured shots of the members singing solemnly. In contrast, the video for the latino-flavoured "Summer Of Love" featured brightly-coloured clothes and energetic dancing. It also portrayed Steps and their dancers as "good steps" (very colorful and dressed innocently) and "bad steps" (dressed in leather, with black makeup, very raunchy looking) in the end good steps chase bad steps away with their amazing dancing.
