Vocal Coach Reacts to Steps 'Something In Your Eyes' Royal Variety Performance 2020

[@mrpreston]

I do think Claire consciously takes a backseat in some songs to allow the others a chance to shine. It's no secret that Claire is the powerhouse and I think she is very aware of how that can overshadow everyone else at times. Faye is so consistently great, but I love seeing Lisa steal the show for once. I think her ad-libs at the end are some of her best vocal deliveries ever!

[@apieceofpop424]

Steps really don’t get enough credit. They’re unapologetically pop and know their brand. Their album is easily one of the best of 2020 in terms of pop. It’s not a guilty pleasure at all! They’re so true to themselves, brand and fans there’s no need to be ashamed!

[@chrishannon8187]

I think they sound amazing and im in my 40s

[@highland_persuasion]

Of the 3 female members, claire is the vocalist, Lisa brings the energy and moves the best and Faye is a nice balance between the two.

[@MatgoStyles]

Claire brings the vocals, Lisa brings the energy and Faye serves.

[@ryanjared4263]

if youre wondering about the thing lee has on... thats a harness and theyre usually worn by gay males :D

[@deViIle]

In the 90s we all wore them.

[@Libracherrypie80]

I’m wearing mine now

[@robthorsen3602]

Lisa is my Queen! You can tell she LOVES this song! So EXCITED to see them in concert next year!

[@philollenberg]

I'm certain Lisa has been working hard to strengthen her live vocals recently. It's now really coming thru in her delivery. She sounded shaky for a couple years, and now it feels her support and range are much better.

[@matistysk79]

One of my favorite songs on the new album (I have the pink LP at home) In this performance Lisa surprises really with vocals and performance, she overshines the other girls with her energy. The all seems to have a lot of fun with song. A really ABBA Pop song, no surprise the original is from Sweden :)

[@henrikechers9995]

An ABBA feel - it was originaly a swedish song, from their Melodifestival competition. It did not win and go to the Eurovision. But the original is also great

[@Power_Crystals]

Lisa is a queen, this album Claire has taken a step back and the other girls have more chance to shine

[@LLLLLLLLLucas]

Thanks for reacting to this Georgina! Love STEPS so much! STEPS is our 21st century ABBA!

[@holliexbx5613]

I disagree that they’re a guilty pleasure, I’ll never feel guilty, I think they’re great, it’s just fun, feel good pop music.

[@thegreenmanofnorwich]

I agree. I don't know why adults aren't allowed to have fun.

[@Muswell]

They're brilliant. And, look, they're in their mid-to-late 40s now.. Their Arena Concert was fantastic. Singing LIVE. . Far too many established singers are too afraid to do that now. No auto-tune ever needed for STEPS.

[@Theonewithnoname85]

I find Lisa is ALWAYS the absolute most excitable member & such she never sounds great live however, they released a Night In edition of their current album that had an acoustic live version of “Under My Skin” & Lisa actually sounded really solid 😻😻😻

[@jay_ooh]

YES YES YEEEEEEESSSSS!!!! FINALLY! Thank you for doing this This is actually the version I wanted to see so you're awesome for doing this Thank you thank you!

[@emmadeal2670]

Lisa messaged Georgina to say it was her ad libbing..go Lisa and yes loved your Pink boots. The staging looked great the colours were great. Claire needs more flattering trousers though she looks good in most things but not those tracksuit like things that evening.

[@jrudolf519]

I think we should start a #justiceforLisa campaign. Her solo efforts were/are amazing. 'Electric' shouldve been massive!

[@goawayleavemealone2880]

Yay - now that song's gonna be stuck in my head for days. Lisa is my fave, I'm genuinely happy about this.

[@dna6119]

Steps- always a joy to watch! Love steps forever!

[@harvsjd]

They’re the best group ever even after 20years was a teen when I loved them and still so age 36 😍

[@RareunreleasedMusicss]

Make that 23 years haha

[@teresabenson6087]

No that would be The Beatles that is the best group ever!

[@RareunreleasedMusicss]

It’s called a harness that lee is wearing

[@tomyork4084]

He looked hot as always

[@belindasharon9647]

Lisa sounds amazing and looks amazing.

[@calexismccarrington2175]

lisa's Ad-libs are the best thing that happened in 2020... That is all! Goddess!

[@manueladonnelly7355]

I totally adore your videos! I have been an ABBA fan for over 45 years and a STEPS fan for the last 25 ... I love your honesty and enthusiasm (just a music lover after my own heart)! THANK YOU!

[@evagrahn8781]

This is origanally a song written for the Swedish Melodifestivalen for Jenny Silver. I think 2012

[@MatgoStyles]

The "be another" adlib towards the end is also Lisa. She was on fire during this performance!

[@jay_ooh]

Yeah I was totally going to say that she mistaken it for Claire When it was truly in fact Lisa... Lisa was about doing it in this performance!

[@paulouk83]

Lisa's best vocals ever! "be another" Lisa needs an apology you thought she was Claire... but I bet she will take it!

[@vsstud]

Well, without a doubt Steps vocally means CLAIRE. And that’s it. Faye and H are two other very good vocalists, but Claire is THE VOICE of Steps. Her voice is extraordinary. Amazing performance generally, I am so happy they are back!

[@sleepymoo6130]

I think Steps are so underrated.....they've never done a song I havent loved! Lisa was so pleased to be let out it shone....ok theyre live voices may not be 100 on every single note but they more than make up for that with everythin else they have on offer! I love them and I love this song lol

[@hahatoldyouso]

I love them even more now if that's possible! Their new album is amazing

[@anthonycaggiano476]

Lee is wearing a harness - that’s what that upside down coat hanger-looking thing is ;)

[@valerieselau7384]

I really loved the reaction about Steps' performance at the Royal Variety Performance show is a strongly standout. Far too good for sure!!!

[@septembergaga]

Never heard of them until seeing this video and just listened to their most recent album today! Have a couple new songs in my library

[@shaneswift5806]

Listen to 5578 and other songs of theirs back in the 90s they where the best group around.

[@deanholliday4514]

Be another at the end was by Lisa not Claire

[@wearequickflix]

I love how they got the loudest cheer of the night.

[@davidostrowski679]

Gotta love Lisa. She's always got a lot of stick but she's incredibly talented and doesn't she run a performing arts school in Dubai? The world needs more of this... creativity and talent instead of kids thinking being Tiktok famous is a valid career choice

[@JamieHT]

Yeah it’s Lisa doing the ‘be another’ the end. I love Faye, Lee and Lisa’s styling but not H and Claire’s. There was something else I was going to say but I’ve forgotten it for now. Thanks for the vid! :-)

[@JamieHT]

Oh yeah, never feel guilty for liking the music you like :-)

[@scottbakanumba1heathen313]

Loving the Steps comeback songs.

[@josenolasko8258]

I want to see and hear this version live form Steps, I can't find the video on KZbin. Georgiana thanks for your reactions!!!

[@robpw1990]

Love this. A huge fan of steps always have been. The be another you mention at the end is actually Lisa again :) love your videos X also I love your “mine” :)

[@LeopardThongPrint]

Honestly that was a brilliant reaction video. I have not heard of steps before this newest album came out and with this song was just lovely to watch and listen to. I have never bought a CD really of music when steps released it I just had to get it so I could put it it my car and bop along and sing as I go to work and home :) Hello from Canada I hope one day they come over here to tour!

[@Diegrinch84]

The "beeeee anooooother" is LISA. She's fabulous. I like your videos a lot. Big hug from Monterrey, Mexico.

[@rossasgirl4841]

In the music video yes, but it's clearly Claire holding that long note.

[@matthewwold8112]

that is MY FAVORITE moment of the song - everything comes together and then Lisa belts that out - it's just amazing.

[@bevannon]

I actually thought Claire did an amazing job and her voice was heard and complimented the rest of the band perfectly

[@ThePeterbaldock63]

Never watched you before gorjus , love STEPS and luuuuuv your insight BANGIN !!! Xxxxx

[@Luluknights]

Love steps they sounded amazing live

[@adrianboardman162]

I think Lisa's now a teacher, so she's had quite a lot of practice in commanding a room. Her confidence shines through. My ex is a teacher and he said it's all theatrics and bravado when trying to get, and keep the attention of 30+ unruly teenagers.

[@arron83]

“JUST TELL ME THAT YOU’RE MINE” is clearly live. Claire doesn’t need the pre recorded vocals. Have you heard the acoustic version? The vocals are amazing on that. I love how much you are loving them now though. Claire has to belt out on this chorus and sounds amazing! She takes total lead and shines for me. She doesn’t give as much dance as her vocals need her energy.

[@rosscaw82]

Claire is a queen she always slays the vocals!

[@marklola12]

That what Lee is wearing is actually bondage wear litterally....that metal hoop at the front on his chest...you attach a dog chain/metal chain lead to it haha Surely they knew this :/ though it does not go with the theme of the song lol

[@Pipsicle330]

Never loved you or STEPS more! Can’t wait for next years tour.

[@louiseamyellis1676]

I love. This song ! Still getting that steps vibe !

[@louiseamyellis1676]

They still smash it with the dance moves and singing live !

[@lookstoop8765]

Omg my and my partner really loved watching this but they totally wowed us

Yes! Thank you!

[@mikeithappen]

@@HonestVocalCoach wow thank you again for the unexpected reply 😊🙏

[@johnevans8124]

6:24 that's Lisa on adlib

[@knockshinnoch1950]

Their 20 yrs experience shines through in this performance. They make it appear effortless. It's classic Steps and we love that. Vocals were great. We MUST discuss the costumes! Steps are people "of a certain age" that's right they are all now officially middle aged! Who on earth thought it was a good idea to put Claire in that outfit- it looked like one of those Sumo wrestler suits you can hire crossed with a harlequin outfit. Lee in a S&M harness??? Def for the gay fans that one! Poor old H just looked ridiculous in that unflattering pink jump suit thingy. The poor guy looked like a pile of next weeks washing. They seriously need to rethink the stage costumes, these really detracted from the performance- I just felt so sorry for H throughout the whole routine!

[@TheRealSpiceBoy]

Melanie C also sang live and smashed it!!

[@matt953]

She had pitch correct added to her vocal for the televised performance

[@jaissap7784]

Loving Steps is not a guilty pleasure. It's an innocent pleasure.

[@rosscaw82]

Sorry I don’t know what you meant about Claire’s pre recorded vocals?? I disagree with you there. She doesn’t need pre recorded vocals she always sings live and ALWAYS slays the vocals without Claire the others would be in trouble. I also agree it is nice to hear the others singing but for me Claire is the best singer in the group. I loved their live performances on the night in edition was brilliant!

[@andreweltham4699]

Melanie C did a great performance too!

I LOVE Melanie C's performance,too!!!

I have the feeling I am listening to a new ABBA song. And that's wonderful.

[@fideispears]

Love Lisa she comes off as a very earnest pop star she clearly loves everything about it and that energy helps in performances I think

[@SilverCharmbracelet]

The “be another” near to the end was actually Lisa.

[@Vaikida]

This song was submitted to Melodifestivalen (Swedish Nf for Eurovision) in 2011 and it was rejected glad they took it and released it

[@lukastyp8718]

It wasn’t rejected! It competed, but didn’t win. There’s a difference :))

Fantastic Lisa!!!

[@Rik77]

Lisa and faye had a physical presence which was great. Not sure what was going on with Claire. Her outfit was horrible so I'm wondering if she was uncomfortable in that, along with H. Hard to tell.They need to perform it again to get some confidence. Need more smiling from all of them.

[@AndyHolloway87]

Thanks so much for my reaction

[@richmlvcable]

the warmth of H's voice 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@YosvaniRamos-Ballet]

The “be another it’s Lisa” no Claire

[@EllieDaisy]

I saw them live when I was younger and I remember there wasn’t a lot of actual live singing so they’ve definitely improved 😋 Also Samantha’s mic was under her wig, she’s posted on insta about it x

[@kennyflockhart3224]

That move was from ‘What the future holds’ (I believe 🤣) As always ‘Steps’ knocked it out of the park....Sorry, I felt Lisa was a bit shaky 😬 As always, love your reviews... x

[@Muswell]

That arm-movement is from What the Future Holds

[@FerylMusic]

The chest strap Lee is wearing is a piece of kit used in gay culture. It signifies he’s a DOM rather than sub.

[@FerylMusic]

Even tho he’s straight. The designer of these costumes works with a lot of bondage/S&m themes in his styling. I want him to dress me when I’m back to my pop star body

[@daveyg34]

I don't think Claire does any of the ad lib belts at the end, I think it's Lisa and some Faye too.

[@davejones6064]

Be another!! Was Lisa 😍

[@rebeccahaidry3383]

I love steps they are like Abba. Claire and Faye have the best voices.

[@FerylMusic]

I LOVE this dischord tensions and I would LOVE to know how to write music that matches this clash of vocals… I defo think we need to work together

[@davejones6064]

They do Under my skin on a download its amazing vocals.

[@06kohlert]

Not sure if it’s already been commented - but check out the staging of the original rendition by Jenny Silver ❤️

[@shortsappetite1111]

Some of steps songs on the new album have a bit of an ABBA feel to it. Such a good song and album!

[@lanocty]

Loved it

[@peterwhittem2746]

Do you not think there’s a big backing tracking on the chorus? And they bring their live vocals up for the verses?

[@sarahwithstars]

They are still my most favourite pop group with little mix... And you loving both of them as I do just about makes up for+ cancels out your Mariah Carey obsession I can't stand 🤪😜😘

[@kennyflockhart3224]

Wish I could love your post more... I can’t bear Mariah!

[@neilkoch5481]

i love claire she has always been my favourite but her outfit wasnt the best sadly

[@DRAINPIPE57]

So Abba-esque

[@Jaimcferran]

I saw the mic in Samantha Barks wig at the end of the performance, it was hidden in the center of the lace of the wig, I only saw it when she tilted her head back soooo 🤷‍♂️ and if she was lip syncing you’d think the “recording” would have been perfect (which it wasn’t)

[@fionascott6493]

I must admit, I didn't think she was miming either. Why would she? She is performing live in Frozen every night. Why mime there? I loved that bit. I love Sheridan and loved her in all her tv work especially Cilla, but for me she didn't perform as well as usual. But I do love her and rate her highly as a performer.

[@GY-hd4br]

Omg please do b*witched

[@YosvaniRamos-Ballet]

Also performance here seems to be cut not the full thing

[@thegreenmanofnorwich]

There are two sets of choreography in the song, which might be why you weren't sure

[@Jeroen01987]

The moves you mean @2:20 are from the single what the future holds lol
