#6 of 2021

Dear Poptastic Readers,

 

In case you are just joining us, we have been counting down our Top 101 Songs of 2021.

 

#6 in our Top 101 Songs of 2021 is: “To The Beat Of My Heart” by Steps. Click on the name of the song to read about what we wrote about the song in February of this year. We also wrote about the song at the end of November last year as the music video and remixes were released this year. 

 


Written by: Annie Yuill, Ben Taylor, Brian Higgins, Keir MacCullough, Kyle Mackenzie, Lee Voss, Matt Grey, Miranda Cooper, Mollie King, Sarah Thompson, and Uzo Emenike

Produced by: Steve Smith

 

Why: While the song was released at the end of last year, we knew it was great, but it didn't make our Top 21 last year because we felt it didn't represent 2020. It definitely was part of the soundtrack to 2021 because this relentless pop song has one of those choruses that we couldn't stop singing it. We just love it.

 

Watch: The official music video is labelled a lyric video. Steps actually filmed it, but they don't lip sync it, so you almost feel that they didn't know which song the video would be for when they filmed it. Anyway, they all look fab. Check it out ...



 

Live performance: Steps performed the song live on BBC Radio 2 with "At Home" sessions, so there is only audio, not video. Listen here ...
