It's time to begin now count it in, 5, 6, 7, 8...
C'mon, let's admit it - Steps were THE biggest guilty pop pleasure of the 90s, and we secretly mourned when they split in 2001.
The band - Ian 'H' Watkins, Lee Evans, Lisa Scott-Lee, Faye Tozer and Claire Richards - eventually reformed, released a new album and toured earlier this year, but now Claire has announced a SOLO album.
It's fair to say that Claire is the one with the best set of pipes, right? So this is a well-deserved feat for the 40-year-old star, who has also lost a whopping six stone and looks AMAZING.
Almost 22 years (yep, it's been that long) since the band formed, Claire told The Sun Online: “I don’t feel this is going to take anything away from Steps, it’s very much an entity in itself.
“No single one of us is ever going to be bigger than Steps as a whole, I don’t think."
Talking about her bandmates, she continued: “We’ve been through our ups and downs and our difficulties but I don’t think that’s there any more.
“And we’re all old enough and ugly enough to realise now that the only way to make it work is to be honest and be up front about everything."
Steps are best known for their Wotsits level cheesy hits including covers of The Bee Gees' Tragedy and Kylie Minogue's Better The Devil You Know (don't pretend you don't know all the moves). And who can forget One for Sorrow and Deeper Shade of Blue?
We don't know if Claire's new single ‘On My Own’ will be any good when it's released on Monday, but we do know this is the perfect excuse for some 90s nostalgia.
So excuse us while we go and put our 90s pop playlist on for the rest of the day.
