Deeper Shade of Blue

About Deeper Shade of Blue

"Deeper Shade of Blue" is a song by British group Steps, released as the band's ninth single. The song is an uptempo pop song about the darker side of life and an attempt to break free. It was the fifth song to be released from the group's second album Steptacular. The song was initially recorded by Tina Cousins but, aside from a few promotional 12" records, her version remains unreleased. The single entered the UK Singles Chart at number four and spent one more week in the top ten before falling down the charts. After a total of nine weeks, the shortest for any Steps single, the song left the top 75. The first two verses are performed by H and Claire, respectively, whilst all 5 members perform the middle 8. The chorus features all five voices. In October 2011 following the reformation of the band, they performed the track on Lorraine Kelly and Loose Women. The song was included on Steps's compilation albums Gold: Greatest Hits (2001), The Last Dance (2002), and The Ultimate Collection (2011). On September 1, 2015, Claire Richards premiered a new stripped backed piano recording of the track via her social media pages. more »

If only you read my mind  You'd see I was hurt inside  A thousand times I've told myself it's over (it's over)  But the story has just begun  And darling whats done is done  It's time to change and leave the past behind    Why should we know all the answers  Or how the story ends (so baby)    Let's take a chance on a happy ending  (Let's) turn the page and stop pretending  The past can stop a heart from mending  It's time to let go 'cos baby you know   Some things are better best forgotten    And baby we can't pretend   In time the scars will mend  Please believe me theres a chance  let's take it (let's take it)  And maybe at last we'll find  That love should be true not blind  You can't decieve a heart that's open wide    (And) even now it's not to late  To change the story's end (so baby)    Let's take a chance on a happy ending  (Let's) turn the page and stop pretending  The past can stop a heart from mending  It's time to let go 'cos baby you know   Some things are better best forgotten    The story has just begun   Darlin' what's done is done  It's time to leave the past behind
