Even though the song is about a sad situation, the music is upbeat and makes you want to dance. Steps, the band, performs with lots of energy and fun dance moves, which can make you feel happy even if the words are about something sad. The chorus of the song is very memorable, and you might find yourself singing along to it.

Let's go to Rome

Hi everyone! My name is Grace, and I am 8 years old. I want to tell you about my amazing trip to Rome! Do you know the band Steps? They are super famous, and my family loves their music. We decided to visit a place in Rome because it was in one of their music videos!

First, we went to the Spanish Steps. They are so beautiful and have lots of stairs. I counted them, and there are 135 steps! We took so many pictures and I felt like a star. The view from the top is so cool, you can see lots of buildings and people. I felt like I was in the Steps music video too! We also had yummy gelato after climbing all those steps.

After visiting the Spanish Steps, we walked around Rome and saw many amazing things like the Colosseum and the Trevi Fountain. I threw a coin in the fountain and made a wish. I wished to come back to Rome one day.

Rome is such a fun place to visit, and I am so happy I could see the Spanish Steps just like in the Steps video. If you love adventure and music, you should visit Rome too!

It's super fun to dance to, and I always feel happy when I listen to it. Did you know that Steps started in 1997? That's a long time ago! There are five members in the band: Claire, Faye, H, Lee, and Lisa. They all sing and dance, and they wear really cool outfits when they perform.
