"This CD mesmerized me from the first song, which is also the best song.
H and Claire have definately come into their own here.My best picks from all their b-sides and singles and album tracks are:All out of love
You're a love song
Another you, another me
Too close to tears
and Nothing at all(I know the song lacks but I still like it)"
H and Claire have done it!

Another Album Another Treat

"These ex-Steps members have stuck close to the Steps sound with songs like "DJ" and "Half a Heart" but have also incorporated more American-ized pop music as illustrated in "Centre of My Heart", "You're a Love Song", and "Too Close to Tears". Of course, they have to carry on their tradition of covering some old songs like "Beauty and the Beast" and the title track "Another You Another Me" written by ABBA's Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus (actually, it's not really a cover, but it was written back in 1985 and ABBA never recorded it). Some of the songs seem really generic American pop, but seeing that pop has faded from the musical scene, this album was very refreshing to listen to."
H&Claire are spectacular

"Former Stpes stars H&Claire (Ian "H" Watkins, and Claire Richards) are incrdible. H and Claire almost carried Steps as it was, when the great group decided to go their own ways it's only natural that some would want to continue in the industry - and they definately are worth it!! Lisa Scott-Lee, and Faye Tozer have made singles, but H&Cliare are the only ones who had any sort of success.
This album is great from start to finish! Dont forget there are some singles with remixes as well as more great songs (I believe they recorded a total of 20)
Highlighs are album title song Another You, Another Me - Half a Heart - All Out of Love - No Turning Back and tons more!!!
If you liked Steps you will LOVE H&Claire"
