Summer of Love is a summer song! When ... ...Summer it was released back in 2000. I love how this song has a latino feel to it. . I also like the fact how the lyrics have some Spanish words such as 'fiesta' and 'la vida loca' in them. I like how the lyrics tell a story. I think it's good how each member of the band have a go at singing a line or two on this song , instead of leaving the singing to Claire or H like their usual songs.

One thing I didn't like was the fact that When I Said Goodbye was a double A Side with Summer of Love. I felt that When I said Goodbye was the 'lead' single , whereas Summer Of Love was just a song added to make it a double A-Side. Although I found that Summer Of Love was in fact a much better and more Steps-sounding song compared to When I Said Goodbye (WISG). Overall a great Summer Song!
...ordinary family people too.
Summer Of Love, stands out as it is area dance track, very latino , all about fiesta's and holiday romances.
This is one of the more catchy ones and proves how versatile they can be from ballads to the latest craze in Dance music,latino.
The dance is fairly easy too for this one, which will please all the younger stepalikes.
They really can not do any wrong and will continue to amaze us . ...

Advantages: The sound quality is excellent and the cdrom and songs even better Disadvantages: The price is a bit expensive at £3.99
This single is a definate must for all steps fans around the world! It shows their ability to sing ballads (when I said goodbye) and not just songs that we fans like to dance around to at clubs or in our bedrooms but also they have put Summer of Love on the single as a double A side, which appeals to those fans who don't like the ballads and just like to dance. When I said goodbye is off the steps album 'Steptacular' and in my opinion is one of the best songs on the album. It is a slow, beautiful ballad sang by Claire and H. Summer of Love is a new song which cannot be found on any current steps album and it brings up the tempo of the single. This is a latin/pop/dance song and would have anyone up on their feet dancing in no time.
This is most definately Steps' best single to date and I totally reccommend any Steps fans to buy it ...
Advantages: Dance steps, lyrics and one video Disadvantages: Not the other video!
When I Said Goodbye is incredibly classy in every way. The song is gorgeous, especially when they have performed it live, the video is gorgeous and the still shot from the video used as the cover to this single is even better! Summer Of Love is a brilliant summer pop tune -great fun and incredibly catchy! The remix of Summer Of Love is OK, nothing special, although remixes never are. On the inside sleeve, there is a photo of them performing Summer Of Love on the fantastic Steptacular tour that toured the UK in May and June. The enhanced section basically has the gorgeous video for When I Said Goodbye but the Summer Of Love GAP-alike video is nowhere to be seen unfortunately. There is also a short (daft) cartoon of the 'Steptoons' - animations of Steps that were shown on the tour. There is also a page with a 'Steps tour biography ...
The new duo single by Steps is a great mix of two very different songs. The double release contains an upbeat dance track, Summer Of Love, and contrasts it against a slow ballad which is my favourite off the album, called When I Said Goodbye. The two are both great songs in their own right, and on the same single they work well together. The songs are showing that Steps have a more mature side and that they can put together songs that are a bit more mature than the others, demonstrating how their sound has developed. This is a great single! ...
