“What the Future Holds” by Steps
As illustrated in its bridge, this is in fact a love song. And with that, it appears that the narrator is caught in a dilemma whereas he is in love but afraid to take the necessary leap of faith due to past experiences. Thus he wants to overcome such imprisoning thoughts. But simultaneously, there is also a fear of “What the future holds”, as tomorrow itself is unpredictable. And as such, he is basically entreating his partner to let him know that everything is going to be alright.
This is the title track for Steps’ sixth-studio album. Steps is a band from the UK that originally formed back in the late 1990s.
They first teased this song (and the album) on 7 September 2020. And BMG officially released the track a couple of days later, on 9 September.
“What the Future Holds” was penned by popular Australian songstress Sia alongside American musician Greg Kurstin. And the track was produced by Barry Stone and Julian Gingell.
