Both songs were remixed for their single release, with the official titles of the Q-Street Mix (also called the Soundtrade Mix) and The Pardon Mix; which is similar to the album version but with a hard ending instead of a fade out.
Chart performance
Released on 28 May 2001, the single debuted and peaked at number four on the UK Singles Chart. It spent 10 weeks in the top 75. Despite its chart success, it ended up as one of Steps' lowest-selling singles.
Music video
The concept was notable for the fact that the videos for the two songs linked together. The video for "Here And Now" features the group making their way through a maze, until they reach the centre and perform the song's dance routine. At the end of the song, the centre of the maze morphs into a spaceship which then flies off.
The video for "You'll Be Sorry" takes place aboard the spaceship. A competition was held through the official Steps website for fans to be filmed and appear in the video for "You'll Be Sorry", which was recorded in Acton, London. The thirty or so competition winners were filmed dancing around the centre stage whilst Steps performed their dance routine to the chorus of the song. However none of the footage made it to the final cut, disappointing the competition winners.
