No longer the pop pip-squeaks of the charts, S Club 8 return with a funky new album and some nifty moves to rival Bustin Justin.

Question

Sundown' is a funky little number, are you pleased with it?

Answer

Rochelle: Yeah, it's quite similar to 'One Step Closer' really and it definitely gives you a taste of what our new album is like.

Question

There's some nifty moves in your new video, was it a difficult routine to learn?

Answer

Stacey: It was harder than some of the routines we did for the first album. The songs are more mature on this album, so the dance routines were too. It was definitely trickier to start with!

Question

So how long does it take to pick up the moves usually and did this one take you longer?

Answer

Hannah: It all depends what the song is like really. 'Sundown' is obviously very dance-y and upbeat, so the routine took us a two days to learn. Once we've learned the core moves of the routines though, it doesn't take us long to get it really polished.

Question

Do you have a fave routine or move?

Answer

Stacey: I think we've always enjoyed doing the dance routines, but 'Sundown' is probably our fave so far. It just more funky and cooler.

Question

Is there anyone that inspires you on the dance floor?

Answer

Calvin: Well, our choreographer creates our routines, so we think he's pretty cool. We don't make up the routines ourselves really.
Jay: We all really like Justin Timberlake and his moves though. If we could, we'd add a few JT moves to our routines. But, we did have a little bit of input for the 'Sundown' routine. Our choreographer asked us to think of a move that each of us would like to put into the routine. So there's a little bit of each of us in the 'Sundown' number.

Question

Do you make up names for moves, to help you remember a routine?

Answer

Aaron: Yeah, the last one we did that with was for 'New Direction'. We did this move with our arms which we called 'Poppadom', because the track had an Indian feel about it!

Question

Ok, so who lags behind when learning routines and who's leaps and bounds ahead?

Answer

Frankie: Aaron and Daisy pick up the routines really quickly. They always add their own freestyle bits as well, while the rest of us are concentrating on getting the basic moves right.

Question

So boys, do you ever get teased for doing girly moves?

Answer

Calvin: Usually our choreographer puts in special moves for us. We're not usually doing exactly the same routine, just steps that complement one another.

Question

What's the dodgiest outfit you've ever had to wear for a routine?

Answer

Rochelle: We've never really had to wear anything we're not comfortable with. There is a different theme to each single though. The 'New Direction' routine and video was Bollywood-style, which was good fun and 'Automatic High' was summery. 'Sundown's' theme is all about how we've grown up more now, we wanted to show to everyone that we're not kids anymore. So, we're just wearing what any teenager would wear at a party in our latest video.

Question

Do ever break into a routine when out with friends?

Answer

Stacey: [Giggles] To be honest with you, it's a bit embarrassing for us. I don't think most of us would want to show off like that. When we hang out with friends, we just want to be normal with them.

Question

Ok spill the beans, have any of you ever had any dancing disasters or mis-haps on stage?

Answer

Frankie: [Sheepishly] I've fallen over a couple of times! I've done it twice now during live TV performances, and it's really embarrassing. The last time was on cd:uk, just the other weekend. It was during the actual show, I had to pick myself up and carry on, but I couldn't stop laughing!
