Their biggest selling record came in August 2000, when True Steppers collaborated with Dane Bowers and Victoria Beckham on "Out of Your Mind". There was a wave of publicity for this single and Victoria involved her husband, David Beckham, for the in-store record signings. There was a chart battle with Spiller and Sophie Ellis-Bextor, whose summer dance track "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" was released in the same week. True Steppers were leading in the midweek published chart, but Spiller and Ellis-Bextor had overtaken them by Saturday. Spiller was announced as No. 1 on the Sunday, with True Steppers at No. 2.{{cite book | first= David | last= Roberts | year= 2006 | title= British Hit Singles & Albums | edition= 19th | publisher= Guinness World Records Limited | location= London | isbn= 1-904994-10-5 | page= 520}} They later released another single, this time with former East 17 singer Brian Harvey and American R&B singer Donell Jones, called "True Step Tonight" which reached number 25, and an album named True Stepping.
