Following the split of Steps in December 2001, the pair formed a duo and released their debut single "DJ" on WEA Records in May 2002. Peaking at #1 on various club charts, the single debuted and peaked on the UK Singles chart at #3, spending one week in the Top 10. Their second single, "Half A Heart" followed in August 2002, peaking and debuting at #8 on the UK Singles chart, though it dropped to #29 in its second week of release and fell from the chart the following week. Their third and final single release, "All Out Of Love / Beauty & The Beast" was released in November 2002 and peaked at #10, spending 3 weeks on the UK Top 40.
Their debut album, "Another You Another Me", followed. However, it peaked at a low #58 in the UK, and WEA Records soon dropped the pair, leading them to go their separate ways in 2003.
For a short period around the time "DJ" was released, H & Claire presented the ITV Saturday Morning children's show SMTV Live.
Two Hearts Beat as One
H & Claire Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause the way I understand it
Love always leaves you empty handed
So many times thought love was here to stay
But I would always end up without it
No sooner than I'd found it
You and I we're holdin' back tho' we both know
That it's time to let go
Suddenly there's no more mystery
Feels like you're the other half of me
We've only just begun
But look what love has done
Our two hearts beat as one
Now I'm not afraid to take a chance
'Cause in your eyes there's no mistakin'
All the love that lies in waiting
Now I'm so sure of what I feel inside
And it makes no sense to fight it
'Cause you know love when you find it
You and I we're holdin' back tho' we both know
That it's time to let go
Suddenly there's no more mystery
Feels like you're the other half of me
We've only just begun
But look what love has done
Our two hearts beat as one
Ain't it funny now
You walk into the room anytime
Go from lost to found
You're the solid ground in my life
And for now it's enough just to know
That you're here by my side
By my side
Suddenly there's no more mystery
Feels like you're the other half of me
We've only just begun
But look what love has done
Our two hearts beat as one
The lyrics to H & Claire's "Two Hearts Beat as One" explore the feelings of someone who has given up hope for love after experiencing disappointment and heartbreak.

However, the song takes a positive turn when the singer meets someone new and realizes that they have found the missing piece that completes them. They are no longer afraid to take a chance on love and are confident in their feelings for this new person. The two are holding back from fully committing to each other, but they both know that it's time to let go and allow their hearts to beat as one.
Overall, the lyrics are about finding hope and love after going through difficult times. It celebrates the transformative power of a new relationship and encourages listeners to let go of past hurts and open themselves up to the love that might be waiting for them.
