The rock band members Liam and Maxim also shared a tribute for Keith on Instagram, writing: 'Firestarter is 30 years old... I can remember so clearly every moment writing this tune.
'Keef [Keith] coming into the studio and hearing it for the first time, jumping off the walls and then grabbing the mic to record his first ever vocal, it was totally spontaneous the way it happened, same with the video.
'People refused to play it on the radio and support it at first. It just found its own way, own momentum, then exploded from nowhere.
'So yeah, we are proud of this tune and proud of it for Keef. Liam H and M x.'
Gail previously discussed her relationship with Keith in an interview with Louis Theroux.
She said: 'Keith was the love of my life, I absolutely loved him, I miss him.
'I was single and we went out and we did not stop laughing for the entire evening and then practically that was us together, almost for two years.

Asked by Louis if he suffered with poor mental health, Gail continued: 'He had a few wobbles but by the end of it, he was swimming every day, we were going to the gym and both of us, our mental health was just so fantastic.

'Of course everyone is going to be extremely happy if you're in the Maldives, we were so lucky and then when we got back I said, "Right, I'm going to go back to work and you go back to work".
'He just didn't get his mind back into things properly. And he was going that way and I was like, we need to keep our minds positive and it just didn't work that way.
'He was on a downer, I was trying to work my hardest, so it was a shame.'
Acknowledging they both had their issues, she said: 'I always thought there was going to be that moment when we are going to have bad times at different times and it kind of worked that way unfortunately.'
Gail previously revealed she 'never expected' the news of her ex-boyfriend's death, admitting that she was gobsmacked when she learned he had died.
She spoke candidly to Lorraine Kelly about overcoming her own struggles with mental health, explaining she's finally 'in a good place.'
Keith was found dead in his home in Essex, with toxicology reports finding that the star had cocaine, alcohol and codeine in his system.
Following an inquest into his death, a coroner recorded an open verdict after ruling that there was insufficient evidence to rule he took his own life or that it was an accident.
Speaking to Lorraine about his passing, Gail admitted news of his death still came as a huge shock, 19 years after their split.
She said: 'It's horrible. I was completely gobsmacked to be honest with you, Such a loss he was a great guy. I could never have expected that in a million years.'
