Kim’s Kids
Back in 1981, ‘Kids In America’ launched budding young singer Kim Wilde onto the world stage.
A hit around the world, the song’s irresistible mix of Blondie-styled new wave energy and catchy lyrics has endured to this day – which helps explain the constant demand for the song in TV and film.
Only recently, ‘Kids In America’ was used in Australian TV show The Real Dirty Dancing.
In the meantime, the track features as part of a major reissue programme for Kim’s three RAK Records-era albums in January 2020,in advance of a major tour next year to celebrate her 60th birthday!
