Back in 1981 I used to go past Kim Wilde's house on my way to work. It was only 20 miles out of my way !

I'm 37 and I still want to be Kim Wilde here. I was meant to grow out of this by the end of '81.

i have seen her live, in '88 at aintree race course. she was the support act for michael jacksons british leg of his BAD tour. they were both great.

europwe in the 80s was really closed down, just to cross to spain you needed a passport and visa, then to get to france another and so on, not like today, and each country was totally diff, but at the same time it had same spirit, and bands like brit bands were just devored by other bands elsewhere, specially punk goth bands

1981 - was a good year for the charts! - Love The Passions, and Kim Wilde and Madness too!! - You wouldn't get that today!

I probably saw this on the television that night. Thirty years ago. A bit depressing when I think about it!

@drpoxy The injunction affected things later though right?
