Dagens citat af – Kim Wilde
2. december 2013
I was profoundly affected by music from a very young age As a toddler I used to sit and weep every time Coronation Street came on TV; it had such a sad theme tune that it broke my heart every time.
Music replaced god as the centre of our belief system While some families had church on a Sunday, we had Elvis. Dad [the rock’n’roller Marty Wilde] was always playing the guitar at home, and music made life so much better both materially and spiritually for us.
[Cit. efter en artikel i Guardian, hvor Wilde fortæller lidt om sit liv]
Den nu 53-årige Kim Wilde var et stort navn i firserne. Ikke mindst på grund af sit gennembrudshit “Kids in America”. Siden dalede hendes stjerne noget. Men Wilde er stadigvæk aktiv og har for nylig udsendt det ovenfor afbilledede album. Og hun er en af de firsersangerinder, der godt kunne fortjene at blive trukket lidt frem i lyset igen.
