There are a few songs that instantly take me way back to my very young childhood, and Kim Wilde's Kids in America is one of them. Specifically, this one reminds me of a local club my parents were members of and frequented often as a family (The Bluehouse Club, in Laindon). I guess they must have played it during one of our visits and that moment has been stuck in my head ever since.
Released way back on the 26th of January 1981, it was the debut single from Kim Wilde, taken from her self-titled first album, and peaked at number 2 in the UK Charts for two weeks
A great track, and another reminder of how great the music was in the 1980s.
