Kids in America - Kim Wilde

In 1981, Kim Wilde debuted with the single 'Kids in America'. It was a big hit all over Europe, but in the USA it took almost a year for it to be released. When it was released, it did reach the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at number 25.

This promotional 7" single was released in the USA to help along radio promotion. This rare single features the track on both sides, so as to avoid DJ's playing the B-side by mistake. It was quite extraordinary to find this single in pristine condition almost 30 years after its release.

My collection: 7" single no. 4849
Found: eBay.com, received May 11, 2010
Cost: $7
Tracks: 'Kids in America' / 'Kids in America'
