Just Go For It! Just Listen for a Second Time. ;) *by M***Y on April 30, 2023* I was oblivious to most amazing 80's music as a kid but, being born in '80, I now fully appreciate and love so many songs from that near-perfect and talented era.Kim Wilde is one of those singers who's voice is iconic, and her song library is vast with numerous radio friendly and chart-topping hit songs. if you're a fan of her music, this CD collection is a must.Includes the following classics:Kids in AmericaWater on GlassChequered LoveAnother StepYou Keep Me Hangin' OnView from a BridgeThe Second TimeNever Trust A Stranger ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the very best from the New Wave era! *by L***E on January 4, 2004* Back in the early 80's when I was in college , I rented "Kids in America" (yep, there were stores around campus that would rent LPs) and copied it to a cassette tape. It became one of my favorite exercise workout tapes.Now that I'm in my mid-40's, I'm getting back into the exercise habit to combat weight gain. I began searching for my favorite workout musics from the 80's and I was pleased to find KIM WILDE's "The Singles Collection." Except for "Kids in America" and "Chequered Love," I had forgotten or never heard of the other songs on this CD. I had heard of "You Keep Me Hangin' On," "If I Can't Have You," and a few other songs on this CD, but not sung by KIM WILDE.I've got to admit that I had forgotten that KIM WILE has a great singing voice. With a voice like that, it's a surprise that she hasn't had more success in her singing career (at least in the USA).This CD is exactly one-hour in length. When I want to put in a good one-hour cardio workout, this is one of my favorites. It gets my heart rate up to constant 140-155 beats per minute and a smile on my face. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of my guilty pleasures *by S***A on June 29, 2010* Although I can't honestly call Kim Wilde a great, gifted vocalist, still I find this collection pretty fabulous. This may be because I am biased toward UK female pop singers.The only 2 hits I knew when I bought this collection (which spans 1981-1993) are "Kids In America" and "You Keep Me Hangin' On". So, to me, it was like hearing an album of new material. I am assuming that these tracks are arranged in chronological order. The changes in style as the album progresses tell me this. "Kids In America" was a well-known early New Wave hit. It is the first track, and the next 4 retain to some extent the New Wave sound. A change occurs on track 6, "Child Come Away" - a more mid-80's homogenized sound, like 'Til Tuesday's "Voices Carry". By the time you reach track 7, "Love Blonde", the stripped-down New Wave influence is all but gone. The tracks become harder, louder, more lively and varied. This continues through track 11, and includes Kim's huge radio hit, "You Keep Me Hangin' On".Tracks 12 & 13, "You Came" and "Never Trust A Stranger", bring another shift in gears. Both of these very good tracks are in the neo-disco mode of Rick Astley's hits and Donna Summer's "This Time I Know It's For Real", a prevailing style of the late 80's. In the final 4 tracks, which include a cover of Yvonne Elliman's big hit "If I Can't Have You", things mellow out a little. The tracks lean toward a more sophisticated sound, blending early 90's adult contemporary and club sounds with more disco.The production values are good throughout. Kim has a bright and youthful charm; she takes the material seriously; and she handles each successive stylistic change very well, making her an accomplished pop star. I doubt that Madonna, Whitney or Mariah lost any sleep worrying about Kim (or did they?), but still, as pop music goes, this collection works, and Kim deserves most of the credit. ## Frequently Bought Together - Single Collection 1981-1993 - Another Step --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/259744343-single-collection-1981-1993](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/259744343-single-collection-1981-1993) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
