00:04We're the kids in America
00:07Everybody lives
00:081981 wurde sie mit Kids in America weltbekannt und zum neuen Teenie-Idol der Pop-Szene.
00:15Damals war die Engländerin erst 21 Jahre.
00:18Kim Wilde eroberte insbesondere mit diesem Hit die jungen Fans.
00:22Die Rezept fürs Image lautete Rock and Pop, Spaß, Frische und Energie.
00:27Und dazwischen immer coole Blicke.
00:30Und gerade mit diesen coolen Blicken kamen die Fans nicht zurecht.
00:34Kim Wilde machte ein Jahr Pause.
00:36Jetzt ist sie wieder da mit ihrer neuesten Platte Jesus and Dares,
00:40was so viel heißt wie Streiche und Verrücktheiten.
00:43Nun komponiert und schreibt sie ihre Songs auch selbst.
00:46Wir hatten die Gelegenheit, sie während ihrer Deutschland-Tour Ende März in Frankfurt und München zu treffen.
00:56You're presented as a young, sexy, English girl.
01:00Do you like this treatment or would you like it better in another way?
01:06Um, I don't know, I enjoy, I enjoy that part of it.
01:09I don't take it that seriously.
01:11I think if you take it seriously then it gets kind of boring.
01:14But I don't really.
01:15And I think the audience realise that.
01:18And they're not sort of, when they're down there, they're not sort of like leering at me.
01:22They're sort of smiling at me.
01:23And they've been great audiences.
01:26Hamburg.
01:29The deepest side of us is crying.
01:34I know that he waited for me.
01:41I know that he waited there.
01:47Will I get for the man or no?
01:52I thought I heard him calling you.
02:05You started your outfits with secondhand clothes.
02:09Then you changed a bit to a kind of comic and fantasy world.
02:13And now you've changed back.
02:14Why?
02:15I got bored, you know, with poncing about and sort of all that designer stuff.
02:21I just didn't feel at ease with it after a while.
02:24It was good fun, you know, for a week or two.
02:26But after that I started feeling very at odds with it.
02:29You know, I didn't relate to it anymore.
02:31And I found that people kept wanting me to relate to it all the time.
02:34So I just had to sort of throw it away and be me again, you know.
02:38Because I'm not very good at pretending to be something else.
02:42Now silence fills my room.
02:48I feel my heart stop beating.
02:54Cause inside the shadows, there is dead.
03:01He's waiting on for finally dead.
03:04When I fell, I knew that he waited for me
03:12I knew that he waited there
03:24For me
03:41For me
04:03What do you want to express with your new kind and style of music?
04:09I don't know if it's particularly new. I just like rock and roll music and I like it to be
04:15as rocky as possible.
04:18My writing is a bit different. My writing is kind of all styles but when I'm performing I like performing
04:23rock and roll.
04:24It's very communicative and rock and roll is a really good way for communicating with an audience.
04:31For me anyway, I was brought up on rock and roll.
04:37Come on, let's go tonight. Got a brand new way. Celebrate it all.
04:44Got these dreams alone.
04:45Baby, it's alright if you're feeling great. Dedicated all.
04:52Got these dreams alone.
04:57Oh, I dreamt that Lenny is crying in the makeup.
05:04Nobody starts, nobody cares.
05:06Oh, just get me out of here. It's not the thing. My mind's been faking off.
05:15Just push me out again. It's so you take it round. I ain't enough.
05:26Come on, let's go tonight. Got a brand new way. Celebrate it all.
05:32Got these dreams alone.
05:34Baby, it's alright if you're feeling great. Dedicated all.
05:41Got these dreams alone.
06:03Come on, let's go tonight. We got a brand new way. Celebrate it all.
06:09Got these dreams alone.
06:12Got these dreams alone.
06:12Baby, it's alright if you're feeling great. Dedicated all.
06:18Got these dreams alone. Just embrace your love.
06:23Got these dreams alone.
06:28You're working together with your family.
06:32How do they influence you in your music or yourself?
06:36They're sort of there. You know, I mean, my mum's quite involved in the business side,
06:40which doesn't really interest me very much.
06:42But it's quite good because she lets me know what's going on.
06:46And Marty and Ricky are writing obviously and doing their stuff.
06:50I mean, we just sort of get on with it together in our own way.
06:53But we leave each other alone. You know, and we work very well together. Most of the time.
07:02Alright, let's.
07:06That's great. Thank you.
07:10Don't be nervous. I'll be alright.
07:14With new sound, a new band and many Eigencompositionen will Kim Wilde
07:18wieder ganz rauf in the charts.
07:20Das wird nicht leicht sein.
07:22Die Hallen waren während der Deutschland Tour nicht immer gut besucht.
07:25Fällig überzeugt von Kim Wilde sind überwiegend die ganz jungen Fans.
07:30Why are you here?
07:32Because Kim Wilde is great to find.
07:34Why?
07:36The songs are great, how she looks and how she sings.
07:39Nice to see she looks.
07:42And especially the song Kids in America is great.
07:46And the second time.
07:47And I think Dancing in the Dark.
07:49How old are you?
07:50I'm 12.
07:52I'm all 12.
07:53But I'm already a fan of 11 or 1,5 years old.
07:58I'm a fan of this year.
08:01But now she's here and I'm happy to be here.
08:04I'm also.
08:05And now she's here and she's here.
08:06Now she's here to go.
08:07Yeah.
08:08Thanks.
08:10Okay.
08:11Tschüss.
08:11Tschüss.
