Kim Wilde answers questions by her fans (Friday 18th May 2012) :
A few weeks ago, the official Kim Wilde fan site gave a link for fans who wished to ask Kim questions at the occasion of her venue at the Danish Esbjerg Rock festival on Saturday 2nd June 2012. Here are some of her answers on video recorded recently in Luzern (Switzerland) :
Dossenheim sur Zinsel (France-Saturday 12th May 2012) :
Fantastic pictures from Mr Noel (thanks a lot) :
Kim Wilde was back in France for a retro music festival. She started singing at 11h15 pm with Chequered love, View from a bridge then made a special dedicace to France :
As Snapshots wasn’t released in France, she performed more of her hits than songs from the last album with exceptions for songs like Spirit in the sky, A little respect or wonderful life. Kim performed for nearly 1h30.
Spirit in the sky :
One major drawback was the accoustic because of the local : the sound was particularly awfull and sometimes we could hardly here the singers performing during that event.
Rose d’or Festival (Switzerland-Thursday 10th May 2012) :
Kim was invited at the swiss TV celebration called the rose d’or where she sang a medley of you came & Kids in America.
Select (30th Anniversary) (Thursday 10th May 2012) :
It’s been 30 years since my favourite Kim Wilde album has been released with smash hits Cambodia (n°1 in France for 2 months) and View from a bridge. The Japanese edition included the extra track Bitter is better. All tracks from this album were written by her brother Ricky & father Marty Wilde.
