Kids In America (Kim Wilde) / No More Words (Berlin) - Day 46

f you’re old enough to remember bopping around in your shitty car to either of these songs from the early eighties, then maybe you get the same ecstatic feeling I get when I hear them come on the radio. That’s why today’s ‘song’ is a set of songs from two powerhouse females of the eighties, Kim Wilde and Teri Nunn (Berlin).

Kids In America is from 1981, so admittedly I wasn’t doing the driving back then, Karen was (“Fuck you, Mrs. Goetz!”), and No More Words is from a little later on. It was still a Karen time, but also a Cristine era.

We were the rebel youth (or maybe we thought we were!) hanging out at Dance Parc, a building that looked like a castle. Tons of songs flood the memory from this era, but these 2 crunchy new wave pop monsters rise to the top of the crop. Enjoy!
