Kim Wilde - Say You Really Want Me (MCA)

Gone are the days when Kim's brother Ricky Wilde would conjure up twee, frivolous songs for his sister to sing. Now she's moved up-market, gone all "sophisticated" and taken a fancy to clumsy disco dirges that don't mean anything at all. Kim sings with about as much passion as Hilda Ogden (sob!) doing the hoovering, while some bloke programmes the computer with a flimsy drumbeat that could just about raise a shuffle on the dancefloor. (Ro Newton, Smash Hits, July 29, 1987)

Good old Kim! She's a bit of a girl and I like girls with a bit of spike in their stilettos! However goddess-like Kim is though, the record is a bit pony and trap. I wish she'd find another good song like "View From A Bridge" or something. (Nancy Culp, Record Mirror, August 8, 1987)
