Stereoblonde release 'Sweetest of all darlings'
Stereoblonde’s new single 'Sweetest of all darlings' is a homage to Kim Wilde: 'The joy, the pain, the fun, the tears, we shared a lot over the years. So many loved ones gone for good, but you never let me down'. This quote is taken from the second verse of the song and underlines the deep connection between the two women.
The track was created at Chapel Studios in London. Guitars were performed by Stereoblonde's guitarist Michael Scheuber and Kim's former guitarist and writing partner Steve Byrd. Johnny 'Rhino' Edwards - who used to be in Kim's band in the Eighties and is now a member of Status Quo - played bass and Roxanne Wilde, Kim's sister, sang backing vocals. Steven Williams, a percussionist in Kim's band in the Eighties, played drums and produced the track.
At the age of thirteen Sabrina saw a photo of Kim in a German teen magazine called Bravo. Sabrina was instantely fascinated by Kim’s style, looks, charisma, her unique voice and her songs. A few months later Sabrina attended her very first Kim Wilde concert without even knowing she would write a song for Kim’s 50th birthday more that 2 decades later. Many concerts followed until the two blondes got to know each personally and kept in touch ever since. Over the years they formed a deep bond and friendship. 'Without Kim I would never became a singer myself. She was and still is such an inspiration. I grew up with her and her songs!', says Sabrina. Sabrina dedicates 'Sweetest of all Darlings' not only to Kim but also to all other women and their best girlfriends because 'nothing makes us girls happier than a soulmate that blindly understands and shares all ups and downs.'
