This song is a family affair. It was written for 20-year-old Kim Wilde by her Dad, 1960s rock and roll idol Marty Wilde, and her teenage brother, Ricky.

“I’ve been singing since I was four”, says Kim, who took it up as a career after leaving art college last year.

Ricky, 19, has also inherited his father’s musical touch. When he left school, he joined his Dad’s band, playing keyboards and guitar for about two years.
