After seven years, the 80s queen is now returning musically to the decade of her greatest successes on her new album. “Closer” will be released on January 31st and is characterized by the mix of new wave, pop and rock with strong melodies that once made Kim Wilde famous.

Recording her 15th album was “really an absolute joy”, enthuses the 64-year-old in the accompanying text to the record. She has received support from another 80s icon. The former Ultravox singer sings a song with Kim Wilde.
