Album Notes & Community Reviews

The English pop singer's critical and commercial peak delivered a highly polished array of dance-pop and synthpop anthems. Produced by her brother Ricky Wilde, the record spawned massive international hit singles like 'You Came' and 'Never Trust a Stranger'. The sleek, radio-ready production values perfectly captured the sophisti-pop and adult contemporary landscape that dominated the late-eighties European charts.
