The final album on which Marty Wilde had co-writer credits. The album is widely perceived by fans and critics (and Kim herself) as Wilde's most well-balanced, with many kinds of Pop represented: Dance, Ballad, Rock and Midtempo.
The album's lead Single was "Hey Mister Heartache", featuring backing vocals from Junior Giscombe – but its success was dwarfed by the follow-up Single, "You Came", which hit the Top 10 in many countries and just missed the US Top 40.
"Never Trust a Stranger" and "Four Letter Word" also reached the UK Top 10, although a fifth Single, "Love in the Natural Way", was less successful. Attention for the album was bolstered by Kim's support slot on Michael Jackson's European tour.
"Close" reached the Top 10 in the UK, almost all Scandinavian countries, Austria and Germany and went on to become Wilde's biggest selling album, being certified Platinum in the UK. In Australia, the album was less successful, peaking at #82 on the ARIA albums chart.

The first single from this album, "Cambodia", was released in November 1981 and signalled a different sound from the Wilde camp, with an Electronic and Synth sound, different from the Rock sound of her first album. The songs were again written by Marty and Ricky Wilde, and produced by Ricky Wilde. The lyrics of the songs were similar to the first album: the second single, "View from a Bridge", and the album track "Wendy Sadd" seemed to be about suicide, "Chaos at the Airport" described a nightmare about flying and "Ego" was quite the opposite of a love song. "Can You Come Over" was recorded at the Wilde's home.
The album topped the charts in a host of European countries and reached number 8 in Australia, although it did not surpass the success of debut album.

The album attempted to capitalize on the success of Wilde's previous album, "Close" (1988), but although a top 10 album in Scandinavian countries, it failed to sell as strongly as its predecessor. This was the first album by Wilde to yield no top 40 Hit Singles in the UK; "Time", the second Single from the album, was the lowest charting Single in her discography at that time.
Some critics noted the MOR feel of the album and the use of similar production sounds throughout. It includes guests Jaki Graham, who contributed backing vocals, and Deon Estus, playing bass guitar. Wilde herself believed: "It was a very strong album, and it was very disappointing that it didn't do well. But it didn't really come as too much of a big surprise, because my career before then had always been very up and down. So it wasn't a complete shock… but it was very disappointing."
Five Singles in total were released across Europe, with "It's Here", the album's lead Single, becoming a top 20 hit in Scandinavian countries and "Can't Get Enough" making a top 20 entry and long run on the French Singles Chart. The album was not released in North America.
