Nach dem riesigen Erfolg von “Close” waren die Erwartungen an das siebte Album entsprechend hoch. Love Moves erscheint im Mai 1990. Doch schon die erste Singleauskopplung “It´s Here” brachte nicht den erwarteten Charterfolg. In der Folge wurden zwar noch insgesamt vier Singles ausgekoppelt - aber verschiedene Songs für verschiedene Regionen. Weder die beiden nur in England veröffentlichten Titel noch die restlichen Singles kamen annähernd an die hohen Chartplätze der letzten Singles heran. Kommerziell gesehen war Love Moves eher ein Flop, trotz massiver Promotionunterstützung durch die Plattenfirma. Aus Sicht des Künstlers standen Kim Wilde und ihr Familienteam hunderprozentig zu Love Moves - die Kritiker hatten aber andere Erwartungen und rezensierten das Album auch sehr verschieden. Von hammermäßig gut bis absolut enttäuschend konnte man alles lesen

Love Moves wurde wieder einmal nur in Europa, Australien und Teilen Asiens veröffentlicht. Der amerikanische Markt blieb außen vor - wohl weil der dortige Musikgeschmack nicht unbedingt dem Album entsprach und weil vermutlich auch das Vorgängeralbum “Close” sich nicht ganz so gut verkauft hatte als geplant.

Für den Sammler gibt es zur Schonung seines Geldbeutels nur wenige unterschiedliche Stücke. Die Zentralisierung bei der Produktion der CD auf wenige Presswerke beschert nur zwei CD-Ausgaben für Europa und eine für Japan.

After the huge success of “Close” expactations for the seventh album were high. Love Moves was released in May 1990. The first single “It´s here” was´t successful in charts as expected. There were four more singles released off Love Moves. Different singles for different markets - that was the strategy in 1990. The UK-only releases did´nt well and the except-UK released singles didn´t well too. Both didn´t well in charts as their predecessors. Commercially Love Moves was a flop altough the record company did many promotion for it. Kim Wilde and her family team were convinced about the album - but not the music critics. The range was from hillarous to absolutly disappointing.

Love Moves was only released in Europe, Australia and part of Asia. For some reasons it wasn´t offered to the American market. Perhaps the taste of music differs to the style of Love Moves or sales of “Close” weren´t  good as expected.

For collectors there are less different items (just to save money). There are only two different CD issues for Europe and one for Japan.
