How many listeners here recall Rita Coolidge's original version from the spring of 1980?! Debbie's version is a bit more kitschier than Rita's...and this is from a Class if 1988 HS grad who lived through the time when Debbie was THE "electric youth" who captivated America w/ her beauty, songwriting skill and craftsmanship!
As a proffessionsl singer myself Debbie.Gibson's.beautiful voice dose'nt.bring out the emotional feel of this song like the soul.uptempo version of DustybSpringField or Rita Coolidge.' s touching style
BS. They are two different singers with totally different styles and interpretations. I would far rather listen to Rita, but that aren't comparable, and neither is "better".
She has been constantly touring and doing performances. She is now touring.
I miss Debbie. I hope she does a huge comeback. The world needs more artists like her.
Debbie is touring now.
really great to have you guys on tours. Tiffany too i hope!!😊❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊❤❤❤
Debbie can STILL sing beautiful and she has always been gorgeous... wow... one of my fav singers of the 80's...
Golden voice. Unique color
The trademark voice of Debbie Gibson is still with her. Even if I close my eyes, I know it's Debbie's voice just by listening.
Still beautiful ❣️❣️❣️😍
she still the best :)

Also done by Rita Coolidge who had a Top 40 hit peaking at # 38 in May of 1980.

Rita Colidge is a Goddess ! However Deborah Gibson arrangement of this song is very good.

Maravilhosaaa!
Dusty Springfield also covered it on her 1978 album It Begins Again, and Thelma Jones not long after...
Awesome...good voice...debbie
I like this perforamance...I have heard the song on her album, but I think she adds more of a pop sense here rather than on the cd
she has matured a lot, even her voice change
i think im in love with deborah
may i request someone to post the original ones ( song of rita coolidge)
I'M IN LOVE...
I love you debby is my dreams
She has Olivia Newton-John voice. Amazing! I love Debbie, and she has the look of a venezuelan singer Delia: beautiful.
❤️💋
すげー amazing！
even though it is not, but this just puts me to mind of someone like Carol King or Melissa Manchester ( which means Deb belongs in that catagory )
She’s still beautiful and sexy!
Your voice still amazing!
I'm a hippie idealist become cynical, I love Deb
Written by the great Peter Allen RIP1992
Peter was so talented and left us way to young.

Original by Rita Collidge

Sh eis so hot.
2003
he died in 1992
A rough start but good ending. IMO
Thats a Peter Allen song...
I like the Rita version, but not bad, and she's a hottie.
I preffer Deborah than Rita!!!
i see she has got the carrie underwood habit of holding both hands around the microphone
Um she was around WAY before "Scary" Underwood.
Kind of a disservice to Rita Coolidge. Sounds like she's trying to sing country. She was great in the day..... Debbie Gibson!!!
no...she is more better!!!!!!
AMEN ;
anong ibig mong sabihin?
I liked Debbie better in Playboy
Simply beautiful! She sings this better than Rita. Deborah was cute and hot back then and now she's turned into a goddess! She looks awesome here!
Any bloke that thinks this is a better vocal than Rita Coolidge is letting their loins rule their head and also possibly needs their ears syringed
She sings this "better" than Rita? Rubbish. They are two different people. This isn't "better".
@@sandramarshall2733 LMAO!!! I agree w you!
DISTINCTIVE VERSION...
hay di talaga maganda...i tried to listen but didnt succeed for this song..
eh....I guess she can sing at least....
she is better than Rita Coolidge
BS. They are two different singers with totally different styles and interpretations. I would far rather listen to Rita, but that aren't comparable, and neither is "better".
