Debbie is great and was Great....she was popular but could have been even so much more....she should have been bigger than Madonna....I've never understood what happened.
It’s because all of the people that were at Atlantic records who supported her and put the full force of Atlantic behind her in terms of promotion and radio all left when Atlantic changed hands in 1990 right before the record came out and all of the new people that were in charge of the label didn’t like her and wanted things to go in more of a darker more adult Direction. That’s why the album after this “Different Time” Wasn’t released and instead she was sent back into the studio with Rogers and Sturken to “create urban hits” as the label put it… And of course the result was “body mind soul” which was released in 1992
debbie wrote the lyrics herself and wrote the music on a casio keyboard in her basement,when she was 16,ill give this woman all the credit in the world
The fact that she wanted to break out of the squeaky clean girl image but Madonna was crossing the line.... 😂🤣Although I liked Madonna back then, I'm glad Deborah Gibson and Tiffany didn't cross those boundaries. They keep their images classy. Madonna pushed boundaries and constantly gave the gossip tabloids something to talk about. But, it looked good and it definitely worked for her.
Gibson said it best!!!! Those critics DID NOT listen to the album! They just figured she was a goody goody who did not put a lot of hard work into her music...it is a shame because this album could have gone so much bigger had critics LISTENED to it and Atlantic helped her!!
I have a lot of respect for Debbie,she was real,talented,knew how to write her own music,and was herself and she did not let her celebrity go to her head.She was a real class act.Too bad in 2013,you have the Miley Cyrus's of the world who feels she has to be slutty just to sell records...Debbie as in her 40's is still a classy lady!
Class is getting hard to come by today..Today's generation does not have a clue in what class is.Debbie had lots of it,and she could sing her butt off and she never downed other artists.These so called artists of today is disgusting,Nicki Minaj,Miley Cyrus are god awful degrading no class singers.They are not artists they are a show for the media to talk about.Music in my opinion is getting worse and worse that is why I listen to 70,80's music because Debbie Gibson,and others back in the day put in 100% in their work.
Jason Hayward its because Debbie was raised normal. Despite having top 5 hits she still did chores had Sunday dinners after church (She's Catholic) hung out with friends (her childhood friends are still her friends) and gradded High school (Sanford L. Calhoun, class of 1988) like a normal girl. Her family kept (and keeps) her grounded
That is so true.But lets get real too on today's music..It has gotten watered down,it is no longer taking the time to make the music good,its putting it out as quickly to make a hit,no rhythm,just annoying sounds
your comment is seven years old so you probably won’t even see this but don’t you fucking dare ever call a woman a slut just because her image is sexual. I’ve had the absolute pleasure of meeting and working with Miley before during my time in Nashville and she’s one of the most kind hearted hard-working women you will ever fucking meet. Her image is raw and sexual and she doesn’t have any fucks to give for anyone else’s opinion. She’s a fucking boss and she’s an amazing singer songwriter
Holy crap, she's realy singing! Hey Briteney, Debbie is realy singing! Hey, Christina and all you other "singers" that say you can perform and that you sing at the same time... bull crap. Debbie is doing that here and you can here it. Now that was a genuine and perfect performance. The only young performer I can think of these days that actualy sings and not lip sync is Tayler Swift.
i so like the way u think because i tell people that when they pop off with comments like u commented on....i will often say until you sell over million albums then you can say something u r cool
To all who comment on her cliches, when you write as many number 1's for three album's as Debbie Gibson, you can make as many comments as you like, until then, keep them to yourself.
Vote DWTS Monday team Sonbursr I know team vote Gibson team sonberstein of song bird miss Gibson rock watch vote miss Deborah Gibson all way deb forever watch her watch you will amazed than Deborah gibson
this album went gold but didnt do as good as the first 2 album. This is the time during her parents divorce and when Atlantic Records was trying to change Deb into being my scandolus and sexual about her look.
Where you writing albums when you were 16? I think she was writing what she felt and what appealed to 14 year olds, which is why it seems lame now that we are adults. But, if you made a number one album when you were 16 let me know. I wouuld love to hear it.
And Debbie could be covered in mud...and i still think she is the HOTTEST most talented artist of all time...(2nd only to THE FATHER, SON, HOLY SPIRIT) 🔥🔥🔥✝️🔥🔥🔥
I have always really liked Arsenio Hall, and have always been one of his defenders... but he really seemed to "have it in" for Debbie in this interview... trying to make her seem silly and belittling her somewhat with his line of questioning... I can just feel that vibe with him here. He isn't open, jovial and enthusiastic, as he is with so many of his guests. There's something brewing underneath the surface with Arsenio here.....
Actually, I think he was advocating for Debbie in a subtle way. He was giving her a way to express her feelings towards the critics and the record label executives who thought she should be a "goody goody two shoes." He wanted her to be herself and show that. He teased her for her "sexy" pic. Much the same way a big brother would tease his sister. It was cute. He was good here. But he also wanted to put emphasis on the fact she had grown up. Arsenio was not always jovial and cutting up in interviews on the show. He had moments when he was dead serious and even had some stuff to say in place of the nightly monologues. I watched the show religiously. He never belittled Debbie or any other woman.

I Love Debbie; such a genuine talented artist.….Just saw her show a month ago. 👍❤️
When I am having a bad day - or if I am "down", I always watch this video. HER strength gives ME strength and it has for years.
Janet Jackson's dancers and choreography. Loves it
this is the first time I have seen this clip and I liked it very much. I was a big fan of her's during my teenage years, and still a fan to day
🤚✝️🤚
She´s just great!!!
I loved it..this song sounds great live.
Thanks for posting
First time I have seen this
🤚✝️🤚
Class exemplified!
Debbie is great and was Great....she was popular but could have been even so much more....she should have been bigger than Madonna....I've never understood what happened.
this was Debbies best single ever BUT her stardom dryed out at that time just when i started to love her....sad

DEBBIE GIBSON SO GREAT !!!
Thank you for posting these clips, i live in the uk and i have never seen some of these clips, but i have been a fan since Electric Youth.
I thank you for posting this lost performance..means alot!
debbie wrote the lyrics herself and wrote the music on a casio keyboard in her basement,when she was 16,ill give this woman all the credit in the world

👏👏👏👏👏👏
i think her anything is possible album is defiantly my fav album by her that and out of the blue
Wow, live!
It is so great
She says everything so clearly and she speaks intelectually :)
Gibson said it best!!!! Those critics DID NOT listen to the album! They just figured she was a goody goody who did not put a lot of hard work into her music...it is a shame because this album could have gone so much bigger had critics LISTENED to it and Atlantic helped her!!
It's Oviously Debbie Gibson!!! She writes, performs, produces, and sings without lip-syncing :)
I bought this CD from the cutout bin in 1991... Yeah, it didn't sell well, but it was really good.
Mario M Actually, this album and song went gold worldwide...
Luis Wetzel yes, this song hit about #25 on the charts
The album went gold, but the single did not.
The cd sucked. I only liked this song and "It must have been my boy".
It's a decent album, but it was too experimental and all over the place to become a bestseller.
I would like to see the episode where Club Mtv debuted this and Down Town Julie Brown talks about our little debbie all grown up
I loved the video she did for this song , but i can't find it now.
You can hear her Long Island accent when they are discussing Madonna...cute:)
I have a lot of respect for Debbie,she was real,talented,knew how to write her own music,and was herself and she did not let her celebrity go to her head.She was a real class act.Too bad in 2013,you have the Miley Cyrus's of the world who feels she has to be slutty just to sell records...Debbie as in her 40's is still a classy lady!
debbie is great! Love her! :)

I wished I had an out fit like that
Holy crap, she's realy singing! Hey Briteney, Debbie is realy singing! Hey, Christina and all you other "singers" that say you can perform and that you sing at the same time... bull crap.

u r cool
She coulda been the Britney of the 90s.
Justin So True!!!!!
She was before Britney's time. Debbie had her most success in the late 80's and early 90's. Britney came around in 1999.
Britney was the Britney of the 90s. Britney came out swinging in 1998.
Yeah, she is from Brooklyn.
To all who comment on her cliches, when you write as many number 1's for three album's as Debbie Gibson, you can make as many comments as you like, until then, keep them to yourself.
I like how she speaks her mind and saids she tries to stay away from the sexual image........It Works for Madonna, but it doesn't work for me.
Emily Spears but then posed for playboy ?
She posed for Playboy in 2005. At that time her mainstream career was virtually over.

Yet another victim of the powers....so sad....yet, she survived....read between her lines
Did they abuse her like gaga,katy Perry and britney?
@@Honeycomblife , they tried to but she took a break from the scene and headed toward a different direction which was Broadway.
this album went gold but didnt do as good as the first 2 album. This is the time during her parents divorce and when Atlantic Records was trying to change Deb into being my scandolus and sexual about her look.
Thanks for posting this!! I have the entire "Electric Youth" performance from Arsenio if you're interested.
She reminds me of Lady Gaga.
Where you writing albums when you were 16? I think she was writing what she felt and what appealed to 14 year olds, which is why it seems lame now that we are adults. But, if you made a number one album when you were 16 let me know. I wouuld love to hear it.
Joel O'Brien
I couldn't said it much better
I love the choreography but the velvet pirate outfit and Carol Channing haircut was a disaster.
It was pretty bad. Ill adviced.
But underneath it all...it was still Debbie...and she is still in there somewhere today...and pray that Tiger lets her TRUE LIGHT SHINE 🔥🔥🔥✝️🔥🔥🔥
And Debbie could be covered in mud...and i still think she is the HOTTEST most talented artist of all time...(2nd only to THE FATHER, SON, HOLY SPIRIT) 🔥🔥🔥✝️🔥🔥🔥
Debbie Gibson vs. Britney Spears, who is the better pop princess?
Birtney Spears??? :oD
The inspiration of Britney Spears!

I 100% agree. It all looks so forced.

Forced like u
