Deborah Gibson

(Cover photo courtesy of RayGarciaPhotography.com) As a young 80s fan in the late 90s and early 00s, one of the artists whose work spoke to me was Debbie Gibson. Ballads like “Foolish Beat” and “Lost In Your Eyes”, upbeat tracks like “Shake Your Love” and “Electric Youth”…These were songs that inspired me and cheered me up during some rough times. In 2014, I met Ms. Gibson at Chiller Theatre, and she was as sweet and lovely as her music is. I mentioned that I wanted to interview her, and I was finally able to do so in 2016. Since Debbie has been busy with various projects, including an upcoming Hallmark Channel TV movie called Summer Of Dreams, we did the interview via e-mail. I hope you all enjoy her thoughts on topics ranging from “Only In My Dreams” to Summer Of Dreams. Say hello to Debbie Gibson!
