I bought Out Of The Blue, Electric Youth ,Anything Is Possible and Hold An Old Friends Hand by Tiffany
for $20.00. As for Britney I did not like her music after Oooops I did it again. Thought Deb's music
was much more mature and sophisticated than hers. Sad

agree

Also that Deb's actually wrote/produced her own material and played piano at a young age, which is rare in the music industry and unheard of in pop music today.

Since the Atlantic City performances have the some of the fans in their later 20's/30s  bringing their kids and also older people going to the concerts (around 80), I wonder what's the reactions?

I read that one 4 year old danced, though I figure some slightly older or teens might be different (ie generation gap, more into Jonas Brothers or whoever's popular today than the music from their parents' generation).



I wonder if there were some 18 to 25 in the audience? More likely few...

I am 36 and have been a fan of Deborah's since '88 when I lived in Hong Kong. It was hard to get her singles back then but luckily I had good friends in the UK that use to buy them and ship them over. When I returned to the UK I was lucky enough to see Deborah in Grease along with the gorgeous Craig McLachlan. Deborah was fantastic and unfortunately that's the only time I've see her Live.

Maybe I'm not up to date with today's music (although I am a massive fan of Sugababes) but that is because they are just never around long enough or that the music is just rubbish.

Long live Deborah's music, she's amazing.

Well... everything from music, film, tv, etc, has a niche


I've done surveys... though the reasons of negative replies are more likely because  they're posted on the wrong boards...ironically I'd be very out-of-place if the official Deb board is set up. (Well, I actually prefer interacting with actual people I mostly post online to post random thoughts and also post stuff I don't normally talk about)

I'm in my late 30's. Has been a Deb fan since 1987. Attended her concert & album promo when she came to Malaysia in 91, 93 & 95. Have her albums under "Debbie" in casette format.

Recently, these 2 months I've been trying to get Deb's albums in CD format, singles and it is fruitfull. Even the hard to find London Grease, I got a friend from States to get it for me. One way or the other I'm re-falling in love with all her songs under "Debbie".

And lastly, Deborah album is superb.......  Smiley

I am proud to say I am 35!! For me it started when I was 12/13....I was right at the right age, and I loved when I would see Deb on Mtv/Vh1/Nighttracks/Nick Rocks.....it was so cool! Deborah on the radio was the other effect I got.......when I noticed the slip around the Anything Is Possible time, I was so disappointed...I knew something was wrong.....but anyway, back to the hard core of the topic....I still play Gibson's music, every album and every song I have! I am not ashamed of it....I still try to get some to notice her.....I got one friend who thought she only did two albums, when he heard Anything Is Possible, he loved it....so after that re-introduction, I basically bought him 3 of her cds for birthdays and christmas....I got him Body Mind Soul, he loves Shock Your Mama.....He now has Anything Is Possible, he fell in love with This So Called Miracle....then I gave him the Deborah Cd as a gift...he loves Moon Child, but the thing is, he is a year older than I am.  But Over all, you are gonna see most Gibson fans range from 29-40 since most of us grew up in that period of the 1980's.

Sometimes I've thought that I should've been born 10 years earlier, though if I had I'd be a far different person. (actually I might listen to Deb since she wouldn't be a "let down" like certain celebs I have liked until I either lost respect or don't have much interest due to film roles or music that doesn't click to my attention.)

If you had been born in the late 60s or early 70s then you would have seen what it was like when Deborah was at her peak of popularity.  That was a great time.
