So i'm talking about Debbie Gibson's jam from the out of the blue cd vs Mimi's jam from the emancipation of....

These 2 songs have the same sentiment and they are both from Long Island! Which one do you prefer and why? Yes, i'm aware that they sound nothing alike but it's just for shits n' giggles.

I love both but I have to go with Debbie! She is so underated. This chick was writing, singing producing and playing piano in her teens.

surrrrre she was

CinisterCee said:

you don't believe that she was??

dancerella said:

i believe she was, and i think "follish beat" credits her as sole producer aswell?

Anyway, debbies cool, i like the album "body mind and soul" best.

dancerella said:

I just doubt the record label's generosity in authorizing that much creative control over a teen pop record.

With that song, she was credited as the youngest person to write, perform and produce a number one song. The music press made a big deal of it at the time, and (as a teenager myself), I was all, "Oh, my gosh! She's the coolestest!"

CinisterCee said:

There was a producer on that album aswell. And he did most of it, but i beleive she wrote it all though, and that geek image really seemed like her too

I feel you on that because when I was a kid and she came out and I was an apsiring dancer/choreographer at the time I was truly inspired by her. Here was this kid that was only a few years older than making doing her own thing. I still think she rocks!

thesexofit said:

Of course you would prefer her body mind and soul cd as it came out in the 90's! Anyway, you still haven't said which song you prefer. Stick to the debate damn it!

CinisterCee said:

Maybe back the day they were cooler about stuff like that but not so much now?

dancerella said:

dont know the other song? Who is mimi?

dancerella said:

I can't say that I was inspired, but yeah, as a teenager, I was cuckoo for her.

thesexofit said:

mimi aka mariah!

RipHer2Shreds said:

back then i was all about debbie gibson and paula abdul. that woman could dance her ass off!

dancerella said:

oh, well shake it off then. Iam sure i have heard mariah on the commerical clubs i go to. All her shit sounds identical now.

thesexofit said:

ok fine i'll accept that!

"Shake Your Love" SUUUUUCKS!!!! Although I really don't care for Mariah's "Shake It Off" Either. I would rather listen 100 times then listen to "Shake Your Love" once.

Shake ur love is in my head now

CinisterCee said:

She played it pretty safe, so I think they would.

thesexofit said:

Good it's a great song!

VinnyM27 said:

but the real question is did mariah bite off debbie gibson??

Shake Your Love. I don't like Mariah's new stuff

I don't know, it has such a foolish beat.
