There are few things better than a Debbie Gibson video.
Especially when she's in a café, using the teacups and saucers to play the Accumulatower round from Accumulate!!
Remember, folks, foolish beats can quickly add up.

"The gift" is a mature counterpart of "Lost in your eyes", E♭ major makes it serious and determined and dignified and full of love.
#PerfectPop28 must move on, a last star to follow for the rest of the month. But who else rose to fame in early '88, and sung a Eurovision winner?

... Debbie did a bit more work with Shane Richie, on gunge-tastic game show "Run the Risk".
"I loved dressing as a white wolf," Debbie remembered with a smile. Never had #DebbieGibson pegged as a #furry. #PerfectPop28

In 1993, #DebbieGibson came over to London and played Sandy in "Grease" on the West End stage.
While here, Debbie did a week of "Win Lose or Draw" with Shane Richie. All those years playing #Pictionary on tour were brilliant preparation.
For one lunchtime only, #PerfectPop28 brings back Waistcoat Wednesday!

The bubble burst for #DebbieGibson in 1991.
"Anything is Possible" cried the album name: "Sales are impossible!" shouted stores. Was our #perfectpop28 campaign over?
From the album, "Another brick falls", Just when you have one piece of life's puzzle figured out, something else goes wrong, and nothing is ever quite all in sync at one time.

Part 2 of the Satisfying Read on #DebbieGibson for #perfectpop28.
An interview with Phillip Schofield, an unexpected working relationship with Shane Richie, a brief dalliance with the furries, and most recently a Christmas album that's well worth your time.

#PerfectPop28 and #DebbieGibson, a match made in G-major.
"Lost in your eyes" was the classy work Debbie had always promised. A love song oozing with satisfied passion and faithful love. Debbie’s clear voice gets free rein, and the piano ballad is most wonderfully satisfying.
"Number one for several eons when it's eventually released", suggested Smash Hits. Sadly not.

#PerfectPop28 continues #DebbieGibson week.
I never liked "Shake your love", an impossibly poppy and peppey and shiny and chirpy song. Though we didn't know it at the time, Debbie was capable of far deeper work.
But "Shake your love" has become her signature hit, so here's a performance from #TOTP USA.

#PerfectPop28 moves to the fourth performer.
Can I do a week on #DebbieGibson? *Of course* there's a week on Debbie Gibson.
Here's a biography for 1988 and 1989, the Hit Years. The rest of her career follows on Saturday...
