Debbie Gibson – Shock Your Mama
Debbie Gibson – Shock Your Mama (1993)
Lydie Callier
Shock Your Mama is a bold and energetic pop track by American singer-songwriter Debbie Gibson, released on March 22, 1993, as the second single from her fourth studio album, Body, Mind, Soul. Co-written and co-produced by Gibson alongside Carl Sturken and Evan Rogers, the song marked a departure from her earlier teen pop image, embracing a more mature and edgy sound. The accompanying music video, directed by Lydie Callier, features Gibson attending a formal family dinner with her upper-crust boyfriend, only to disrupt the event with provocative behavior and spirited dancing, culminating in her performing atop the dinner table. The single achieved moderate success, peaking at number 74 on the UK Singles Chart, and was notably banned in South Korea due to its sexually suggestive lyrics.
