Maybe For Sure

"Maybe for Sure" is the fifth and final single lifted from Deborah Harry's third solo album Def, Dumb and Blonde.

Song information

The single which was produced by Mike Chapman became her lowest charting single in the UK, peaking outside the Top 75 at #89 and it subsequently fell off the chart after just two weeks, which made it the lowest single of Harry's to chart on the UK Singles Chart. The single was not released in the US.

"Maybe for Sure" is an anthem-like pop song with an uplifting chorus and many fans consider it a highlight on the Def, Dumb and Blonde album. The single was unsuccessful due to lack of record company promotion. However, Harry was touring the UK around the time of its release as a single.

The song itself is a reworked version of the song Angel's Song from the 1983 animated film Rock & Rule which was written by Debbie Harry and Chris Stein. A remixed version of the track called the "Tunguska Event 7" mix" was later featured on the US charity album Just Say Da (Volume IV Of Just Say Yes).
