I never bought a song, I was born in the spotify era
First Spotify album or song you followed or downloaded.
I think it was stairway to heaven
thatās my young man, now good bye
the bloody beast
Mine was7ā vinyl Phil Collins āyou canāt hurry loveā . He wasnāt wrong Iām still bloody waiting !!
Cd single The Hanson brothers āI will come to youā
It was crazy popular in Sweden and they where Christians the song was about Jesus and that was about the only modern/popular music we where allowed to listen to.
Later I converted to The Offspring and bough American as the first full CD.
Still got all of The Offsprings albums on CD, they are useless but I just canāt throw them away.
My very first, i believe it was a cd, was Jewel- Pieces Of You. . I can remember feeling like a big kid for having my very first cd, of course my mom picked it out. I listened to it until i stepped my game up to The Slim Shady LP
Yes The Hanson brothers did Mmmbop too and I will come to you was the next single they did.
I like the older the Offspring songs a little better but the newer ones are awesome too
Mine was a 45. Yāall know what a 45 is? Had to turn the speed up on my record player.
The Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde"
recorded by the British rhythm and blues singer Georgie Fame. 1967ish.
The flip side was Beware of the Dog.
I can imagine.
Very proud to say that the first cassette I ever purchased was Run-DMC āRaising Hellā I had to hide it from my mom. Still great today!
First CD was Led Zeppelin IV, quickly followed by every Led Zeppelin CD!
First vinyl was a single, Duran Duran "Wild Boys"
Back then, we didnāt buy songs by the āoneā! Unless it was a 45 rpm with a non-hit on side B. My first album? Grade 7, 1983, Men at Workās āCargoā. My favourite song was āItās a Mistakeā. Iām just realizing now that based on the title alone, the song really does deserve a spot on the soundtrack of my life!
Interestingly, front man Colin Hay has put out some more acoustic, folky things in the last decade or so. His song āBeautiful Worldā has the lyrics āā¦when youāve given up the drink, and those nasty cigarettesā¦ you leave the party early, but leave with no regretsā¦ā
Sugar Sugar by the Archies, on the back of a Super Sugar Crisp cereal box. Really.
First album, Santana Abraxas
First 8 track, David Bowie and the Spiders from Mars
First cassette - mix tapes I made at home
First CD - Eurthymics Sweet Dreams
First DVD - Kevin Costner, The Postman. Special guest star, Tom Petty!
omgā¦ the mix tapeā¦ did you rewind these with a bic pen to avoid draining the 8 batteries in the walkman?
Prince - Letās Go Crazy on 45 w/Erotic City B-Side. Wish I still had it.
This was well before the Walkman! I held the little cassette box up in front of the record player speaker. Could only get one speaker at a time, so some of the truly stereo songs had these weird gapsā¦ I styled myself as such a DJ!
thatās funny youāve just reminded me of listening to my rock music on a mono player and when it got to the guitar solo there was nothing there
I canāt rememberā¦ But I do remember discovering an album in my stepfathers vinyl and playing it over and over again, I was ten and it was Led Zep2ā¦
