the first single I bought was You Can Call Me Al by Paul Simon.

 

That is one of my favorite songs!

I never used to buy cds much, I used to just listen to the the radio and record songs I liked on tapes. First single I think I did end up buying was Macy Gray - I try

Return of the Mack by the delightful Mark Morrison :)

[Mac]

Mine, too, was Message in a Bottle by The Police

[Peacefield]

I think the first single I bought with my own money was the 45 of 'We Are the World' in '85. This fact is a bit embarassing though because seriously, weren't there better singles out to buy that year?! I still have it though, yet haven't thrown it on my turntable in years.

I think mine was Just A Little Bit by Gina G, all the way back in 1996. Eeeek.

 

Gosh this takes me back

 

Rat Rapping by Roland Rat

 

 

:lol: I have very vague memories of a rat in a car when I think of this song.

 

The first song I ever owned was Call Me by Blondie. I played the tape over and over (and over) when I was about 7. Technically, I stole it from my Dad's car for about 3 months before he made me give it back

 

It's still one of my favourite songs to this day

[Lucybird]

I doubt anyone will remember this. I can't remember what the track was but it was by a band called North and South.

 

The first album I think was Robbie Williams Life Through A Lens.

The first 45 single I ever bought with my own money was Blockbuster by the Sweet.

 

First LP Album was The Planet Suite by BBC Philharmonic Orchestra. My musical tastes were eclectic.

[Nicola Booth]

U2, Mysterious Ways

[Lynn]

I think mine was Take on Me ~ Aha

 

Those were the days

[Scarlette]

Something from the Grease soundtrack...

I must say it is very disconcerting to read posts on this thread about people's first purchases being albums that were out when I was well into my college years.

 

Sure sign of getting old :)

 

And also embarrassing that their first albums being CD's and not vinyl at all.

 

Mine was "The Wild One" Suzi Quatro on 45.

Must have been about 1977.

[Echo]

I don't remember the first cassette I bought for myself, but the first CD I bought was Soundgarden's Superunknown. It's still one of my favorites.
