Peacefield Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 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.

Nicola Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucybird Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vodkafan Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 The first 45 single I ever bought with my own money was Blockbuster by the Sweet.

corina Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 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 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
