What’s the first song you remember?

[BlueThursday]

Inspired by me misreading another thread!

what’s the first song you remember?

mine was Relax by Frankie. I was only about 18 months but loved it for being so catchy

Tom Dooley by Lonnie Donegan, 1958 when I was 3 or 4.

Me too, apparently I had a dance routine as well

Gosh I remember seasons in the sun too!! The first song that popped into my recall was leaving on a jet plane and next Jeremiah
was a bullfrog. I had older siblings. And seasons in the sun was so sad for me because it was played at the funeral of a child killed by a school bus.

And rain drops keep falling on my head. This is hole I have to be careful not to fall down! I’ve googled these songs just now and I was 4 or 5.

Kylie Minogue "I Should Be So Lucky" ❤️❤️ xx

Yellow Submarine

Seven little girls sitting on the back seat with Fred. 🙄
Sounds a bit pervy now - although a totally innocent little dirty - but as a 5 year old I used to sing this to my long departed grandfather but always sang " Sitting on the back seat with Thread". 🤣

Ditty not Dirty - flaming autocorrect!

You're Gorgeous by Babybird!

Bright Eyes - Art Garfunkel

Any Dream Will Do - Jason Donovan

“Pretty woman” by Roy Orbison. I assumed the song was about my Mum. I still think it though Mum died in 2017, aged 80 and 5/6ths: seven years ago on 29 April 2017. RIP Mum 💐🙏💐🙏💐

I remember loads of songs from my early childhood, I was born late '79.

Super trooper - Abba
Karma Chameleon- Boy George (I remember dancing to it at a neighbors party)
Elvis's back catalogue (mum was obsessed and all his songs rolled into one when I was that age)
Michael Jackson - Billie Jean

Probably 'Hold Your Head Up', by Argent. It was in the charts about this time 52 years ago. I was 15 months old.

My Mum used to sit on the sofa with my sister and me on each side of her and sing:
'
'Love and marriage
Love and marriage
Go together like a horse and carriage
This I tell tell you, brother,
You can't have one without the other.'

Frank Sinatra song

Super Trooper by ABBA.

Mull of Kintyre by Wings and the Grease sound track

I don't remember radio music being a thing when I was little: it was radio comedy, talk,news or The Archers.
I remember my mum singing along to Mario Lanza, and playing classical music.
The first 'pop' song I remember hearing was "Welcome home" by Peters and Lee. My Dad tracked it down and played it to my mum when she came home from hospital with my sibling - having had a difficult birth and some issues with my sibling immediately after that.

Tiger Feet by Mud, in 1974. God, I’m ancient.

Long haired lover from Liverpool by Jimmy Osmond.

Long haired lover from liverpool by jimmy osmond. I would have been about 5.
It turned out to be prophetic as my first husband was a scouser who had long hair when we first met!

Another one who was obsessed with Under The Moon of Love.

Also Save All Your Kisses for Me (Brotherhood of Man) and Sailing by Rod Stewart - I would have been about 4 when they all came out.

I don't recall hearing music from the radio when I was very young,but having 2 older brothers,I think my earliest memories of music must be from hearing them playing records. I can remember 'Tears of a clown' by Smokey Robinson being played repeatedly. I would have been about 5/6. And 'In the air' (think that was what it was called) by Thunderclap Newman at around the same time.

She Wears Red Feathers And a Hula Hula Skirt by Guy Mitchell

I remember whirling round the living room ro its crazy rhythms when I was very young. My Dad laughed his head off every time.

Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty

i remember it was on the radio all the time. I absolutely loved the saxophone intro.

still love it now.
