Inspired by the B*witched thread which has made me feel bloody old what was the first song you purchased?

Mine was The Tamperer ft Maya - Feel It

'What's she gonna look like with a chimney on her?'

Can you feel it? - The Jackson 5. I very proudly waved it - the record - in front of my older brother and his mates, they nearly peed themselves laughing, especially as I was all Confused.

On cassette. That I listened to on my personal stereo.

HappydaysArehere · 10/07/2017 21:57

Living Doll, Cliff Richard! My brother and I played it again and again and again.

TheHiphopopotamus · 10/07/2017 21:57

Every Loser Wins- Nick Berry. It was in a bargain bin in Forbouys.

Prior (and post tbh) to that I had to tape songs that I liked off the radio, making sure I carefully cut any hint of the dj's voice off the beginning and the end.
