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?'

Duran Duran - Please please tell me now followed by Banarama. Mum saved up all her lager ring pulls before this to get me a Blondie album - Breaking Glass I think it was - black & white cover I remember.

First album I bought was Hot Chocolate by Hot Chocolate. I loved them and listened to it on a loop Grin
First single I think was 'The Wombling Song' or possibly 'Merry Christmas everybody' by Slade

Giving away my age here I think Grin

I remember the first single my DS bought was Whigfield 'Saturday Night' - there's only so many times you can hear that song without losing your mind Grin
