Very First Song What is the very, Very, VERY first song you remember as an young human being? Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking. | |

Probably "Bad boy" by Miami sound machine
https://youtu.be/oQbR6NsqN88 I heard it playing during the opening credits for the movie "3 men and a baby" [Edited 9/21/21 1:42am] | |

Probably the Speed Racer theme song or We Are Soldiers because I went to church all the time and also my grandmother had gospel & sermon records. "Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer. He's a demon on wheels. He's a demon and he's gonna be chasin' after someone" You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

I wouldn't be able to pinpoint one particular song but it was probably one of the following; Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana Gotta Get Away by The Offspring Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden Shy Guy by Diana King This Ain't A Love Song by Bon Jovi My earliest memories of hearing music involve these songs. I guess my mother's boyfriend at the time was into grunge/90s rock. I don't remember him but I remember these songs. I was at a Michael Jackson concert when I was 3 and got to meet Michael Jackson afterwards (I have a photograph of him holding me in his arms for the picture) but the only thing I remember about that is how loud everything was and how packed it was. I don't remember any songs or even meeting him. | |

Must be children's songs or hymns in church. If you take any of this seriously, you're a bigger fool than I am. | |

That's probably the first one we all remember for the first time... Or something like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star... The first song I remember hearing on a record player was my Mom playing the Alvin and the Chipmunk's Christmas album or the original Rudolph The Red-nosed Reindeer recording. .... I will add that my son's first favorite song was the 1960's Batman TV show theme... His first word was also "Ba'Ma'!" when trying to sing the chorus and dancing in his diaper! Not "Mama" or "Dada." Badass! He loved the Da-Da-Da-Da-Da-Da Batman! part!

I don't remember, but the first single I chose for myself, a 45, was the not at all embarrassing Muskrat Love, by the Captain & Tennille. | |

Stevie Wonder? You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

For a pop song it was probably Bad Leroy Brown by Jim Croce or a song off of Cat Stevens Tea For The Tillerman album | |

My grandmother had a fender bender I know it couldn't have been more because the arm as a seat belt trick worked and I didn't go flying under the dashboard. Geesh, the things we survived. Time keeps on slipping into the future...

I have vague memories of being somewhere noisy and crowded. That's about it. My sister is a year older than me but and she barely remembers it either. She says remembers meeting MJ but again, only vaguely. | |

I medelhavet sardiner simmar apu, apu, apu,
apu
Men i mitt hjärta där simmar du apu, apu,
apu, apu
In middle Ocean sardines are swimming,
apu, apu, apu, apu
but in my heart are swimming you, apu, apu,
apu, apu
In MittelMehre Sardinen schwimmen, apu,
apu, apu, apu
aber in mein Herz da schwimmst ja du, apu,
apu, apu, apu
I medelhavski sardinski simmski,
ap
usskidusski, apusskidu
Men i mitt hjärtski där simmski dusski,
apusskidusski, apusskidu
I Norska havet små torskar svömme, apu,
apu, apu, apu
men i min blopump, där plasker du, apu,
apu, apu, apu
I still remember every word
I'm the mistake you wanna make | |
