Positive team building post. đ
So what is the first song you remember? Mine is The Beatles, Twist and Shout. I must have been about two and a half, maybe younger. I remember the joy of it.
For some reason they played time warp at my kindy before nap time. I used to dread the end of the song⌠everyone falls down and stops dead
Now itâs one of my favorites, because I have the context of Rocky Horror and adulthood.
Iâm convinced that the kindy was run by people who wanted to torment small children.
FĂźr Elise or the Blue Danube I think, they were in a kidâs fairytale audiobook CD (not tape!) that got very heavy rotation. The Blue Danube used to come at the middle/intermission of a story that always gave me very ominous, anxious feelings and to this day I canât think of it as a magnificent, stately song reminiscent of a big flowing river, just a sense that the baddies are around the corner. I think we had some tapes of The Carpenters (Top of the World was definitely pre-primary).
I donât remember anything earlier aside from your usual kids clapping songs etc.
Summer Holiday by Cliff Richard
He was such a huge star in the 60s and 70s đ
I loved him and followed him into the 80s.
Something by Harry Belafonte or Nana Mouskouri. Now that Iâve googled Harryâs songs, Iâm amazed how many I know, lol.
I used to watch the Nana Mouskouri show every week. She was such a huge tv star, had such a lovely voice and nice personality.
Mull of Kintyre - Paul McCartney
The Play School theme I reckon. I had a Play School record, the only record I ever owned.
U2 - I Still Havenât Found What Iâm Looking For
One thing Iâm very grateful for with my upbringing is that there was a lot of music - the Beatles, Beach Boys, U2, Meatloaf, The Seekers. Weâd go on family drives (to other country towns for their pokie joints), but the drive was always great with the music playing.
Michael Jackson - Thriller
I feel like it was Michael Jackson Bad or maybe The Bangles. I feel like I didnât hear lyrics in songs until almost my 30s. Probably part of why I liked psytrance.
Regrettably un positive. Rolf Harris.
Two little boys âŚ
Six White Boomers
Itâs a nice groove from 1973. Not in the least bit part of any historical importance or music chart but, itâs the earliest I can remember.
omg, I remember this
Do you? Far out.

Canât remember the very first - our house had a lot of music but most of it we made ourselves cos we all could play and us kids were all in the church choir. Maybe Cleo Laine in Porgy & Bess? Mum had the record and played it a lot. Didnât discover âpopâ music until my early teens - The Beatles made a huge impression as did Hermanâs Hermits.
Mrs Brown youâve got a lovely daughter in that voice. Every single time
Singing my song. Literally.
Lol
Hmmmm probably Surfing USA - the beach boys. Or The Ventures - Walk donât run

Canât forget Puff The Magic Dragon by Peter Paul & Mary as a first sing along at primary school.
