Positive team building post. š
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 songā¦ everyone falls down and stops dead
Now itās one of my favorites, because I have the context of Rocky Horror and adulthood.
Iām convinced that the kindy was run by people who wanted to torment small children.

The Play School theme I reckon. I had a Play School record, the only record I ever owned.

Something by Harry Belafonte or Nana Mouskouri. Now that Iāve googled Harryās songs, Iām 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.

FĆ¼r Elise or the Blue Danube I think, they were in a kidās 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 canāt 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 donāt remember anything earlier aside from your usual kids clapping songs etc.

U2 - I Still Havenāt Found What Iām Looking For
One thing Iām very grateful for with my upbringing is that there was a lot of music - the Beatles, Beach Boys, U2, Meatloaf, The Seekers. Weād 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
dumblederp@aussie.zone āØ11ā© āØhoursā© ago
I feel like it was Michael Jackson Bad or maybe The Bangles. I feel like I didnāt hear lyrics in songs until almost my 30s. Probably part of why I liked psytrance.

Itās a nice groove from 1973. Not in the least bit part of any historical importance or music chart but, itās the earliest I can remember.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone āØ10ā© āØhoursā© ago
omg, I remember this
useless_modern_god@aussie.zone āØ10ā© āØhoursā© ago

Canāt 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. Didnāt discover āpopā music until my early teens - The Beatles made a huge impression as did Hermanās Hermits.

Mrs Brown youāve got a lovely daughter in that voice. Every single time

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

Oh that was close to being there first full song I could play on piano
