First cd

[helicase]

Speaking of past music choices, what was your first cd (or record)?

Mine? Ace of base. Yes...be jealous.

[ruby412]

Yikes. I'm pretty sure my first was Snoop Dogg's Doggystyle.

[monkeybabe]

My first cassette was Billy Ray Cyrus, my favorite song on it was Achey Breaky Heart. Don't judge, I was like... 5.

CD was probably BSB.

[Deleted]

My first was a cassette and New Kids on the Block.

[katie]

My first cassette tape, CDs were not invented yet, was Michael Jackson's "Off the wall" and "Thriller". I got them both the same day.

Do you like Dr Dre, Ruby?

[helicase]

Ack! How did I forget cassettes? Maybe the wine I'm drinking?

Me too! My sister and I had a dance to The Sign. It was awesome.

[mikehoncho]

Hmm I'm not sure about my first one but I used to always sing along with a Ren & Stimpy tape

I remember buying a lot of single CDs. Anyone remember those? They were just a couple bucks and had 1-2 songs on it with a remix. I remember having a lot of Mariah Carey singles but I know those weren't my first ones

My first cassette was Salt N Pepa... I was in 2nd grade and I remember being very, very surprised my mom let me buy it.
My first CD was The Smashing Pumpkin's Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. Much better purchase.

[silverjm]

My first cassette was MC Hammer - Hammer Time!

OMG that brings me back. That's definitely what I listened to as a pre-teen. Pretty awesome.

[carawestt]

Whatever band sang "Who Let the Dogs Out". I was like 7 and had to have it! I also got the Macarena CD that day haha.

[TrudyCampbell]

Dahli that made my night!

I remember buying ace of base and hootie and the blowfish pretty early on.

That is an amazing list of songs right there.

Did anyone else watch 90210? The episode when they stalk Color Me Bad is priceless.

[thedahliharpa]

I watched 90210 but I don't recall the episode. Why did my parents let me watch that? Probably because they were hooked on it too!

[TrudyCampbell]

Motownphilly's back again
Doin' a little east coast swing
Boyz II Men going off
Not too hard, not too soft

[thedahliharpa]

I also have Motownphilly stuck in my head SO bad right now!

[thedahliharpa]

OMG Trudy I posted about it being stuck on my head BEFORE you started singing. Jinx!

Ha! Oh man it is so stuck in my head. I don't think it's ever coming out. I'm starting to remember a dance I made up to it as a child :-|

[lolaburns]

My first tape was Vanilla Ice.

[lauranicole91]

I can't really remember my first CD, I'm sure it was around the time of NSYNC, BSB, A-teen, Brittney Spears, 98 Degrees etc.

I do remember playing my Lion King soundtrack cassette tape over and over though. That and a Mickey Mouse cassette. Haha.

[imimahoney]

Well because I was obsessed.... and way too young to watch:

Donna loves the band and finds out they are coming to Be hills. She convinces David and Kelly to search a hotel with her. During the chaotic search she stumbles her mom, who was an Huber conservative having an affair. Lots and lots of drama follows but she does get a mini concert by the boys at the end,

[TrudyCampbell]

I had this cassette tape of christmas songs when I was a child and I used to play "I'll be home for Christmas" and have my Beauty and the Beast "Beast" doll sing it to my Barbie.

OMG. Here he is. You could put the beast head on him when you wanted him to be the beast. I am laughing out loud!

Hootie! I think that might have been my second cd. Also...the Cardigans.

Oh, the 90s.

Good song list! I love that PM Dawn song.

[bebeetmoi]

I don't remember what my first CD was, but Boyz II Men with Usher was my first concert. All this MotownPhilly talk has me going back in the day...

[hass2001]

My first cd was a birthday gift from a friend. It was Mariah Carey - Fantasy.

Oh oh!! My hubby and I were just talking the other day about our first tape. Mine was a Genesis tape. I was super young. I told my mom I wanted music so she brought me to the music store. I had no idea what to buy. I thought it was Bible music, lol.

[hass2001]

Gah I can't read this thread!! Too many great songs and artists. What is it about music that makes me feel sentimental and nostalgic?

[charlielove]

My first tape was NKOTB. My first CD might have been Alanis Morisette? I was 12 and remember being horrified that it said a bad word because I thought I was going to get in trouble.
