Do you remember the first song you loved as a kid?

Share it! Preferably by an actual music artist and not something like a nursery rhyme, lol.

@Degbeme you're the same age as my Dad, they had 6 transistor radios and reel to reel recorders back then

There is a cassette tape recording of my mom and little 3 yr old me just talking and reading a story and of the songs I was singing [or trying to].

It cracks me up my parents let me listen to them but I didn't know what anything meant. 😂🤣

Juice Newton - Queen of Hearts

@Starcrossed Left my parent's copy at a 6th grade slumber party.Still regretting it.
Yes,the Apple usually meant good music was about to play.

Also my very first celebrity crush, before I even knew what a crush was

dubkebab · 56-60, M

@SarahAndSamantha This brought back memories.Can confirm a much too young crush as well.

SarahAndSamantha · 46-50, F

@dubkebab I didn't know hair could be that long at the time. I was simultaneously enthralled and jealous.

dubkebab · 56-60, M

@SarahAndSamantha Those are some goddess locks alright,and otherworldly vocals.
Plus anyone who jams out with The Muppets is automatically cool.

dubkebab · 56-60, M

This was my jam as a toddler.

I tried my best to convince my parents to name my baby sister BigBirdFlock.
Plus that album cover was perfection.

@saragoodtimes woaaaaaw. He looks so young and his voice and the way he talks, he seems so chill. I'm like rediscovering him right now. Thanks for sharing this

I was like 7 when this song came out and I was obsessed with it. 😬

@MiserableAtBest I was like 7 when I was 7.

It was TLC's Waterfalls, except in my head I sang it as "Go, Go, Jason Waterfalls". I didn't know who Jason Waterfalls was, but as a kid I was heavily rooting for him.

@ineedadrink Holy shit! The first song I loved was “Detroit Rock City”! My parents had a compilation with that and this song.

ineedadrink · 51-55, M

@Ducky I heard it on the radio, didn't know who it was or anything about music in general but I would always crank up the volume whenever I heard it after that.

ChiefJustWalks · 26-30

It was an Eminem song that wasn't exactly meant for kids. I used to ask my dad to put it on in his car because he had the CD.
I always say it reminded me of my parents 🤗

Yes, my Grandpa used to sing an old Gershwin song, and I always loved listening to him sing it.
I wrote about it in one of the writing prompts in September 2019:
