Unless someone has "Agadoo" in their Hand, I think you've probably nailed it.

1980 Baggy Trousers - Madness (7" Vinyl)

Still got it.

[Deleted User] · 17/07/08 - 11:07

Mine was probably a New Kids On The Block single. I still love them now

"Devil Gate Drive" Suzi Quatro - it cost 65p.

Culture Club - Victims.

CLL Dodge · 19/07/08 - 13:52

"Save Me" by Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich. 1966.

linnylou · 19/07/08 - 15:53

First 7" was Abba ' Knowing Me Knowing You'......a ha!!!!!

First 12" was George Michael ' Careless Whisper'

nelliek · 19/07/08 - 20:03

'I understand' by The G-Clefs.
I bought the record before I'd even got a record player.

Like several other FMs I bought a proper record player. Dansette, two-colour (mine was blue and cream), 33/45/78rpm, multi-stacking.
With optional legs.

Shakespeares Sister - Stay lol

glyn9799 · 22/07/08 - 10:50

I've just checked, by first single wasn't Britney Spears. No, it was Steps with Tragedy / Heartbeat. I had 2 copies

I kinda went through phases of singles. I bought a couple around 1998/1999 and then didn't buy another CD until 2003. Then i started again about 2005.
