Records when you was a child.
When I was a very little child I remember my Mum and Dad having the following records lying around..
Stevie Wonder - I just called to say I love you Thompson Twins - Doctor Doctor Clannad - Harrys Game and Robin Hood theme Band Aid - Do They Know Its Christmas Supertramp - Breakfast in America Some judy tzuke stuff Lovin' You - Minnie Riperton. I have a older brother who was really into Pink Floyd, Hendrix and The Doors and Cream and YES, etc.. I suppose I had a good musical upbringing, I am 33 yet my older bro is 56. My dad died about 9 years ago and his favourite group for the last 6-10 years of his life was The Cure. I remember when he watched one of The Cure's videos 'Lullaby' on MTV and from that day was hooked! My dad was 64 when he died. Such a strange journey from Thompson Twins to The Cure. What records lay about the house when you was a nipper? As I said I am now 33 but people here are older and younger than me. What lay about the house? |

My mum used to listen to Bonnie Tyler, ABBA and the Carpenters....
My dad listened to R.E.M, Oasis and Paul Weller. No wonder they got divorced. |

From what I remember, my dad had many vinyl records of artists such as Marvin Gaye, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley.
My mum's record collection varied from acts such as Abba to Madonna. Both my parents had Hindi and Urdu collections from Bollywood films and records from singers such as Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Asha Bhosle and Lata Mangeshkar. |

![]() ![]() That was just the music she had when I was growing up, she's gathered even more as the years go by and I have managed to influence her a bit too. It's nice really the memories I have, It's like a wee treasure she has passed down to me, I am doing the same with my kids. |

Queen - A Kind Of Magic
Sinead O'Connor - Nothing Compares To You Those are the 2 that stand out to me from hearing a lot when I was a really young. Everytime I hear the opening of AKOM, those finger clicks just take me right back to me dancing about my living room with a hairbrush pretending to be Freddie Mercury when I was about 5 when my parents were in bed and I would sneak downstairs on my own
