First record I ever got was "500 Miles" by the Proclaimers. I didn't understand that it was supposed to be a sad song. First album I ever bought with my own money was Rick Springfield's "Working Class Dog." I understood that "Jesse's Girl" was a sad song.
disney's "brer rabbit and tar baby" on vinyl, before i had a choice. then, debbie gibson's "electric youth" when i was old enough to choose. not sure which is worse.
I spent 16 years in the television business. I worked, by turns, as a writer, director, producer, casting associate, and the gal who gets everybody’s Starbucks order. Later, I spent time as a counselor at an outpatient program for adorable teens with un-adorable psych and addiction issues. Working in the orbit of actors, rock stars, comedians, and teenagers prepared me for my current gig as the stay-at-home mother of a kindergartner named Bob. Now, it’s like the circus has come to town everyday. I am living the dream.
Cold Play is on vinyl? Weird.
ReplyDeleteMy first album was inherited from my brother. I was 4 when he gave me his copy of The Birds, The Bees, and The Monkees.
Happy Together by the Turtles. I was 7.
