i just went through all of my 7" singles and the winner was 99 red balloons by nena--1983. english version on one side, german original on the other. amazingly it was the german one that charted in the US. that doesn't happen very often!

I'm far to old to remember such things!

Maybe it was that song called "Words". Can't remember who sang it though.

Heartbreaker, by The Rolling Stones, for moi.

Can't remember the songs, but I'm pretty sure it was something by Janet Jackson or Miami Sound Machine.

Which makes it sort of ironic when I complain about the kids today listening to Britney or Busted :nono: :evil4:

Was it this song called "Words"? It was the 1st one I thought of when I saw the song title.

Here's the lyrics to jog your memory. ;)

I can't remember and I am not sure the answer would bring joy to anyone. I do remember having the Grease album and a red plastic record player with microphone. I also remember singing into the mic will all my heart and wishing I had a black leather jacket and a fox like Sandy to hunt!:D

You mean F.R.David's "Words"?

Mine was either:

'Living Doll'- Cliff Richard and the Young Ones or 'The Slightest Touch'- Five Star

I'm not sure which one came first but I know I spent my pocket money on both. I had really sad taste in music without a doubt and it got worse before it got any better. Luckily it improved once I hit my teenage years.

Admitting to that was therapeutic :)

believe it or not I did not buy any singles before my first New Order one, which I believe was Subculture. I used to just buy albums.
