And don't bullshit and say The Jam. ![]()
Don't remember being 10 whatsoever. Junior school. Can't remember much bar the Boomtown Rats, maybe?
Move an entire year on though and at big school, in the first year: everything Ska and 2-tone and Mod'ish, so the Jam, Madness, Selecter, Bad Manners, the Beat.
Would probably say the Specials at aged 11.
It's a fcuking big leap from being 10 to being 11. ![]()

I defo remember being in Junior School and listening to the Jam. and the Ruts. mind you, this kid in our Street who was 3 years older got me into them, coz he had the singles.
also Specials, Dickies, Bad Manners and of course Madness.
I even had a trilby at one point, and all the badges.
(my last badge phase)

Sadly, wearing a trilby and a bit of Fred - where once it was soooo cool - would just make you look like a B*byshambles fan now. ![]()

You ungrateful bastard. I would have killed to have got that. I was lucky if i got a lump of coal and a clip round th'ed
When I was 10 it was the Velvet Underground and The Doors. I had some great records and a very cool uncle who was only too pleased to share his taste in music. Then I discovered The Ramones and the Sex Pistols in 1977. Joy Division followed in 1979.

I was 10 in 1997... I liked music from the 1980's better than the Spice Girls garbage that was popular at the time.

I agree, I much prefer 80's music to the tosh that was around in the 90's. Apart from Stone Roses, and stuff, 80's pop was much better than 90's.
Well, all those years ago it was.........Abba.
Yeah, I know I know.![]()
Few years later it was:
MADNESS
I don't remember being much into music when I was 10, but my favourite band when I was about 12 were Queen.
I remember being asked in the last year of the junior school (1983) who our favourite singers / bands were. Whilst all the other kids were saying Culture Club, Spandau and the Duranies, I got laughed at for saying Bob Dylan & Rod Stewart.
I realized yesterday that I wasn't into music before 1983 (my 10 years old), and that I didn't "follow" music before 1987 really... when I started to listen to the radio and make tapes, and in 1990, I started to listen to my own music instead of following the others :p
So for 10 years old, it has to be Culture Club and Duran Duran... I don't see any other really.
