Glad it wasn't the other way round
ELO as well. I was just starting to ge into OMD. Also liked Blondie, a lad by ours used to play Blondie on a mono tape deck that he carried around with him, before ghetto blasters were ever heard of.
I had a pair of Kickers and a couple of Slazenger jumpers when I was still in 4th year juniors.

How could I forget Blondie! A passion I shared with me Dad, funnily enough! 
I remember when Denis went in at no.1 (it did, didn't it?) - defo in junior school.
Remember the first birthday present I actually bought for my Dad, out of my own money was Tide is High.
I totally concur with ELO; dad was a big fan, so knew all their hits off by heart.
Adam and the Ants were prolly my first real 'fave', and I must confess to liking FGTH as well...
I don't remember that far back, but Duran Duran and Wham are a couple of the first bands I remember liking. Maybe the Beatles too and even ELO, ala Arec!!
Coincidentally Pandora.com brought up ELO and OMD in the space of one day a while back. Haven't listened to ELO for probably over 20 years and only own OMDs 1st album now. Pandora is supposed to suggest alternative bands based on the feedback you give it. There might be some kind of link to what I like now.
1982 my favorite brand was probably Rush, and the Police, and i know for a few weeks in '82 i was heavily into Lynard Skynard!, mostly because they had cool Buttons
Erm erm.............ABBA.
Had about seven albums by 'em,then they started releasing them further and further apart.Till I just give up on them. Then Mum and Dad bought me "The Visitors" (last album) for Xmas,and I was like "err...thanks:( " Still good stuff though.
The Modern Talking
I wasn't into music before 1987 (my 10 years old), and that I didn't "follow" music before 1990 at all... when I started to listen to records and make tapes.

Yep, their 1979 Greatest Hits album is top. And 1981' Time is good. But honestly I don't listen to that music for 15 years already.

livin' thing is one of my all-time favourites. 
Well, this would've been 1989, 1990, 1991...so, I have to say Nirvana 
In all seriousness, I remember my uncle being big into rap from that time (I found some old decaying Public Enemy tapes of his from that time), I have fond memories of listening to the Beastie Boys before they grew a social conscience. My first tape was the Fat Boys, who were famous in rap circles for being...well, fat. 
Of course, that was also the era of hair metal, so I'm sure I grooved to some Whitesnake, Poison, etc. But I never, ever liked Aerosmith (who were also big back then) 
well...that would have been 1979, and I think it might have been Blondie...isn't that about the time Heart of Glass came out???
not too sure...that was way too long ago...
and before the world changed with me hearing New order!!
