On Sundays we’ve begun showcasing community-focused people/groups, so you can find out what’s going on where & when. One of the questions we’re asking of all of our guests is “What was Your First Single?”.
The plan with this is to create a chart of music from our guests – if nothing else, you’ll realise the first single you bought wasn’t so bad. Or maybe it might cause you to reminisce and be transported back to a moment in time, when……
I asked the same thing of my friends’ at the weekend – what was your first single? - and discovered I definitely am not one of the cool kids. I had a response that included Bohemian Rhapsody and Elvis. Mine? Thought you might ask that. Mine was Criag McLachlan – Hey Mona. I’m holding my head high when I state that; in fairness I think I was only about 7, although you could argue that’s old enough to know better. It was a cassette tape that I carried around religiously in my Walkman.
It's fair to say that my taste these days is much more eclectic but I still have a penchant for what I’d term ‘happy tunes’. That’s why my go to song has to be Chesney Hawkes. Give I Am The One & Only a listen, now. I challenge you not to feel uplifted and be smiling by the end of it!
