Soundtrack to your Childhood... (depeche mode, dance, house, pop, rock)

**right-track** · 10-02-2005, 12:10 PM

Which records do you remember most as a child?

What records would you choose as the soundtrack to your childhood?

For me it was the music of Northern Soul. My older sister used to bring her friends round, move the table and chairs in the kitchen and practice dance steps on the lino floor.

Records like - Do I Love You - Frank Wilson/ Landslide - Tony Clarke /Right Track - Billy Butler.

The beginnings of a lifelong love affair

My Dad was a teddy boy in his youth so lots of old rock n roll.
Although strangly no Elvis , both my parents loathed him. Buddy Holly was the king of Rock N Roll in our household.
My mother was a bit of a mod in the 60s so lots of stuff like The Who , The Kinks , The Small Faces , she was also into early 80s synth pop too so lots of Ultravox , Human League , Soft Cell & that kind of stuff.

Edit : How nice to finally see a thread without a poll or a 'who`s the best.....' in the title.

^^em, you were a child in the 90's yet your soundtrack is from the 80's...that's nasty....
unfortunately i was actually a child in the 80's and my sister had shiit taste in music, so my earliest memories ( before i actually started to listen to music on my own in the beggining of the 90's ) would be that of Martika, Jason Donovan and Kyle Minogue, Toto, Duran Duran and other emotionally scarring 80's music....

Merkaba · 10-02-2005, 06:08 PM

Haha my sister had **** taste too. Michael Jackson 8hrs a day for about 80weeks.
I don't mind MJ, heck I didn't even think he was that much of a poof back then, still being black and all, but I got so sick of man in the mirror and all the rest. And then came Bryan Adams, oh christ I thought to myself, I'd rather talk the mirror again.

I myself didn't have much care for music when I was younger, I would pester mum to hire out a playstation more than I would listen to music. Funnily enough, the bands I used to hate on the radio such as Radiohead and R.E.M, I now like and can't understand why I never delved into them more.
