Whether you're old enough to remember records, or whether the first music you owned was bought off iTunes.

What was the first music recording that was personally yours? It could have been a gift, something you bought with an allowance, or whatever. NO MATTER HOW EMBARASSING, post it plz.

My very first was Will Smith's CD, "Big Willie Style", which I got as a Xmas gift about 10 years ago. I still have not listened to it all the way through.

I tell people that my first music purchase was Blur's Country House, but in actual fact I made my mother buy me the Power Rangers theme song when it was released as a single back in 1994. :yuck:

Erm, birthday gift, I think they were all in the same parcel...

Oh, God, I can't bear it..!

I can't say, it's too horrific.

I never really had much of an interest in music really. I used to have a cassette player when I was about five but I really can't remember anything I used to listen to. I remember my sister bought a Smurfs CD though.

The first CD I ever bought for myself was Feeder's Echo Park in about 2003.

Edit: Wow, legitimate usage of the word 'smurf' that isn't a censorship!

The first CD I bought was either Follow the Leader by KoRn or Antichrist Superstar by Marilyn Manson. I cannot remember which came first.

Hmmm..as far back as I can remember... the first music purchase I myself made was, to my memory, 'Nimrod' by Green Day. >_<

The first one I bought myself was actually Michelle Branch - The Spirit Room.

Though like most of my CD's it's gone. :(

Though now that I'm not with that thief of a brother, I'll need to start re-buying some of me lost CD's. :p

It was a cassette of the Lion King soundtrack I won in an elementary school contest. Several years later, I upgraded to a CD player and bought either the Titanic soundtrack or Savage Garden.

my first cd was of beethoven's 9th symphony. I don't remember buying a cassette for myself until after that time

Think Twice by Celine Dion, although I like to tell people it was 7 Seconds by Neneh Cherry & Youssou N'Dour.

One of my first CDs was Michael Jackson's HIStory. I don't remember what the first one was, but that one was definitely one of the earliest and had a big impact on my childhood.

One of two choices that come to mind:

Oasis - (What's the Story) Morning Glory? [on cassette tape]
Peter Frampton - Greatest Hits [on CD]

Cassette tape ftw.

Ouch!

Some really lame hits collection that I received as a gift. I no longer own it, nor can I recall what songs were on the album. I didn't like it even at the time. xD

You actually buy your music? :p

I've never bought music. The radio's fine with me, and if I want music, it can always be torrented.

My iPod is mostly television DVDs I've ripped.

I'm about 90% sure my first album was David Kersh's <i>Goodnight Sweetheart</i>, in 1998, on cassette tape. I had a hard time deciding whether to get <i>Goodnight Sweetheart</i> or <i>If I Never Stop Loving You</i>. Little did I know the latter would be the last album David Kersh would release. ;]

The album I bought for myself was the Nirvana greatest hits when I was 13, which was the album that got me into rock music. My 2nd purchase saved me from ever becoming a grunge obsessed teenage emo case & that was Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park. I've been an LP fan since.

Sadly, my first one was Britney Spears first album on cassette tape. Can't remember the name of the album, its the one with "Oops, I did it again." I'm sorry guys, please forgive me! LOL.

I think it was an Elvis greatest hits cassette tape when I was like 5.

I was like Lilo in Lilo and Stitch until I was like 11.

It's the first one I can remember, but that doesn't mean it was the first EVER.

Might have been an Offspring album. Honestly can't remember now.

My first music purchase ever was Jimmy Barnes' album "Raw" on cassette tape. I bought the CD a little while ago, and it's every bit as awesome as it was back then. :p

The first CD I bought myself was U2 - The Joshua Tree. However, the first CD's I owned, (they were bought for me) were Carmen Electra and the Jurassic Park soundtrack...

I'm embarassed by this but my first CD purchase was Sum 41's "All Killer No Filler." But it was okay for what age I was back then, good harmless teenager rock.

Hey, Sum 41 is cool. :(

Hey, Sum 41 is cool. :(

Didn't mean to offend you, I even saw them live a few months ago, they just used to be a Blink 182-like band then grew up a bit. The first album was that Blink 182 stuff but still was pretty cool for when I was in 7th grade.

First album I ever bought was Metallica's Kill 'Em All, right around the time I started listening to metal...of course, that was before I completely lost faith in that band.
