What was the first music you can remember hearing? and the first recorded 'song'? (Have we really not had this one before?)

Beethoven's 5th Symphony.

I remember hearing "Cars" on the radio. I'm assuming this was when I was 4 or 5, several years after the song's initial radio appearance.

Unless you count Ethiopian lullabies, I guess.

All of the earliest music I remember was on television: the Jackson 5 + Osmonds cartoons, Bay City Rollers "Shang-A-Lang", Monkees repeats etc. I also have painful memories of UK novelty pop from 1974-76 {Wombles, Goodies, Wurzels). First record heard was "Rupert the Bear" by Jackie Lee.

"Over the River and Through the Woods". On record: "Puff the Magic Dragon" by Peter, Paul & Mary.

It's all a blur of the Stevie Wonder and Village People (seriously) concerts my parents took me to and vinyl at home like Phantom of the Opera and Beethoven's 5th.

Come to think of it, after those two records + the Ghostbusters soundtrack, that's all the music that was ever available to me at home as a kid.

A Dean Martin? 45 single - Magic Moments / Catch a Falling Star. I just couldn't stop playing with the 78/33 settings.
