First "mainstream" Song You Liked?

[sodamntired]

Growing up, what was the first radio/music television song you remember hearing that you liked?

 

 

You know...a song that wasn't a nursey rhyme...or a Weird Al song.....or a kiddie song?.....you know what I mean??

 

 

 

For me...it was

 

 

Green Day - Basket Case....heard it/saw it on MTV one summer

 

 

good stuff

 

 

 

anyone else?

I honestly can't remember, but it was probably Big League by Tom Cochran.

 

I also remember really digging Ironic by Alanis Morisette and that New Radicals song. I forget the anme, but it was like "don't give up; you've got a reason to live, one last chance, you only get what you give" or something.

"Get What You Give"

[no yu begin wher i end]

I think it was a Barenaked Ladies song. 'One Week', probably.

As for my answer:

 

Peaches by The Presidents Of The United States Of America

 

I'm not sure it was the song itself, or the video, or a combination but something clicked in with me.

Probably "Beat It" by Michael Jackson, or something like that, when i was a wee lad. Yeah i'm old.

The one that I can distinctly remember was Barbie Girl by Aqua

Today-The Smashing Pumpkins

I'm thinking it would be Superman's Dead by Our Lady Peace

[5ilent Narcotic]

Either "Go-Go" by Wham or "Carribian Queen" by Lionel Richie
