No not a single man or unicorn!

I'm talking about the first time you paid for 7 inches of vinyl pleasure

What was the first single you ever bought?

Mine was mungo Jerry's in the summertime...

Twickenham

First single i was given was "Helule Helule" by the Tremulous

First one I bought was "Ernie" by Bennett Hill and I still have it.

A lot of people pretend that their first single was something cool whereas its more likely to be Mr Blobby or an X Factor winner

Between Chichester and Havant

The very first I bought was 'My boomerang won't come back' by Charlie Drake when I was about six.

As a teen, I think it was 'Einstein a Gogo' by Landscape.

There’s no way I can make this sound cool, but honesty is the best policy.

As much as I wish that my single was Anarchy in the UK by the Sex Pistols, in reality it was the Dr Who theme tune
