You know, Deeply Dippy is a regular earworm of mine. You know The Game (as in the mind game, not the rapper? And- sorry if you just lost The Game!)? It’s a bit like that except with Deeply Dippy.

Next time I do karaoke, I’m going to fuckin’ nail Deeply Dippy :smiley:

And The Game! If you think about The Game, you lose The Game!

First album chosen: Tears For Fears - Songs From The Big Chair (1985 - ‘free’ tape from Britannia Music Club, chosen when my folks couldn’t decide on anything that month)

First album bought: Bros - Push (1988 - on tape, with holiday money at Ingoldmells Butlins, followed very shortly after by Yazz and the Plastic Population - Wanted, and MJ - Bad, on tape, with pocket money from Woolies in Boston)

First album received: London Boys - The Twelve Commandments Of Dance (1989)

First 7" singles bought: Adamski (featuring Seal) - Killer and England New Order - World In Motion, then Betty Boo - Doin’ The Do (1990, from a small independent place in Spilsby)

First 12" single bought: Sunscreen - Pressure US (1993, from Boston Woolies)

First gigs/concerts: Some cajun band playing at a theatre in a nearby town (a bit Levellers-y), with my mate, which we were allowed to tag along to because his older sister was going, circa 1994. Then Oasis at Maine Road in 1996, on a package coach tour thing. Then, later that year, Beck at Manchester Academy (as sung about by Gomez in Whippin Piccadilly) excitedly driving across from Lincolnshire on a school night, trying to locate the venue without an address or a map (“how big can Manchester be”!) then being dangerously tired on the drive back home. Good times.
