1st song you remember???


OK, not a mindbender of a thread but a fun one.

The absolute first song I really heard and remembered
was the theme to Davey Crockett, which year...1954 or 55. I was either 4 or 5. 1st "rock" song: Blueberry Hill by Fats
Domino, 1955 or 56. I was at a friends house and he had a
much older brother who had this 45 record player playing
this song over and over. Funny how you remember things. By the way I did have a Davey Crockett coonskin cap with tail.

I'm sure that I remembered the lyrics to some early childhood songs (like "Baa Baa Black Sheep"), but the first song I am certain I remember was a novelty tune that hit the charts in around 1950, titled "Cincinnati Dancing Pig". My Dad, a career officer in the US Marine Corps, was at Ohio State University to finish his MS degree, and I recall hearing the song on the car radio a number of times.
"The Naughty Lady Of Shady Lane" by the Ames Brothers, 1954. The family named our dog (black cocker) Shady after the song. I thought about "Davey Crockett" and "How Much Is That Doggy In The Window" too but believe this one is the first I remember. Judit, what was the first commercial song you remember? Nice thread.
The first song I really remember from my childhood was "We didn't start the fire" though I had no clue what it meant at the time I just knew I liked it. Who would have thunk that all those other words actually meant something.
