Listography Five First Albums

The first singles I bought were actually quite cool (Nick Kershaw, Diana Ross, Aztec Camera). But no,  Kate Takes 5 is clever, she wants albums for this week's listography.

One...deep breath
Elton John - strictly speaking this was from Mum and Dad's collection, but aged five I went to great lengths to make my own taped version. Saturday Night and Crocodile Rock were my faves.

Two...okay this one's pretty cool
Duran Duran - aged six I had a huge argument with my best friend Claire because I was singing the vocals and the backing vocals to Wild Boys, whereas she was just singing the vocals. I was very sad when Simon Le Bon got married.

Three...still love this one to this day
Wham - although I always felt guilty about listening to Wham after reading a slightly steamy article about Andrew and George in the dentist's waiting room aged about seven. Can't remember what it was about

but it probably wasn't very appropriate for my age.

Four...classic
Pet Shop Boys - Great for singing along, out of tune, aged nine, on long car journeys with my walkman headphones in.

Five...oh no really don't want to admit to this
Kylie by Kylie Minogue, and I even autographed it 'To Penny love Kylie'. Massive cringe.

Dear Reader

Forgive me my musical sins.

I was young and knew no better.

Thanks.
