The first song I remember hearing
When I was six, I spent the summer living with my older brother. It was my last day, raining. I was sobbing because I didn’t want to leave. He put on Here Comes the Sun by the Beatles, the rain stopped, the sun came out and I knew everything was going to be OK. After that I became a lifelong fan of the Beatles.

The first album I bought
Now That’s What I Call Music! 23, because it had Would I Lie to You? by Charles & Eddie on there, which I thought was the greatest song of all time.
