I lived in Germany for the first six years of my life as my Dad (rip) was posted there when he was in the army and I can remember catching the school bus to the English school and the german female driver had the radio on, she was singing to Cant But Me Love by the Beatles and she encoraged us all to join in. Being the youngest of four boys my eldest brother was in to Jim Morrison and The Doors and the song which really sticks out in my early days was Light My Fire.
And to add a further point the first record I ever bought was Billy Dont Be A Hero by Paper Lace
Yes I admit it, but dont tell anyone
