What was the first song you acquired?

[rcoobc]

I just realised that the first song I deliberately got for myself wasn't an album I bought (might have been Lost Prophets, not sure) but actually a song I downloaded off the Internet. I'm pretty sure this was before the Itunes store, I have no idea what legal service you could download music off back then, so I didn't use any.

It was indeed Uncle Kracker - Follow Me. I still have a soft spot for it now.
