My first musical physical media purchase was Backstreet Boys, but the rest after wasn't cringe, I swear!

Only because the passage of time declared Backstreet Boys to be no longer a cringe!

They still make me cringe. But now it's classic cringe.

Oh, Backstreets back alright.

My first album was a cassette dub of License to Ill my friend made in elementary school. My first purchase was Even Worse by Weird Al.

That's the best first I've ever heard. My first tape was Cruisin' Classics, which was free with a tank of gas from Shell. Thanks mom!

My dad basically hated any music post about 1950 except for The Beatles (don't ask me why The Beatles), so I was a late bloomer to rock albums. I think I was 12 when the Weird Al album came out.
