I don't know if this thread will catch on but i thought it may be fun for those who have loved and / or been touched by music since childhood.
The first song that i ever heard holds great meaning for me.
To this day i love it as much as i did when i first heard it as a young child.
I think that i was 4 or 5 and i was haunted and mesmerized by it.
I can't say these were two of the first songs I ever heard as a child, but they were surely two songs I remember not being able to get out of my head and was singing along to all day in the third grade!
I remember Pop Goes The Weazel from an old metal crank box where the clown pops up.
The first radio song I remember was Wooly Bully because my brother would always shake his head back and forth during the song in the back seat of the car and then real fast during the part "Watch it now watch it."
I think it may have been Judy Garlands's "The Trolley Song" : ding, ding, ding goes the trolley, ring, ring, ring goes the bell... or "Mairzy Doats". It was the mid '40s. My child's mind probably tuned out more adult songs like "Red Sails in the Sunset" and such.

Suzanne by Leonard Cohen.
You became melancholy at an early age!
I was impressed by the song too, but I was in my mid twenties.
I do! I rarely post, but a couple of weeks I had a flashback of sorts, I remembered one evening when I was 3 or 4 and here is what my mother was listening to:
A snowy night bundled with neighbors, friends and family; I'm perhaps three to four years old marveling at Christmas lights on bare trees surrounding a colorful carousel of horses with ice skating on a frozen lake nearby and this song performed by a local band.
