" Do You Remember the First Time?" is a song by British rock band Pulp, taken from their 1994 album His 'n' Hers. It was released 21st March 1994 as the third single from the album, charting at #33 in the UK Singles Chart (see 1994 in British music).
The songs lyrics are about the first time one has sexual intercourse, and how it is likely to be a bad experience. The narrator of the song looks back and realises how much "we've grown".
Sometimes a "sanitised" version of the song was aired on TV and radio, with the lyric "I don't care if you screw him" changed to "I don't care if you knew him".
The b-sides to the French single - acoustic versions of "Joyriders", "Dogs are Everywhere" and "Razzmatazz" - were later released in the UK as the b-sides of CD2 of "Common People".
To promote the release of the track, lead singer Jarvis Cocker asked fans to recount stories of their own "first time" sexual experiences. A short film was produced by Cocker and Steve Mackey, featuring loss of virginity stories from celebrities including Justine Frischmann, Jo Brand and John Peel. This was made available on the "Sorted for Films & Vids" video, and later the "Pulp Hits" DVD.
