The Sony Walkman turns 30 today. Christ, the thing has got half a decade on me.

When I received my first Walkman as a gift, it was accompanied by Green Day’s Insomniac album. You can bet your ass that thing heard its fair share of Ace of Base and Aqua by the time it had run its course.

I remember my first Walkman like it was 12 years ago. Wait…

They say you always remember your first. Do you?

Update: And just for shits and giggles, if you haven’t seen this article yet, see what a young teen from the iPod generation makes of the Walkman. (Thanks for the suggestion Captain Moof)

Powered by the Honda V4 engine, which was originally used in the 1980s on Honda motorcycles, this new concept from Honda suggests that the automaker might be bringing it back in a new bike. Check out those sweet curves and bodacious rims. Actually, it’ll probably never see the light of day considering Honda commissioned it to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the V4 engine. One can dream though, no?
