Sinclair Spectrum Basic but I never really wrote anything proper in it. I learnt the theory with it though.

c++. I started wanting to make games.. Spent months beating my head on the wall with c++ then tried to learn visual basic. Never got far with that, then went to PHP. Here I am now and now that I go back to c++ it is much easier. Still working on that game

10 if ..
20 GOTO 30 ..
30 etc
I've never seen any BASIC code, so excuse my ignorance, but isn't that just assembly with some better keywords?
Anywho, my first language was PHP, but I never wrote anything in it until after I had to do Visual Basic at college and that inspired me to continue with PHP.

C++ was the first thing I ever coded in, then over to Java, then back to C++, then through VB, Assembly, Perl, PHP, back to Java, and now on PHP.

LOGO is full of win.
Then Basic on the C64, Pascal, C, HTML/JS, then PHP. I'd say I want to stop here, but somehow, new languages seem to find their way onto my list.

Programming wise, Perl, but only a very little. Moved in to PHP when my flat-file 'database' application didn't do what I wanted it to and I didn't know enough Perl to make it do what I wanted it to.
Began learning PHP in 2003 (September-ish) and along the way I learned VBScript, Javascript, some C# and some ColdFusion. But to really answer your question, I would have to say that PHP was the first real programming language that I learned and it was the language primariuly responsible for my learning of OOP concepts.
Before that I was all about the markup, teaching myself HTML starting in 1997 (or perhaps it was 1998).
