I guess it depends on what you want to do with your programming. If you want to develop desktop applications, C++ is one obvious choice.
When I started my journey into programming about 10 years ago (not counting BASIC, which I learned in high school in the late '80s) the first language I learned was Perl. Back then it was super-popular, since PHP hadn't been invented yet.
If you want to get into web programming you can hardly go wrong with PHP and MySQL. A solid understanding of both will enable you to program almost any imaginable web application. And a big bonus is they're both relatively easy to learn.
