That was then




This is now



We "older" Canadians remember when we got our own music channel. It was/is called MuchMusic. Similar to MTV, MuchMusic hit the airwaves in 1984. We "older" Canadians will remember some of the original VJ's - Erica Ehm, Christopher Ward, Michael Williams, Terry David Mulligan, etc. Of course, the above, then known as JD Roberts, was a familiar fixture on Much. He has since gone on to bigger and better things - CBS News Anchor and now he can be seen on CNN, going by the name John Roberts. You've come a long way but you'll always be JD to us "older" Canadians.


We all know the first song played on MTV was The Buggles - Video Killed the Radio Star, but do you know the first song played on MuchMusic? It's got to be a Canadian - you know that. Come on.......guess! (then scroll down)

It was Rush and their song 'The Enemy Within'. Remember that for all of your trivia needs.

Um, hello handsome. Much more "distinguished" as an older gentleman, may i write...

Rush, i've gotten to like them a little bit as i've aged myself...
