As of today, Much Music, celebrates it's 25th birthday.

The first music video shown was, Grace Under Pressure, by Rush.

I think I might have caught a bit of the first day 25 years ago.

Actually, it was 'The Enemy Within' by Rush

Apparently no one at Much Music wanted to celebrate their 25th.  I did see an interview with CNN news anchor John Roberts as he reflected on his days at Much.  As many Canadians may know, John Roberts (or J.D. Roberts, as he was known then) co-launched Much Music and served as a VJ for many years.  He was also one of the original hosts of the program 'The NewMusic' (from 1979-1985) which did eventually broadcast on Much Music for many years as well as CityTV, which was where it's original home was

I loved those "Weird Al" Specials they had on there.
