WINNIPEG — As part of our 40th anniversary celebrations, we will be doing “Rewind Wednesday” on the first Wednesday of every month with various flashbacks. To get you in the birthday groove, we thought that the top song of each year would be a great way to start.
A lot has changed over 40 years in how we deliver the news at Global Winnipeg. As you can tell from this list, so has the music we all listen to. So get ready to disco, sing along to a few love ballads and take a trip through time with this fun Top 40 list we have prepared for you!
