Ranking the 20 best singles of the year in Junos history
In honour of the 2025 Juno Awards in Vancouver, the CBC Music Top 20 has taken on the task of ranking the best songs to have ever won single of the year, from the category's inception in 1974 to the most recent winner, 50 years later. Usually, songs that move up and down the weekly Top 20 chart are decided by listener votes, radio play and streaming numbers, but for this special countdown — which airs on Thursday, March 20, on CBC Music and Monday, March 24, on CBC Radio 1 and SiriusXM — we turned to our music-loving CBC staff from coast to coast to coast for an internal vote to decide the best of the best. Over the years, single-of-the-year winners have included everyone from Bachman–Turner Overdrive to Barenaked Ladies, Nelly Furtado to Nickelback, Terry Jacks to Tate McRae, as well as the all-time leader in overall Juno wins, Anne Murray. But to see who made our all-time list, and which song ranks No. 1, take a look below. Let us know what you think via top20@ This new-wave nugget was an international hit for Toronto band Martha and the Muffins when it burst out of Canada in 1980, going Top 10 in Australia, the U.K., and here at home. 19. Building a Mystery, Sarah McLachlan (winner: 1998) This one was an immediate hit — and was the most-played song on Canadian radio in 1997. It won not only the 1998 Juno for single of the year, but also the Grammy for best female pop vocal performance. 18. Dangerous, Kardinal Offishall feat. Akon (winner: 2009) One of only a handful of hip-hop tracks to win for single of the year, from Canada's hip-hop ambassador and the man who popularized the term T-Dot. 17. Wavin' Flag, Young Artists for Haiti (winners: 2011) Dozens of Canadian pop singers came together in Vancouver during the 2010 Winter Olympics to record this all-star charity single of the K'naan hit Wavin' Flag, which raised over $1 million for earthquake relief in Haiti. 16. How You Remind Me, Nickelback (winner: 2002) Long considered Nickelback's signature rocker, this song hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was named the most-played song on U.S. radio in the 2000s by Nielsen Soundscan. 15. Ironic, Alanis Morissette (winner: 1997) Morissette made Juno history when she became the first woman to win single of the year in back-to-back years — for songs on the same album, 1995's Jagged Little Pill. 14. Promiscuous, Nelly Furtado feat. Timbaland (winners: 2007) This was Furtado's first No. 1 hit on Billboard, and the first song by a Canadian woman to hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Céline Dion did it seven years earlier. 13. One Week, Barenaked Ladies (winners: 1999) This one is BNL's biggest hit south of the border, and, coincidentally, One Week went to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for: one week. 12. Life Is a Highway, Tom Cochrane (winner: 1992) One of the most recognizable choruses in Canadian music, Life Is a Highway was a major breakthrough and global smash for the former Red Rider singer. 11. Closer, Tegan and Sara (winners: 2014) The Calgarian twins took a major career risk when they shifted their sound from their trusted indie rock to a more mainstream pop approach, but the gamble paid off big time: Closer is one of the biggest hits of their career. 10. Can't Feel My Face, the Weeknd (winner: 2016) This song was everywhere in 2015: a global No. 1, and one of the biggest commercial hits to ever win single of the year. 9. Try, Blue Rodeo (winner: 1989) This was the second single from Blue Rodeo's debut album, Outskirts, and to this day is considered one of the band's most beloved songs. 8. Complicated, Avril Lavigne (winner: 2003) The debut single from the pop-punk singer, the instantly recognizable Complicated peaked in the top five in more than 20 different countries, making it a global hit. 7. Blinding Lights, the Weeknd (winner: 2021) It's hard to paraphrase how big this song still is, but we'll try: Blinding Lights was the highest-selling global single of 2020, and hit No. 1 in more than 40 countries. To date, it is Spotify's most-played song of all time, and the first song to surpass four billion streams. 6. Bobcaygeon, the Tragically Hip (winner: 2000) Possibly the most Canadian song of all time? It is certainly one of the Hip's most beloved and cherished songs, and has been covered by everyone from Blue Rodeo to Dallas Green to Pearl Jam. 5. I'm Like a Bird, Nelly Furtado (winner: 2001) This song was a life-changer for Furtado. Before its release in 2000, very few people had ever heard of the B.C. singer. Then she released I'm Like a Bird and it took off, becoming a global hit — and the rest is history. 4. Crabbuckit, k-os (winner: 2005) The first hip-hop track to ever win single of the year, ironically about the desperation of the music business, Crabbuckit saw k-os singing over a Ray Charles-inspired bassline that some people are willing to pull others down to try and reach the top — like "crabs in a bucket." 3. You Oughta Know, Alanis Morissette (winner: 1996) Few songs ever released have created such a lasting conversation and mystery about its intended subject as You Oughta Know. The song marked Morissette's successful move from teen pop to alt-rock, and broke a bunch of records in the process — including, at the time, the longest run by a woman at the top of the Billboard Alternative chart. 2. Call Me Maybe, Carly Rae Jepsen (winner: 2013) Originally written as a folk song, Call Me Maybe was reworked as a pop single and caught the ear of fellow Canadian Justin Bieber, who helped send it to No. 1 around the world with one simple tweet: that Call Me Maybe was "possibly the catchiest song" he had ever heard. The planet agreed. 1. 1234, Feist (winner: 2008) Smart, quirky, unique and deceptively simple, this feel-good classic single-handedly turned Feist into a household name — and solidified Canadian indie rock as a red-hot, tariff-free export. 1234, co-written by Australian singer Sally Seltmann, hit the Top 10 in Canada, the U.K. and the States. And who can forget the choreographed iPod Nano commercial that played a mega role in launching this song into the stratosphere? Or the star-studded indie performance on Letterman, above? The CBC Music Top 20 with Grant Lawrence counts down the 20 hottest adult-alternative tracks heard on Mornings, Drive and Afterdark on CBC Music. Tune in weekly to hear the latest Canadian and international songs making waves right now and enjoy the show anytime on your CBC Listen app.

Barenaked Ladies, Justin Moore added to Ledge Amphitheater summer schedule
It'll be more than one week before two more just-announced shows hit The Ledge Amphitheater. The outdoor concert space in Waite Park has added a pair of shows to its ever-growing summer lineup. The Barenaked Ladies will bring the Last Summer on Earth tour to Minnesota on June 15. Less than a week later, country music star Justin Moore will arrive for a June 19 concert with Joe Nichols opening. The multi-platinum '90s hitmakers, Barenaked Ladies, announced a 38-date summer tour on Tuesday, which will bring them to Waite Park. They'll be joined by Fastball and Guster, the latter of which headlined a show at the State Theatre in downtown Minneapolis earlier this month. The Canadian group, most famous for their hit "One Week," is partnering with Reverb for the tour to make the tour more sustainable through the company's programs that include CO2 offsets, catering sourced from local farms, composting programs, and water-filling stations. Moore's stop in Minnesota is one of seven dates announced this week. The "Bait a Hook" singer will play 90-minute sets on the tour that will include his chart-topping hits and tracks from the new record This Is My Dirt, an album that features appearances from Dierks Bentley, Blake Shelton, and Randy Houser. Both concerts will go on sale to the public on Friday, Feb. 14 at 10 a.m. A fan presale through the Barenaked Ladies' Barenaked Bytes membership app will take place on Feb. 11 at 10 a.m. Non-members can access a presale through the app on Feb. 12 at 10 a.m. An artist presale for Moore's concert will take place on Feb. 12 at 10 a.m., and a local presale will take place the following day at the same time. The Ledge Amphitheater's summer lineup now includes concerts with Bonnie Raitt, Alison Krauss and Union Station, ZZ Top, Chicago, Rainbow Kitten Surprise, and Slightly Stoopid, among others.
