"All I Wanna Do" by Sheryl Crow and "Kiss From A Rose" by Seal!
I've already heard "Kiss from a Rose" by Seal twice on 98.7.

"All I Wanna Do" by Sheryl Crow probably is too uptempo for The Breeze. You might hear that one on 96.3 on occasion. Frankly, that's a song WOMC should be playing! (They did for a brief time in 2017.)
I hate it that stations that play 80s/90s music will regularly play one particular song by an artist and won't touch any of their other stuff. Seal is a perfect example of this. I hear Kiss From a Rose quite often on 92.5 The Fox FM (northern Michigan) but never anything else, such as:

-Prayer for the Dying (reached #11 on the Mainstream Top 40 chart)
And that’s why you don’t hear it anymore. One chart. If it scored higher and crossed over to pop... I have personal favorites that don’t get radio play now.
-Don't Cry (reached #4 on the AC chart, and I can't remember the last time I've heard this one on any radio station)
You just described why... see above.
-Crazy (ok I hear this one once in a very great while on the radio)
Again, see above.
-Fly Like an Eagle (reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100)
Fly Like an Eagle was a horrible cover.

Seal... is on the beach.

I only recognize "Crazy" and his cover of "Fly Like An Eagle", and I like neither.

Seal is best left kissing the roses imo

Are you serious? Please tell me this isn't a stunt. Unless it's to announce a morning show or something.

Sounds like Their trying to target the dentist offices that listened to them during their smooth jazz days.
My dentist office ( and Drs office, and most waiting rooms of any kind ) has HGTV on and listens to Spotify, what century are you posting from?

I'm sure the 5pm Friday announcement is for a contest or something.

Sorry. Breezy won’t be on my preset. No Conniff, Mantovani, Kaempfert, Percy Faith, Mancini, Melachrino, Winterhalter, Kostelanetz, et al. Bring back Beautiful Music.
No Ronnie Aldrich and his Two Pianos, NO SALE!

Bob Seger (who I'm REALLY sick of), a rock artist, on 98.7 again. A nice throwback.

Why do doctors offices have HGTV on ? Is it because after you get your bill in the mail for something the insurance companies won’t cover you can’t afford a home improvement project so this only allows you to dream about it so when you go back to that doctors office it reminds you to pay that doctor bill.Just saying!

My dentist office also has HGTV on. I can watch DIY people drill in their walls while the dentist drills in my teeth!

I can’t handle another Adele song every time they play her my 2 Bombay Cats run under the bed and my Labrador Retriever runs to the basement to take cover I can’t leave this station On anymore.

Everytime Adele comes on I just tell myself "it will be over before you know it" lol.
At least they aren't playing that Taylor Swift Lady Gaga garbage stuff that WNIC thinks "we want to hear"

I can live with Adele a few times a day since the rest of the playlist is perfect.

This morning around 4 they played Adelle twice within 20 minutes different songs but still that’s bad.

Oh btw, someone the other day was hoping for some 60s Motown.
I heard The Temptations play yesterday.

Also I have been hearing more 60s tunes too, like "Brown Eyed Girl"
