Weekend Breeze is better than during the week, Why?
It's the exact same playlist.
What do you mean better ?
Song selection.

Same songs as normal.
They updated the playlist last Thursday though, so you just are hearing the new songs.

They played Madonna - Lucky Star last night at 12:53am for the very first time.

I wish it was Live To Tell instead. That one hasn't been played again after those 2-3 scattered spins a month ago.
Live to tell just played.
Somebody edited the song. The intro is cut off. It started right in the middle of her first vocal. The ending was also cut short. It cut her off mid vocal.

Wtf

They are playing "Royals" by Lorde right now.
Wtf.
Even WNIC wouldn't play that song.

Heard "Lights Down Low" by Max in the car yesterday.

I'm glad I decided to stop listening all day when I did.

I heard an annoying Beyonce song on 98.7 yesterday that definitely didn't fit the format.

A couple days earlier, heard a very uptempo Steve Winwood song (Roll With It) that doesn't belong on a station positioning itself as "relaxing."

My guess is 98.7's demos are old and they are trying to experiment with some things to make the station have broader appeal.

Just give it about 6 to 9 months....The station will start sounding like 105.1 in its last few years, after they migrated away from the “Magic” name. More Katy Perry, more Gaga....ugh...

Heard Chaka Kahn’s I’m Every Woman 🤮

Doesn’t sound like a Soft AC or AC Gold to me. What are they actually trying to be? Just another WNIC right before it became Fresh? At the beginning, I didn’t think they were even close to WNIC, which is why I liked it.

The Breeze 98.7 will have to chase after WNIC because 100.3 is good at what they’re doing and have been good for years. So expect Lady Gaga and Katy Perry songs on 98.7 in the future.

The people listening to the Breeze obviously don't want to hear the Lady Gaga and Katy Perry songs WNIC is obsessed with... so I don't see that happening.
Thank.god

I'm pretty sure they are playing Whitney's cover of it, not the Chaka Khan version
But I could be mistaken....

But either way.. that song is not a "soft favorite"

You're not quite getting the concept...
That is not a soft or relaxing song.

I’m relaxed when I hear it, Tonight The Breeze played Benny Mardones “Into The Night” at around 7:40 now that song is not relaxing, A song about an old Dude hitting on a 16 year old, “She’s just sixteen years old, Leave her alone they say” Really! I mean Really! This song is on a family oriented radio station 🤣 Man, What is going on in the world anymore. :rollin
