November/December 2011 playlist

Hmm, Home Alone theme not playing until after Thanksgiving?

Maybe because the movie itself was more associated with Christmas? Kinda surprised they haven't thought about throwing it on a Christmas playlist.

I was thinking the same thing, however it shocks me to see an OCM tweeting about it being removed.

Yeah that is kinda weird, but the reasoning isn't the best. We all know Christmas starts November 1st and not after Thanksgiving.

So there were actually people complaining about the Home Alone theme playing?  I don't get what the big deal is. If that's the case, maybe they ought to remove First Snow from the list too.

This may be an indication that a lot of viewers have interest in the playlist. (unless of course it was a group of members here that complained about it. We have so much power. )

Well Living by Moby replaces that song on the morning list according to weather.com....so I can see why they are doing this. Kinda glad with TWC's move though. The Home Alone THeme (and even the TSO songs) are playing way too early in the season

First Snow doesn't sound all that Christmas-y so that can stay IMO

Personally, I didn't see a problem in playing a couple Christmas-associated songs at the beginning of November.  It kind of gets you in the mood for the holiday season. I'm surprised that it apparently created such an uproar that TWC would take it off the playlist, and Eric would tweet about it.  I guess some people don't want to be in the holiday spirit yet.

I'm surprised that it only played for one day  until TWC took it off

I thought I heard it play for a few days.

Morning
Best: Ryan Farish - Together We Will Conquer
Worst: Booker T & MGs - Green Onions (surprising, eh? )

Daytime
Best: None, all the songs are average to me for the most part.
Worst: Eric Marienthal - Rendezvous (too summery of a song)

Primetime
Best: Ryan Farish - Enchanted; Searching
Worst: Moby - Living (too depressing)

Overnight
Best: Nicholas Grey - Peripheral Vision
Worst: None

Wow, I just realized Wizards in Winter is not on the list. I've always liked that song..

[Mike M]

Has anyone ever heard that primetime Bunny the Bear song on a 2 minute local? 

[Zach]

It's played on 2:00 locals before

November/December 2011 Primetime 7

EDIT: I take that back, because the above video was captured during WUWA

I heard the Home Alone theme along with Carol of the Bells at the beginning of the playlist.

Carol of the Bells is not on the playlist.

The Bunny the Bear song, for some miracle, was playing on WUWA during the 2 minute LF's all last week. I was able to catch one of the clips since this song never plays during the 2 mins on primetime. Also, has anyone heard "White Water" by Matthew Shuman on the 2 min LF during the morning hours? I have not heard it at once. Perhaps this may explain:

Hi Victor,

 

There is no reasoning for that song to miss the 2 minute locals – it is just the luck of the draw. The new Sourcebook plays through the entire set of 10 songs in order, then re-shuffles and plays them in order again.  The old sourcebook re-picked from the pool of 10 songs for every local, so the same track would often repeat back to back.     

 

Each song only plays about 2 or 3 times every night, and since there are fewer 2 minute locals during prime time (the :28 and :58s in Prime are usually 1 minute).  Just for fun, our team pulled today’s programming log – and the song in question (02332 below) is playing at the 6:58 PM local. So you will be hearing it.

 

Thanks,

Melissa
