Sorry off-topic, but None of the Warner chappell/firstcom music songs u listed aired on WeatherNation. I been watching WN regularly since February 2014 (replacing TWC) and i dont recognize any of them. I say that since i am looking for some of the titles that are unknown.

Local Forecast / Re: General LF Discussion

« on: September 30, 2015, 04:46:34 PM »

I also noticed there were no autumn backgrounds for the satellite LF's.  The exception was at 7:08AM ET and 8:08AM ET, during AMHQ; Those two LF's had the autumn scenes. 

This screams apathy on the part of TWC.  These LF backgrounds are obviously in their library and would have cost them ZERO to implement.  For all the noise regarding cut backs of celebrity talent (Al Roker) to save money, simply using the change of seasons to add to the flavor of the programming seems to be a no brainer.

But - - having been a loyal viewer since the 1980's, I see the trend.  TWC will spend a heap of cash to bring in celebrities but will ignore the simple and free (no licensing required) things to make their channel more of a pleasure to watch.

I am a contemporary with ya, been a TWC fan since 1991, but since NBC took over and especially the last four years they have been total #$%$. maybe if they get rid of all longform like they said they would i might be interested again, but not betting on it

General Discussion / R.I.P. Wilton Felder

« on: September 28, 2015, 05:07:48 PM »

I recently learned that Wilton Felder passed away yesterday on my Facebook news feed, which I have several TWC musicians I am following. He is known to us long-time viewers for his song "Lillies on the Nile" from his Forever Always CD, one of my favorite songs on that Spring 1994 playlist. RIP Wilton, you will be missed

Programming and Graphics / Re: Sweeping Changes Coming: Champion Cancelled, Less Reality Shows

« on: September 16, 2015, 03:46:30 PM »

But if he's at all serious about this that would be awesome!! Jazz has been gone so long for me I forget the excitement that I had with the channel. I remember back in 7th grade I would constantly check weather.com/music for the new playlist. But since about 2013 I migrated away from jazz and with the vocals on TWC and going to a new high school everything I listen to mostly is adult alternative with the only instrumentals being Ryan Farish (hence explains the vocal test playlists I put out and my spotify playlists being pretty much all vocals since early 2014).

And I feel this is really disappointing that something great and something that made my childhood years fun had to end!  Now with the vocals hitting at a time where High School was just starting and the stress associated with it and the stupidity of immature kids and drama, God talk about a bad time to take away something I could have used to level it out.

I'm also angry because if TWC goes back to jazz, I will be really excited but those songs that they played years ago don't sound that great anymore  I would have to regain interest but I think that's the right way to go but overall I'm upset that I reached a point where I really could care less. Maybe 2015 will be the lucky year.

Also I am still surprised that I didn't know Jazz was gone until May 2012! I watched TWC almost daily during that time?

I adopted instrumental music as my music of choice in 1991, when i started watching TWC. I certainly didnt lose interest when TWC went to crap with the NBC takeover and the vocals on the LF's. If anything i love instrumental/jazz/new age more than ever, as this music has helped solidify my identity while at the same time losing interest in TWC altogether. I am thankful for 29 years of good LF music that TWC has played, and maybe, just maybe if all these changes pan out I might be a fan again.
