Ho ho ho!

Christmas music is back on WRCH. Not sure when it started. I don't suppose anyone else in the market will go all-Christmas, but maybe a few "holiday" tunes will be added on WWYZ, WHCN and WTIC as Christmas approaches.

Downstate, WEZN is approximately 4/5ths Christmas -- every fourth to sixth song is of the ho-ho nature, big current/recent AC hits take up the other slots.

It is surprising that only WRCH goes all-Christmas in CT. In the Springfield Mass. market, which spills into CT, WMAS has also gone all holiday songs. But nobody in the New Haven-Bridgeport region does it, be it AC WEBE or Hot AC WEZN. Of course, WALK-FM from Long Island puts a good signal into that area.

(By the way, if you play a Christmas song every fifth or sixth song, that's being 1/5th or 1/6th Christmas.)

Oops! Actually, the Christmas songs are in the majority and the hits are in the minority. I just screwed up the sentence. And actually, the ratio has changed as the day has gone on. Now it seems to be nearly 50/50, but it's not every other song. It's one pop, one Christmas, two pop, three Christmas, one pop, two Christmas, etc. Not sure I've ever encountered that kind of Christmas-season music mix.
