SiriusXM “Love” similar to “America’s Best Music” format

For those of you who like “America’s Best Music”, I’m curious if you’ve listened to the “Love” channel on SiriusXM lately. To me they sound just like the modern day version of ABM but with a larger playlist. The lady who does the “Love” station IDs even sounds like the same lady who voices ABM. What’s your opinion of this channel?

I no longer have Sirius/XM, but that could always change. What are some of the songs/artists you are hearing?

Thank you! That is about as close to America's Best Music as you can get. I wonder if it's available on the 'Free' tier of channels?

I just checked. No it’s not. That free plan is only for very few channels and it’s only available in specific new vehicles.
 
I remember people complained when standards were added to satisfy people who were upset about the loss of Escape.

However, they brought back Escape (mostly instrumentals).

This is better than what I remember haring at Dairy Queen.
 
I agree that Love does have a very similar mix. Back when it was positioned near the Sinatra channel, you could go back and forth between the two and have a reasonable facsimile. Also, The Bridge plays much of the same mellow rock from the 70s that makes up a big chunk of the ABM playlist these days.
