I'm not too surprised that KVIL finally dropped Delilah. KVIL's playlist is waaay too extreme to even carry Delilah at all. How does Delilah even fit herself into "The 'LAME' New Sound of 1037 KVIL" positioning as "Best Variety...90s, 2k, and Today" for 6-7 months? Every night I'm driving home from school, listening to KVIL, I thought it's pretty crazy that Delilah had to identify her show on KVIL as "You're listening to Delilah, tonight, here on 1037 KVIL with Best Variety...90s, 2k, and Today!" (something like that) in her voice.
My mom likes Delilah a lot. Sometimes I like her show. I don't have an opinion for her show, really. On the other side, I have a very strong opinion of specifically which AC stations she's more likely to fit to based on how upbeat the music is or which decades of music they play from. Delilah would not fit with KVIL at all, even before KVIL's format retool in May 2013. OFC, Delilah would fit with KVIL back in 2010. KVIL really starts to freshen up their playlist since Fall 2011 and throughout 2012 (Cleveland's WDOK approach), which is why they came to the point they might as well dumped 1980s music altogether and retooled their AC format in May 2013.
I really think Delilah would fit more on AC's like WLYF/Miami, WMGF/Orlando, WLMG/New Orleans, and KOST/LA even though one of these stations have their very own special dedicated show like KOST with "Love Songs on the Coast" with Karen Sharp. WMGF used to have both Delilah and John Tesh. I really believe Delilah would fit with WMGF again based on their slight old-leaning AC music approach since 2012, but as we all know Cheap Channel wouldn't invest in something like that... I believe Delilah would fit "PERFECTLY" to WLYF based on their very old-leaning AC music approach. WLYF currently have John Tesh throughout the evening and night hours. It's funny, but I really thought John Tesh rather fits more on KVIL than WLYF whilst Delilah rather fits more on WLYF than any other AC's in the US.
