I had no idea the Weather Channel actually had a guy like Eddie Murphy in the background of his forecasts . . . or that it had ripped his vocal tracks out for them.
I was barely out of Kindergarten, but I know it was a giant hit of the time. But that's kind of what I meant. It's just hard to reconcile such a mainstream song being used in such an old LF. When I think of popular music being used in LF's, I think of LF's from the last 10-15 years. Not from 1986. Like I said, I know it wasn't unheard of for them to use pop music, but was this an anomaly or more common than I realize?
I Believe This Was A Video Clip Of The Weather Channel's Local Forecast For The New York Metro Area, New York From Late Sunday Afternoon, June 29, 1986.
I know that popular music wasn't unheard of in classic LF's, particularly instrumentals like this one, but this sounds downright mainstream. LOL
Well the vocal version did reach #2 on the Top 100 chart.

Ayo party all the tine
Who's listening in 2023 and thinks the 80s was the best decade of music EVER??
no question, the 80s were indeed the epitome of human evolution ....
@@vap0rland The absolute best! So many things and important inventions created that decade!!
I don't know about it being common, but it has happened a few times.
Wow, nothing gets by you.

I wasn't even in Kindergarten, and wouldn't be for another year.
