"Golden Slumbers," "Carry That Weight," and "The End", tracks from The Beatles’ Abbey Road album, were the final tunes to be played on the station.
After Program Director and morning disc jockey Michael Greene (formerly of WTIX) read the sign-off announcement, the station called it a day with "Her Majesty," the very last track from Abbey Road.
With WQUE concentrating on youthful listeners, WYLD-FM evolved into its current urban adult contemporary format.
[6] Clear Channel was the forerunner to today's owner, iHeartMedia, Inc. Until December 2013, WYLD-FM carried the syndicated Tom Joyner Morning Show.
Crosstown competitor KMEZ picked up Joyner, and WYLD-FM switched to carrying Steve Harvey in the morning, which formerly aired on WQUE.
