WNKS, known on the air as Kiss 95.1, is a 100,000 watt radio station in Charlotte, North Carolina. It broadcasts at 95.1 MHz, and serves the Charlotte metropolitan area. On air programming consists of mainstream top 40 (CHR) music. The station is owned by Beasley Broadcast Group. The studios are located on South Boulevard in Charlotte's South End, while their transmitter is located in Dallas, North Carolina.
95.1 signed on in 1962 as WIST-FM with a beautiful music format, and was co-owned with WIST (AM 1240). In just a few years, WIST-FM flipped to oldies, one of the first ever in the format. SIS Radio, owners of 61 Big WAYS (610 AM), bought WIST-FM in 1972. That year, WIST-FM changed to progressive rock with the new letters WRNA, eventually becoming WROQ, and went by the moniker "95Q". Among the WROQ/WAYS DJs to become major celebrities were Robert Murphy (who went to greater fame in Chicago), and actor Jay Thomas, who went to KPWR in Los Angeles as the official host of "The Power 106 Morning Zoo". Larry Sprinkle, a WCNC-TV morning weather personality, also worked at the stations. The stations would simulcast in morning drive, while running separate programming the rest of the day. The progressive rock format would evolve into album-oriented rock in the early 1980s.
I need, I need your love like the flowers need the sun
To grow and reach the sky, let us try to be as one
I need to feel your love, I need you deep inside
Put me on your rocket ship and take me out of sight
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
I need, I need your love like the flowers need the sun
To grow and reach the sky, let us try to be as one
I need to feel your love, I need you deep inside
Put me on your rocket ship and take me out of sight
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
Yeah, visions break is the man that froze them solid
Getting my hands up in your pocket
Before the rocket ship that's rockin' (Rockin', rockin')
You're the Venus with the fly trap
Legs up, your eyes fat
You can chew on this like Trident
You can try this, then try that
Spectrals
It's the Haley's Comet in the bedroom
You pour sugar on this entity
As he promised you'll be blessed soon
Freedom
He gives you the energy of the gods
With the ménage-a-trois mossad
Till the applause
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
I see stars. Can you see them, too?
