CHWE-FM is a CHR/Top 40 station branded as Energy 106. The station broadcasts from 520 Corydon Avenue in Winnipeg, Manitoba at 106.1 FM with sister stations CKJS and 100.7 The Jewel.
CHWE-FM primarily competes with 103.1 Virgin Radio.
On May 8, 2009, Evanov Communications was granted approval by the CRTC to launch a new Winnipeg radio station on the 106.1 FM frequency. At first it was rumored that the company was going to launch another "Jewel" radio station (similar to CKDX-FM and various other stations around Ontario) as the station was registered as CFJL-FM.
On June 8, 2011, the station began testing its signal by playing non-stop commercial free music with a new music genre each week. Listeners could email the radio station to report any signal interruptions and suggest the genre of music that they wanted it to play before it launched on July 29.
On July 29, 2011 at 12pm, CFJL-FM launched with a CHR/Top 40 format as "Energy 106 - Winnipeg's New #1 Hit Music Station" playing 10,000 commercial free songs in a row. The first song played on Energy 106 was "Give Me Everything" by Pitbull featuring Ne-Yo, Afrojack and Nayer. Starting on October 14, Energy 106 began broadcasting live club music from local Winnipeg nightclubs Friday and Saturday nights. On October 19, the station added a full-time airstaff.
Sexy words
(Sexy words)
Don't mean that much to me
'Cause I've heard just about everything
That a man could ever say to me
To make me stay, now I need more
So don't bring me roses, bring me the truth
Don't buy me diamonds 'cause that just won't do
Material things I could buy myself if I really want to
I need something special, I need something new
Just give me you
Spare me the parts
(Spare me the parts)
When you shower me with gifts
Don't send me cards no box of chocolates
And don't promise me the world
I'm not that type of girl that needs that to feel complete
So don't bring me roses, bring me the truth
And don't buy me diamonds 'cause that just won't do
Material things I could buy myself if I really want to
I need something special, I need something new
Just give me you, just give me you
Things on this world don't mean that much to me
I need your heart and I need honesty
If all you got is flashiness
Then please turn around and leave
So don't bring me roses, bring me the truth
Don't buy me diamonds 'cause that just won't do
Material things I could buy myself if I really want to
I need something special, I need something new
So don't bring me roses, bring me the truth
Don't buy me diamonds 'cause that just won't do
Material things I could buy myself if I really want to
I need something special I need something new
Just give me you, just give me you
All I need is you, give me you
Sexy words don't mean that much to me
