Mixing up the type of tunes that you listen to can be good for you. It allows for you to experience variety and come to appreciate a lot more of what's out in the world (as well as good talent). I enjoy so many different artists and genres that it is ridiculous. Moreover, the benefit to liking so much variety is that when someone names an artist or band, I most likely will be able to say "I know them and they're awesome!" Okay, maybe not in those words, but you get the idea. I will be in-the-know. In response to me saying whatever it is that I do is surprise from most people (shocker!). It feels good to be able to make people feel that way, in an odd way.

Variety is what led me to write Saturday Tunes on Norah Jones and The Summer Set. The former is a singer-songwriter artist, and the latter is a a pop-rock band. I only learned of Norah Jones about a year ago. I heard her famous song 'Come Away With Me' on a movie that I watched {I cannot remember what it was}. Ever since then, I have fallen hard for her voice. It is so light and beautiful. The Summer Set is a whole other thing. Last summer, I was on a band-finding-binge. It was quite hilarious, though; you should have seen how I was all "omg, how did I never hear of this band before, yada-yada-ya!" Well, that is the backstory on how I found The Summer Set. Have I regretted it? Psssh, no way! Their music is really amazing, and it is something that I could dance to all. night. long.
