Description

Being caught off guard by a song is a certain sort of pleasure (and possibly pain). Maybe you notice something in the lyrics you've never heard before, or maybe you fall in love with a song from a band you thought you had figured out. Whether you realize you were wrong—or just surprised, discombobulated, maybe even terrified—the unpredictability of music, and more importantly, your reaction to it, is what today's episode is all about.
