About This Quote

When you listen to the radio you can hear the same songs over and over again. I used to listen to the radio all the time when I was younger, sometimes even driving with the radio on. Whenever I heard a song I liked, my mom would stop us so that I could listen to it again. She said that she wanted me to know all of my favorite music.

It is true that you can hear the same songs on your radio over and over again, but this is not the only thing that is available. There are so many different things out there that I never knew existed before, and this is what really makes life exciting.
