Sara

Steph:  So Sara, when you go out to bars and stuff and see live music, do you like it if they’re playing their own music or do you like cover songs?

Sara:  Um, I actually like cover songs because then I usually know all the words. What about you?

Steph:  Yeah. Me, too actually. I really like it when they play a little of their own and then a few cover songs.

Sara:  Yeah. Well, especially when you’re dancing, it’s nice to have cover songs that are really fast, with a good beat that you know.

Steph:  That’s totally true. Yeah. Absolutely. Like, it’s almost like when people sing really popular songs at karaoke.

Sara:  Yeah. Exactly. And then everybody can kind of sing along with them and know all the words.

Steph:  Totally. It puts everyone in like a super good mood.

Sara:  Mmmhmm.

Steph:  That’s awesome.

Sara:  Definitely.
