Today's piece of vocabulary is "to strike a chord", which means to cause someone to feel sympathy, emotion, or enthusiasm. For instance,
"the issue of food safety strikes a chord with almost everyone"

Don't forget that "strike" is an irregular verb, so in the past tense this becomes "struck", as in "your speech really struck a chord with me".

人（ひと）をさそうとき

To kick-start this series, I cover one of my all-time favourite songs. I first heard this piece in the TV show Mr. Robot and it opened up a whole world of blues and folk music for me. 

It's full of cultural references, regionalisms, metaphors and interestingly, even a few grammatical errors--I'll tell you why they were included! 

Angel From Montgomery has been covered by many artists, but in this episode we listen to & explore the original 1971 version by John Prine.
