Tonight’s featured artist says he has been told by more than one person that his songs have helped someone wake up from a coma. Think you know who our miracle worker might be??

In an interview with NPR it was Tom Petty who marveled at the effects of his music on people saying:

" Music is a real magic: It affects human beings, it can heal, it can do wonderful things. I've had two people contact me in my life about coming out of comas to their family playing a song to them of mine, that they had liked before they were injured. They credited the song having something to do with that. I find that fascinating. A lot of people have told me, "This music got me through a really hard time," and I can relate to that.
