A 22-year-old coma patient in Guangzhou was woken from 10 days of stupor after a brain operation in February. Apparently the man， surnamed Ye， was woken by an overly cheerful guitarist whom the hospital had gotten to perform by his bedside. Okay， so while the hospital may be calling it “music therapy” and media outlet Southcn.com reported this as a happy news story， we here at TWOC remain skeptical. Apparently the song that woke Ye was sung in English and called “Every Morning You Greet Me.” Nobody wants to wake up to greet that. Nobody. Least of all someone who’d just been through brain surgery.
