The phrase “music to your ears” is an expression that means you feel really happy when you hear something.

Although it has the word “music” in the expression, it’s not about hearing a song or a pleasant sound. It’s about hearing information that makes you happy.

So, when you get good news or hear something nice, you can say, “That’s music to my ears!” It shows that you are happy and relieved.

You might be feeling bad if you can’t get the recommended 7-9 hours of sleep per night. But here’s some news that might be music to your ears: consistency of sleep is just as important as amount. So if you can’t get 7-9 hours, at least make your 6 hours consistent, and you can enjoy many of the same benefits. That should be music to your ears if you can’t get the full 7-9 hours.
