Gmail Settings question

Options
Quick question.

When I go into Gmail > Settings > My Email Address > Manage Notifications > Importance

I have the following options

Urgent - make sound and pop-up on screen

High - Make Sound

Medium - No sound

Low - no sound or visual interuption

I don't really understand what it means by urgent, high, medium and low. I just want to get notifications for all my emails. Can anyone help?

    Set all to sound and / or popup or none , what I call urgent is none are urgent , people can send High/important etc and google has its own criteria, and your client/browser thinks they are right. Just check when you want is my theory or be bombarded with trash and get no notifications when what is important to you:D
