Allow me to help. Real music is classic music, eg "Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars". It also includes most rock, metal, punk, and blues/rockabilly. I hope that clarifies things a bit.

As for your original question, I get lost in a great novel - one that sweeps me away to Romantic adventure/excitement, like "The Mysteries of Udolpho", or one that has me continually asking myself "What in the hell is going on here!?", like "The Sound and the Fury" or "Wuthering Heights". Tempus fugit.
