Back to the original question, what defines real music? personally I like many different types of music, in my opinion Abba have never recorded a bad song, likewise with Neil Diamond, Meatloaf is a god, albeit on his last concert performance, a God who is past his best, there have been some brilliant Punk bands some still performing to this day, people mocked chumbawumba when they released 'I get knocked down' and passed them off as one hit wonders little realising that prior to that song they had released nine albums, Enya is another one that I could listen to all day along with Dido, Oasis have released some excellent records, I also like listening to Andrea Bocelli, and a lot of classical music.
And yes Dark side of the moon was the first Album I bought out of my first Royal Navy pay packet, so yes there is real music out there just open up yer ears, don't be pigeon holed into one category, my eldest brother is of the opinion that there is only classical and opera and all the rest is just noise but he is ignorant.
