It's called your mental sketchpad. You've got a limited audio and limited visual processing capability. It's the reason why powerpoints fail to communicate ideas when both text and identical verbal instructions are given, and why verbal communications with associated pictures actually communicate the idea better. We're actually working on a long term project with researchers at Berkley right now concerning human processing.

Music is for moments. Words interfere with those. When dialogue is being spoken music should usually take a backseat, with some exceptions.

This is actually very pertinent to the current field of online education.
