I do.  When my melodies are fully crafted, then people should be able to understand the melodies I'm trying to convey.

 
I don't think I've ever read a more profound statement.

 But, if it's the latter, then I need to fully craft the melody so that people can HEAR it.

Simples.

Love it.  I can't believe you guys are still at this.

Wow. The music I just listened to sounded incredibly like what my 3 year old Granddaughter did when she spent the day in my little studio and we played and recorded with the Roland A-300 Pro. We had so much fun
 
Kanye West comes to mind
 
That was a lot of reading. 
I'm kinda speechless
If I posted songs with this mindset I would have 10,000 songs in souncloud
the shallow concept of music today
why do I play?
this upsets me. I need to be alone for awhile
 
 
 
 
 

Actually, listen to these recent, revised melodies of mine which have chords to go along with them.  Hopefully, you can understand the melodies I'm trying to convey.  If not, that's fine.  I know I can understand good, catchy melodies other people have made and presented in the format I have presented them.  So, hopefully, you can understand, too:

OK who's alter ego is this?
 
No one says this stuff for real.  Holy cheese and crackers.

I've just realized that I have been going about this completely wrong all these years. I didn't know that I was supposed to proclaim myself Greatness.

All those snippets have the same feel to them, and there's nothing 'dark' or 'dramatic' about the first two.
 
To me, they sound like incidental music in a cheerful young kids TV show.

Then clearly, you did not get the melodies I was trying to convey.  That's fine.  Also, they're not cheerful tunes (except the motivational one because that one is in the key of C Major).  The 1st two tunes have black keys.  So, they are in a different key which makes them heavy and dark.

What if you play the notes C, E, G, & B flat......would that make it 'heavy & dark'?

My point is, the motivational tune is the cheerful one and the other two aren't.
