@rain... Heh. Yeah, ya'll are a good bunch and no matter what we end up getting some intelligent convos out of even the most ridiculous OPs. I'm no stranger to internet trolls so I always find it funny when they pop up here. I usually try to avoid them because I'm here to learn and don't want to look like a dink but I couldn't resist with this guy. Besides, it's been a fun distraction while I wait for the paint on one of my desks to dry.

Cheers, dude.

Like I said with my previous post, no negativity is intended from this topic and I am not being a troll of anysort.  I just want to know if this mental talent is as powerful as I feel it is (if it's something worth pursuing despite my lack of enjoyment, or that I should just move on with my life in doing what I do normally)?

Yet you've replied to that yourself saying that you wouldn't back down unless a scientist proves you wrong. So if indeed you aren't trolling, you're still chasing your tail.

Don't want to put in the work? Then move on with your life.

And seriously that is coming from someone who thinks EVERYONE should make music a part of their life. But you claim not to enjoy it, don't want to listen to anyone and have an ego that would make Malmsteen blush so really... take up pottery or bird watching or something. You're just wasting everybody's time.

I don't know why you would pursue something if you did not, "enjoy it."

Anyways, "anything is possible."


But right now, "I am so busy with stuff," that I will leave it there.  Peace

But is it absolutely scientifically impossible for someone who hasn't gained physical knowledge and experience in music to make powerful songs in their head (songs that would be worthy of a new movie trailer or something of such potential)?  If a scientist with a lot of knowledge of the human brain and such were to tell me that this is impossible and I am given absolute scientific proof, only then will I believe (I mean, I would still feel the way I do about my songs, but it would now be in a way that I am delusional and these feelings are false).

Well.
However you look at it.
Anyone can say they're a genius.
They can't really be challenged.

A difficult subject for sure.

Lots of us like to think we're OK at music.
Obviously some are more than that.
Absolutely brilliant, some of us.
Dynamite songs being written all the time...in our heads

Of course, this may be an illusion...
Fortunately,

Being quite used to dealing with these
Obfuscations we most

Laugh

Carry on,

Splitting our sides at the silliness.

Heh.

Actually in the original thread I was contemplating swiping the "DOOT DOOT DOOTs" and "CHALLA WALLAs" and making a funky mash up from the samples.

Maybe I still will when I have time. Could be an internet sensation.

 I just used my Scientific genius to build a machine to get those tunes out of Matt’s head. Just a few more tweaks to make... right now it's playing nothing but the Village People YMCA.
