I spend a lot of time thinking about musicals; it seems to be a medium rife with contradictions. Some people love musicals and others hate them. Some musicals run in the West End for decades while some barely splutter onto the fringe. Some are hummable and others wouldn't dare.
I like to write tunes. By tunes I mean real hummable melodies. Some people scoff at this as if 'that's easy' or 'not exactly art', but I thoroughly disagree. Lots of songwriters write both music and lyrics, and I've given lyrics a go, but I like to stick to the music. In my opinion, my job is to serve a lyric. A great melody can carry a poor lyric, but a good lyric sure as hell ain't gonna carry a bad tune. When you combine both a great lyric and a great melody then you've hit the jackpot.
