Okay, so there’s this melody stuck in my head for a new song. I sort of fell in love with it and want to make it into a new song. But, there’s this awkward feeling it might already exist out there. Can’t seem to recall any lyrics or an artist though.
How does one find out if a melody already exists? What if I subconsciously picked it up somewhere? Or worse: that it turns out to be a well known song? That would be quite embarrassing when presenting it. Arghhh.
Did any of you ever experienced this? How did you find out if "your" melody was already "taken"?
Where to look? Is there a place where all the melodies live?
