And even then you have to leave it to others to determine whether your work has any merit or not. That's for the audience to decide - not you. Finish what you started. A half-baked idea is no good to anyone. You have to see it through and that takes work. Lots of it.
You say that this melody is great and has lots of potential and then you talk about 'if you decide to finish it'. Surely if you think it has lots of potential then you would finish it??!!??
Talk is cheap. Actions speak louder than words. I can't comment on the music until I hear the finished product.
'They lack appreciation and that's what blinds them' ??!!?? - You're wrong here. They appreciate good music and that's what makes them decide what is good and what is not. If someone does not like your music that does not automatically mean they lack appreciation. In fact quite the opposite. It means they are discerning. If someone likes your music they like it. Pure and simple. If they don't, they don't. That's life. Stop talking up your music and finish something. Then let the audience decide. And LISTEN when they respond.
I will finish it then. I was just eager to share it now because I thought there was the possibility that people would realize the power and greatness this melody has. I see that's not the case and I must fully craft this melody so that said greatness becomes realized. Lastly, there are people who don't appreciate good music. For example, some people would say Michael Jacskon's music isn't that good because some of his melodies are too simplistic. I think they are great and some people just can't appreciate his music. Many people do appreciate his music though. The same idea applies to the Super Mario theme song. Some people would say it's dull and repetitive while I think it's great and catchy. So, the audience isn't always right and discerning as you say they are.
