Vocal melodies

Valrus:
Dear people who write songs where you sing actual notes: When you're coming up with melodies, how do you do it? Do you wing it and try different things until it sounds good or do you use notation? Do you do the chords first and then the melody or vice versa? Do you ever write a melody and then decide later that you need to scrap it completely and start over?

audacity:
Usually I do it by ear, and then go back and get technical to see if everything is all right.
It usually goes quicker that way, for me, and I'm usually more likely to be content with the end product.

ImRonBurgundy?:
I just yell.

audacity:
.. Your avatar is hypnotizing.

JimmyJazz:
I usually just come up with a melody that fits well with the music, and then I'll go over it to make it fits in the key of the song. Somestimes I'll become bored with the melody I'm using, so I always try and three different melody ideas for a song and pick the one I like best. The melody changes once I add more layers to a song as well.
