Such a buzzword provoking topic. :) A quick story: I have a friend, we know each other for a looong time. He likes epic music, big orchestral pieces and some heavier rock. We always get in a fight about Coldplay. I love them and think they're one of the most "emotional" and heartfelt bands in pop music. ...which is why he drives me crazy as everytime he hears them he goes: "They got their name right. Their music is so COLD! No emotions at all, awful." ...and that's why this topic is just a little odd. What seems warm and fuzzy to you might be sad for someone else.

But as my melodies go, they end up melancholic a lot of times. :)
"Earth is round right? Look at it from right angle and you'll be always on top of the world."
...but don't overdo it, because that's called being a d***k.

Pretty weird that he doesn't sense any emotion in Coldplay's music. I agree with you, and think that they are one of the most emotional bands in pop music.

The songs I write tend to be happy songs, so I go for fun bouncy sounding melodies. Of course when it's called for, I'll go more sad or aggressive depending if the song calls for it.
