I can sense some hostility in your answers, probably due to the following misunderstandings: - our point is not "we're great and you're lazy", but "we had originally very little ability, but we went far beyond what we thought we could do thanks to our approach" - the comments on lack of melody were ...

Well, here it is anyway, because you don't see the point but others could.
