i wasnt talking bout not singin melodies ... thats certainly very important most of the time :)
i meant that sometimes its enough (in an instrumental part or lets say in the backing part of a verse or something) if you dont play a specific melody over a part, but just let the chord progression speak for itself.
a lot of times you can "hear" a melody over a chord progression even tho there is none, but you add it yourself in your head. (or sometimes there is still a "shadow" of the vocal melody in your head which you then think you can hear over the chord progression)
now i know this is a difficult concept to describe, but i think its true
