" Going back a ways - I can hear the sound of Madonna's HUGE hit, "Like a Virgin" in my head. But I can't sing it. It's not a tune."
it's not a very complicated melody so, i can't imagine why you would have trouble.
" And pop singers whom I know can sing, like Celine Dion or Whitney Houston, the way they choose to sing, I can't hear the tune - though no doubt if I saw the sheet music, there's melody there."
in both these statements, i don't think you are trying to say that you have a problem with being able to match pitch. i'm thinking you find the melodies mentioned to be so unmemorable, you can't even remember them to sing them. (is that close?) or, it could be that the 'harmonic atmosphere' is too foreign to you and you can't get a frame of reference.
