Those two things come together, actually -when you really play the
melody following your ear, you don't need a familiar key since it
sounds the same in every key!

And as Chevy Chase would have said, if the movie "Caddyshack" was about music instead of golf:

"Be the melody Danny, be the melody!" ;)

Vocalize, visualize, internalize. If the tune has words, learn them!
