Roxy Music is a really good call. Song For Europe has a gorgeous melody I think.

Other songs I can think of with great melodies:

David Bowie - Five Years
The Beach Boys - Disney Girls
Big Star - Ballad of El Goodo
The Beatles - We Can Work it Out
The Bangles - Going Down to Liverpool
The Band - The Weight

(Something about melody and the letter B, evidently)

I kind of hear a similar vibe sometimes with sunday morning and son of a gun and even mollys lips.

But hell yes to those two.
