Melody

(Read only, anymore; sorry.)
Short version of rules
Without using a search engine to find one, write down at least eight words of a song containing the word (or the topic, if it's a general topic).
If it's the newest word, play once, and wait for another player to play before you go again.
On older words, you can play over and over without waiting!

In my heart there rings a melody,
There rings a melody with heaven's harmony
old-timey hymn
Whatever happened to melody?
Sweet, old fashioned melody?
Ribbons and roses
And romance and rhyme
And songs about two hearts
In three-quarter time
Whatever happened to just holding hands
'Neath the old apple tree?
Why aren't there heroes
Like yesterday's heroes?
And whatever happened to melody?
(Ray Jessell)
Whenever you're near I hear a symphony
A tender melody
The Supremes
Yes it's only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But oh, it wouldn't be make believe if you believed in me
Without your love it's a honky tonk parade
Without your love it's a melody played in in a penny arcade
"It's only a Paper Moon"
Ella Fitzgerald sings it
I put the words and the melodies together
I am music
And I write the songs
Barry Manilow
"Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing" has "melodious" in it. It's running through my head like a jumble of my whole childhood.
Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above
Good. Now I can clear my head. I'm going to look at the lyrics so I can live the rest of my day in peace.
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
Piano Man
Billy Joel
You're the melody
Of a symphony
By Strauss
"You're the Top" by Cole Porter
and lose the beauty of the melody
Until it sounds just like a symphony
Rock and Roll Music
The Beatles did it, the Beach Boys did it, and it was originally somebody else's (Chuck Berry?)
I don't want to live
in a world without melody
Sometimes the rhythmic din
of society is too much for me
Bad Religion
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can?
Well whoever it was, I'm a fan.
ABBA, "Thank you for the music"
We're Melody and Harmony
And Harmony and Melody
And everything we say and do
Is sweet, just like our song
-from a "Kids Praise" church musical starring Psalty the Singing Songbook (M & H have a brother named Rhythm, too, and I racked my brain trying to think of his song for that word. I concluded he doesn't have one--he just plays drums. :-D)
Rock a bye your baby
With a Dixie melody
When you croon
Croon a tune
From the heart of Dixie
(Lewis/Young/Schwartz, best remembered as sung by Al Jolson)
Our romance won't end on a sorrowful note
Though by tomorrow you're gone
The song is ending but as the songwriter wrote
The melody lingers on
"They can't take that away from me"
Hey, mr. melody, you're on my mind constantly, and I think of you the whole day long.
Mr Melody by Natalie Cole
Won't you play a simple melody
Like my mother sang to me?
One with good old-fashioned harmony
Play a simple melody.
(Berlin)
Deep within my heart lies a melody
A song of old San Antone
Bob Willis and the Texas Playboys
