101 songs featuring a melodica (that are not by Augustus Pablo)

2. Everything Counts by Depeche Mode

3. Cash Machine by Hard-Fi

4. Move Me - The Woodentops

5. In a lonely place - New Order (particularly the Studio B15 BBC Version)

6. Find the River - REM

We must've had a melodica thread before, because I remember recommending the tunes on Jack DeJohnette's 1968 debut album where he plays the melodica instead of drums.

7. She's In Parties - Bauhaus.

8. New Order - Love Vigilantes
9. Joy Division - Decades

Ah, here's the thread:

Best use of melodica in a song?

I think my favourite tune on the DeJohnette album is "Equipose". Lovely tenor sax playing by Bennie Maupin on that album too.

10. The Decemberists - Los Angeles I'm Yours

Yeah, I'll go with the songs I mentioned on that other thread:

11. Tortoise, "I Set My Face to the Hillside"
12. Sleater-Kinney, "A Quarter to Three"

that gang of four song

the one with the melodica

13. The New Pornographers -- My Rights Vs. Yours (I think it's this one; there's at least a few songs on Challengers that use the melodica).

Several by a fine little L.A. group from the mid-eighties called The Balancing Act.

14. "Franco's Fleet Street" - Mighty Ballistics Hi-Power

(here's a blast from the past for the Reading massive: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQGkQBb24XE )

15. Clinic - "The Return Of Evil Bill"

Oooh, good call.

16. Ghost Train - MB Hi-Power

Hi stew!

17. dust on the window - low

c'mon, best use of low song in a thread where low don't belong.

18. Blur - "Blue Jeans"

19. Julieta Venegas - "Algo está cambiando"

20.

Melodica featuring songs

Whatever number we are up to: Bob Marley -- Sun is Shining

I'm surprised this wasn't been mentioned. From the Movement thread, New Order's "Hurt":

26. Clinic, "Coda"

27. SFA, Run Christian Run.

More, please. I want to make a playlist.

28. Charlie Palmieiri - Tiene Sabor

It comes in late in the song. (Version from The Heavyweight only, not earlier charanga version.)

29. Tokyo Jihen - Marunochi Sadistic

(I'm sure I've mentioned these on the previous melodica thread/s.)

(Except melodica is only on this particular live version of the Tokyo Jihen song--I think--so might be hard to find for a playlist, assuming you wanted it.)

30. The Handsome Family - "Weightless Again"

31.
