Definitely.
I love a song with a story, but even without that melodies and interesting use of instruments can bring tears to my eyes or give me goosebumps.
One that qualifies in multiple ways is XTC's The Last Balloon.
Specifically when the vocals fade into the horn, which works with the theme of the song and is also just haunting to me.
A big one for me is Oceanlab - Breaking Ties
Lots of history there with an ex... But it's all valid too (if that makes sense)
That's a great melody!
