So, what's the most beautiful melody you've ever heard?
Can be any genre!

Another movie theme with a beautiful melody was done by Nino Rota:
 
 
For rock, just about any Moody Blues tune will do:

Dr. Zhivago and Romeo and Juliet themes - gorgeous (just re-watched and both made me cry).
 
Anything by the Moodies - lovely melodies.

For me the 40st symphony of Mozart, the first motif played by strings, you can put so much emotion in that piece.

The last few minutes of Richard Strauss's Death and Transfiguration tone poem; there is nothing quite like it!

There are so many .....my favorite might be this piece by Ralph Vaughan Williams....heartbreakingly beautiful.
 
But I also love 'Nights in White Satin' by the Moody Blues...and others by them.
I'm also a fan of many of the old romantic love song standards sung by Sinatra, Bennett, Streisand, etc.

My first thought was Nights in White Satin but instead I'll give something you've probably never heard before, unless you're Swedish of course.

Dream-like & nostalgic, Michel Legrand's beautiful 'Summer of 42' theme truly captures the romance of first-time love, tragedy, and coming-of-age -

Never heard a melody that made me cry, nor are there really any melodies nowadays that I still find captivating. Nor do I have one biggest favorite, as the practice of prioritizing things I love/like isn't something for me. 

Could be Ennio Morricone's "Chi Mai". Could be the melodies from Anathema's "Lost Child". Could be Durutti Column's "Never Known". Could be half of Mike Oldfield's solo from Robert Wyatt's "Little Red Robin Hood Hit The Road", which sounds like one long melody. Let's go with "Chi Mai" for now.
