"Strange Magic"

I learned about half of the bass part in "Strange Magic" recently, and when I wrote it out in notation a few days ago, I discovered that the verses are seven measures long.  Usually, musical sections last an even-numbered amount of measures.  That the verses in "Strange Magic" last an odd-numbered amount is a musical element of that "strange[ness]."

"On the Run"

I'm not sure of the specific notes, but "away" in the line "But they just won't go away" in "On the Run" is sung with a melisma, so while it's negated, there's a sense of movement.  The "around"s and "away" in the coda ("Woman, I gotta move around / Woman, I gotta get away / Woman, I gotta move around") also have this, and - as I noted before - those vocal articulations seem to owe something to Buddy Holly.

"Midnight Blue"

In "Midnight Blue," there's a recurring synth phrase something like:

Almost in between the two sections of this phrase, there's a vocoder part singing, "Midnight blue."  It's conspicuously absent, however, during the synth phrase beginning at ~2:02.  This is right after the verse with the line "I count the words that I am never gonna say," so I think the vocoder is intentionally left out there in order to reflect that specific line.

I also noticed that the three syllables of "ev'rything" in the line "Ev'rything's midnight blue" are sung to different pitches (F D Bb), giving a sense of breadth.

"Sweet Is the Night"

In the line "Ev'rything is alright, alright" in "Sweet Is the Night," both "al-"s of those "alright"s are sung with a melisma (the articulations are different, but I can't figure out the specific notes), musically giving a sense of entirety.

"Summer and Lightning"

In the first section of:

Here it comes again
It's all around me
It must be magic
Yeah, yeah, yeah

in "Summer and Lightning," the vocal tracks are panned hard left and hard right.  This feature of the mix provides a sense of being surrounded and portrays the line "It's all around me."

"Steppin' Out"

In the line "I'm movin' on" in "Steppin' Out," the "on" is sung with a melisma (F# G# F#), musically giving a sense of movement, whether literal or metaphorical.

"Turn to Stone"

In "Turn to Stone," "more" in the line "The lights don't shine no more" in the backing vocals is sung with a glissando (I think it's E~C#~E), so while it's negated, there's a sense of continuation.

"Julie Don't Live Here"

In the repeated line "Julie don't live here anymore" in "Julie Don't Live Here," the "-more"s are sung with two different melismas (first D# C# and then C# D# C# B).  While it's negated, this articulation gives a sense of continuation.

"The Lights Go Down"

I found a few significant melismas in "The Lights Go Down."  "On" in the line "But I gotta carry on" is sung to the notes E D C for a sense of continuation.  I think "around" in the next line ("When you ain't around") is sung to the notes D D E D C, which - while negated - musically gives a sense of constant presence.  In the line " All your dreams have blown away," "dreams" is sung to the notes A G, giving a sense of amount (for "all").  "Proud" in the line "Lonely but tryin' to be so proud" is sung to the notes G B A for a sense of degree (for that "so").  In the line "The lights go down," both "lights" (F E) and "down" (E D C) are sung with melismas to give a sense of that "go[ing] down."

"Rain Is Falling"

I listened to Time a couple days ago and noticed a few small things.

I'm not completely sure of my transcription, but in the line "With their brand new time transporter, they'll think maybe I fought to get away" in "Rain Is Falling," "away" is sung with a melisma (E E B C#), musically giving a sense of movement.

"One Summer Dream"

In the line "Though it hurts me so" near the beginning of "One Summer Dream," "so" is sung with a melisma (E D), musically giving a sense of degree.

"Strange Magic"

I listened to Face the Music yester-day and noticed a couple small features.  In "Strange Magic," "high" in the line "You fly so high" is sung with a melisma (A G E), musically giving a sense of degree (for "so").
