I listened to
Friends/20/20 yester-day and noticed a couple things. In the line "Maybe that's why when we're all alone" in "I Can Hear Music," "alone" is sung with a melisma (F# A B A), musically giving a sense of degree (for "all"). I referenced the version by the Ronettes, and while the rhythm is a bit different, this melisma is present there too.
