Italian for me, followed by Spanish. French has to be the most overrated language in the world. Perhaps it's just me, but I've never seen the supposed "beauty" in it.
It's not only about vowels. In Russian language there are consonants which are pronounced lightly, without an effort. The emotional emphasis on words, the stress placement (which is not fixed) and the rhythm of the language is also unique, I'd say exotic to me.
Italian, French, Spanish, English are beautiful and "melodic", but Russian seems to be a versatile one. It sounds both rebellious and powerful as well as it could be airy and tender (especially in lyrical songs) depending on a situation.
It’s got to be one of the Latin derived languages. I’d personally go with Italian, Portuguese and Spanish. Incidentally, they also happen to be my favorite languages. English and French would come next.
Interestingly enough, I don’t think of English as a particularly melodic language, but it is one that has a great flow to it.
It also depends on who's speaking. I know lots of Italians who sound like the horse's ass, and an eloquently spoken German can sound melodic ... just for example.
Eloquently spoken German still doesn't sound melodic lol, but I can't get enough of German southern dialects - those sound so awesome to my ear)))
Swedish is definitely melodic, and Italian is Italian, even spoken by horse's ass))))
When it comes to Russian - ughmmm...
I guess some can consider it to be melodic. I personally always thought that phonetically it was close to Spanish ( NOT a melodic language if you ask me, ) but as it turned out - it resembles not Spanish, but European Portuguese. So go figure.

So it's not just me then. There are multiple times I've watched videos in Portuguese (Brazil) and mistook it for Russian at first.
All the Aboriginal languages - i.e. the Polynesian languages, the languages of all the indigenous native tribes of the Americas, the Inuit of the North American Arctic regions, the native Siberians, the Aborigines of Australia, the Maori of New Zealand, etc.
