All the bands above to me are quite stereotypical rock, but maybe a good introduction to the rock genre.

Check out an Australian band called Something For Kate - absolutely LOVE this band. Also along with the singer Paul Dempsey's solo stuff.

Again maybe slightly heavier than the OP is looking for, you can't go wrong with a bit of Nightwish (you can always fast forward the heavier riffy tracks). Most of their albums feature some beautiful ballads and melodic sections, for example Nemo, Creek Mary and Ghost Love Score on "Once" and lots of tracks on their latest album, particularly towards the end.

Probably rock in its softest sense but your thread title reminds me of Out of the Blue by Electric Light Orchestra. Well worth a listen.
