IMO, the greatest aspects of this song isn't the melody; it's the genius arrangement, and her strong vocals.
This. If it weren't for the awesome heavy guitar and epic organs, I wouldn't like it even half as much. The actual melody isn't anything amazing; it's nothing real catchy or creative. But everything else about the song is near genius, hah. So it makes up for it, I think.
Like, this is one of those songs that I'll get the urge to listen to, and I'll just sit in wonder at the wonderful instruments used and such, and I'll enjoy just listening to her vocals (which are really good). I'll love it and love to listen to it because it's so different sounding, and because it has such an awesome feel (and probably because it has one of the best PVs in her discography, hah :O). But it won't be something I have on repeat for hours straight, because the actual song isn't mind-blowing.
