I have an exceptional music box. I can put words inside it. But not all. Here are some of what this curious box admits:
- Relation
- Abomination
- Sofa
- Umbrella
- Antidote
- Gasoline
- Desire
Can you deduce which words my box admits?
You can suggest words in comments, if they are admitted by the box, I'll try to include them into the list as soon as I can.

I think your box likes
words that contain tonic sol-fa syllables.
Thus:
relation
abomination
sofa
umbrella
antidote
gasoline (I think you could also count "li", as a sharpened "la")
desire
