The prompt

A tender R&B track blending orchestral pop with high energy and a swung feel at 113 BPM. The low end is electric bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a clap-layered snare and tight closed hats. Grand piano carries the harmony, block chords. The arrangement follows verse-chorus with a bridge. A warm male vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance. Subtle bitcrush adds texture, with a dub-style tape delay on the vocal. Mixed in a clean and spacious style, foregrounding melodic lead and vocal clarity, built on lush ninth and eleventh chords, leaving a calm and settled atmosphere.
