Suno prompt
A tender gospel track blending orchestral pop with high energy and a swung feel at 120 BPM. The low end is upright bass playing root-note anchored, under an acoustic drum kit with a tight and dry snare and sparse dark cymbals. Grand piano carries the harmony, block chords. The arrangement follows intro-verse-chorus-outro. A full-voiced female vocal delivers a smooth and melismatic performance, joined by a choral group vocal layered in close harmony. Analog hiss adds texture, with a wide stereo chorus on the vocal. Mixed in a clean and spacious style, foregrounding harmonic warmth and vocal clarity, built on chromatic and shifting chords, leaving a calm and settled atmosphere.
Paste this into Suno's style field. It describes the sound only — adjust anything that does not match what you are after.
