James Gray - The Garage Soundv-Fi

Create a classic 2-step UK Garage track at 132 BPM, key D minor, with a late-’90s/early-’00s feel reminiscent of the UK garage scene. Drums should have a crisp swung groove (about 58–62% swing), tight kick, snappy rim/snare, skipping closed hats, and occasional shaker ghosts. Bass should be a warm organ/sub bass with short glide; bouncy, not wobble - keep it classy and clean. Keys should feature Rhodes/EP with maj7/min7 extensions; glossy and soulful. Strings should be a lush classical ensemble with legato pads, staccato accents, and a melodic counter-line that doubles the hook in the chorus and post-chorus. Include a 16-bar intro teasing the strings and a 16-bar outro. The arrangement should follow a classic UK garage style. Mix/FX should have a light vinyl texture, tasteful reverb, sidechain strings/pads slightly to the kick, and a bright but smooth top end. Include classic uk garage record rewind sample before the drop. Avoid heavy wobble, bro-bass, and overly modern EDM sounds.

I can see my whole world changing There's no need to live if I can't be with you What I did was wrong, I'm sorry Didn't know how much I really miss you I can see my whole world changing There's no need to live if I can't be with you What I did was wrong, I'm sorry Didn't know how much I really miss you
 I'll bring you flowers in the pouring rain Living without you is driving me insane I'll bring you flowers, I'll make your day The tears you cry, I'll dry them all away, away
 Just in case I don't make it home tonight Let me make love to you for the last time, baby Wanna cherish each moment like the last 'Cause baby, you're all that I have, so just in case

 Imagine if I told you that I want you (Mm-hmm) And imagine if it all came true Tell me, what would you do with me? Would you tell me that you feel the same? Imagine if I told you that I need you Would you say, "Baby, I need you too"? (I need you) No matter what you do, I know (I know) That you should be in love with me

 Heya, heya, heya, heya, hey I'm thinking about you, 
I'm a little love shy, baby Got to got to get together be strong 'Cause our love will be coming And I won't be love shy anymore 

 Why're you so afraid of love? Did somebody hurt you and break your heart Well, love's a gamble, sometimes lost, but you never give in, 'cause This time may be your time to win, to miss, it could be Crazy love, love I don't know what you'll do But I know that it's true, true Crazy love (Crazy)
