Can’t Lose My Bestie

Pop ballad with a mid-tempo pulse, gentle fingerpicked guitar in verses, warm sub bass and brushed drums building into a lift on the chorus; pre-chorus opens with stacked harmonies and a rising pad, chorus blooms with full drums, handclaps, and a singable group hook. Lead vocal stays intimate and close-mic in verses, doubled on key lines, with airy ad-libs and soft delay throws on the hook words. Ear candy: reversed piano swells into the chorus, sparkly chimes between lines, final chorus lifts with a short string rise. Mix is bright, warm, and radio-polished with emotional front-and-center vocals.
