80s power ballad Suno prompt

Style

80s power ballad, soaring electric guitar solo, big gated drums, synth pads, emotional male vocals, arena lighters up, 72 BPM

Exclude styles

rap, lo-fi

Why it's written this way

Slow tempo + huge drums + a guitar solo is the arena-ballad formula. "Lighters up" pushes it bigger.

Change one thing

• Swap "male" for "female" for a big-hair duet feel.
• Add "key change in the last chorus".

Music video look

Wind machine, smoke and backlight on a stage, slow push-ins.
