LYRIC HIGHLIGHTS
You taught me something, yeah
Freedom is ours
It was you who taught me living is
Togetherness, togetherness, togetherness
GIANT begins with Rag’n Bone’s almost gospel-like vocals behind a powerful combination of guitar and piano that resembles a chamber organ. Combine those elements with a chorus that features Calvin’s signature production style, soft horns, and choir hooks. The primary message of the song unveils a man who strengthens himself to lift up his partner or friend and carry the weight of the world on his shoulders, as only a giant can do.
Welcome to the beginning of Music you can truly WIN to.
