“Boring DJs be very afraid: Gareth Emery is about to kick your arse”. So said Mixmag, when in 2002, they took the bold step of predicting that a virtually unknown 22 year-old would rise to become a major dance music star. However, six years later, it’s likely that even their expectations have been well surpassed. His current tour diary reads like the departure board at London’s Heathrow Airport. Desert island raves in Indonesia and snow-drenched mountains in Vancouver sit alongside major global events like San Francisco’s iconic Love Fest and Holland’s 30,000 strong Trance Energy. The likes of Asian superclub Zouk and Bondi Beach in Sydney complete the picture: in short, you’ll find Gareth at a mouth-watering, hand-picked selection of the planet’s coolest clubs and events, including UK super brands like Ministry of Sound and Gatecrasher.
When not on tour, he’s kept rakishly busy in his Cambridgeshire studio as one of the scene’s most in-demand producers and remixes. If you’re not familiar with anthems like ‘More Than Anything’, ‘Formentera What’ or his seminal classic ‘Mistral’, you’re probably a little out of touch with the modern dance scene, but suffice to say that Tiesto, Oakenfold, Ferry Corsten and Judge Jules are all big fans, and Paul van Dyk and Armin van Buuren liked his work so much that they both commissioned him to work on their respective labels (Vandit / Armind). However, the majority of his music is still released on his Five AM imprint, (described by DJ Mag as ‘the most consistent trance label in the world’), where he’s a co-owner and A&R. Whatever the label, one thing that’s clear is that Gareth Emery stamps his hallmark of quality on a record, people listen.
Always ahead of the game, Gareth was the one of the first leading DJs to embrace podcasting when he started his fortnightly radio show The Gareth Emery Podcast in early 2006. The show become an overnight success, immediately becoming an essential download for savvy dance music fans, and its widely imitated format has since helped to explode the popularity of dance music podcasts. It was also nominated for a Miami WMC IDMA Award for ‘Best Podcast’ along with Roger Sanchez and Pete Tong in 2007.
Although he always ranked well in the annual DJ Mag Top 100 DJs poll, he became cynical about the amount of advertising and self-promotion that DJs put into it, and in 2013 asked fans not to vote for him.
Gareth haș worked with a number of collaborators and vocalists, including his sister Roxanne Emery.
you'll be ok
Gareth Emery Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And live is what I've done
Found the wonder of the night
Saw hope where there was none
But I know, the light could fade from my eyes
My plane could fall from the sky
The world could tell me, this is my time
I count my blessings every day
Had more than I deserve
Sing this song when I am gone
I'll be in every word
But I know, the light could fade from my eyes
My plane could fall from the sky
The world could tell me, this is my time
And if I should die here tonight
Darling, know that you saved my life
Felt your love every day
Not a thing I would change
And I know you'll be ok
And I know you'll be ok
And I know you'll be ok
And if I should die here tonight
Darling, know that you saved my life
And if I should die here tonight
Darling, darling
And if I should die here tonight
Darling, know that you saved my life
Felt your love every day
Not a thing I would change
And I know you'll be ok

I was made to live this life
I was created to experience this world
And live is what I've done
And I have truly lived
Found the wonder of the night
Discovered the magic of the night sky
Saw hope where there was none
Discovered hope in seemingly hopeless situations
But I know, the light could fade from my eyes
Although I've had a fulfilling life, the possibility of losing everything still exists
My plane could fall from the sky
I could suddenly lose my life due to unforeseen circumstances
The world could tell me, this is my time
The world could determine that it's time for me to pass away
I count my blessings every day
I remember to be grateful for everything I have
Had more than I deserve
I've been given more than what I feel I deserve
Sing this song when I am gone
When I pass away, let this song be a reminder of the love I had for life
I'll be in every word
I will live on through the lyrics and memory of this song
And if I should die here tonight
If I were to die suddenly and unexpectedly
Darling, know that you saved my life
You gave my life a greater meaning and purpose
Felt your love every day
I experienced your love and support every day of my life
Not a thing I would change
I wouldn't change a single thing about my life, because you were a part of it
And I know you'll be ok
Even if I'm no longer here, I trust that you'll find a way to be okay
And I know you'll be ok
I'm confident that you'll eventually find peace and happiness
And I know you'll be ok
I trust that you'll have the strength to move on without me
And if I should die here tonight
If I were to suddenly pass away
Darling, darling
My love for you is immeasurable
And if I should die here tonight
If I were to suddenly pass away
Darling, know that you saved my life
I'm grateful for the life you've given me, and for the impact you've made on me
Felt your love every day
I experienced your love and support every single day
Not a thing I would change
I wouldn't want to change anything about the life we've shared together
And I know you'll be ok
I have faith that you'll eventually find happiness, even if I'm no longer there to share it with you

Stop begging for likes and comments to drive traffic. Your comment means nothing now.
@O1sson
@@randomcomment1105 damn right
@O1sson
Asking for such cheap likes is a disgusting move from you. It puts the trance genre to shame. I thought trance fans were real enthusiasts.
