How do I make a custom song for someone?
To make a custom song, say who it is for, the occasion and the story: how you met, a few memories, what you love about them. Read the lyrics written from it and change any line, choose a style and a voice, and the song is sung in a few minutes. Then download it or send it on a private gift page.
How to make a custom song in three steps
From a few sentences about the two of you to a personalized song you can give today.
Tell the story
Their name, up to 3 names in all, who they are to you and the occasion. Add how you met, a few memories and the words you want sung. Write it in your own language.
Read the lyrics and change any line
Lyrics are written from your story for 1 credit, counted toward the song. Change a word, a line or the title until it sounds like you, or write them again.
Hear the song and give it
Pick a style and a voice, and it is sung with their name in the chorus. Download it, or make a private gift page with your message.
Why make your custom song here
A personalized song gift should sound like your story and carry their name. Everything here is built around those two things.
A song from your own story
The form asks what a songwriter would: who they are to you, how you met, the small details, what you love about them, and anything not to mention. The lyrics keep your facts as you gave them and put their name where a chorus can carry it.
You read every line first
The lyrics come to you first. Change any line, the title or the order, or write them again. The song is sung from the words you leave, so the song says what you meant.
Lyrics that follow the song
The lyrics play along with the song: each line lights up as it is sung, in the studio and on the gift page, so they can follow every word you wrote for them.
Say it like they say it
If a name is easy to read wrong, add how to say it: Siobhan as "Shi-vawn", Aoife as "Ee-fa". The singer gets that sound, and the lyrics and gift page still show the name as it is written.
A private gift page to send
Make a link that plays the song with its lyrics and your message. The person you send it to opens it on any phone without signing up, and you can turn the link off whenever you like.
Ends when the singing ends
Songs made from short lyrics sometimes run on as music for a minute after the singing. The player skips long instrumental stretches, and a shorter version downloads with them taken out and a gentle fade at the end.
Custom song examples, made from a story
Each song here was made in the studio from the form on its card: the names, who it was for and the story. Play one, and start yours from it to keep its style.
Custom song guide: from your story to a song they keep
How to tell your story for a custom song
A personalized song is only as personal as the details you give. Write the way you would talk to a friend: where you met, the joke only you two get, the thing they always say, the trip you still talk about. Two or three real details make a better song than ten general ones.
Say what you love about them in plain words. Plain words are enough; the lyrics turn them into lines that sing.
- 1Who it is for and what they are to you.
- 2How you met, or what you have been through together.
- 3Two or three memories with a place, a name or an object in them.
- 4Words you want sung exactly, and anything to leave out.
Leave out anything you would not want read aloud at a party. A gift song gets played for other people.
A custom song for your wife or husband
A custom song for your wife works best with one moment at its center: the night you met, the first apartment, the day the kids were born. Name the place and one small detail, and say what you would tell her if you could say only one thing.
For a husband, the same holds. Pick a style he already loves, a warm acoustic song or a slow country ballad, and let the chorus carry his name and the line you most want him to hear.
Wedding and anniversary songs
For a wedding, a song can be the first dance, a gift for your partner at the reception, or a song from the family to the couple. Choose a slow style, ballad or acoustic, and keep the story to how you met and the promise you are making.
An anniversary song looks back: how many years, the places you have lived, what has changed and what has not. The number of years and one shared memory make the chorus.
A personalized song gift for mom or dad
For a parent, write the things they did that you still remember: the songs in the car, the Sunday meal, the advice you ignored and then followed. A personalized song gift for mom on her birthday or Mother’s Day can be sung in her own language, even if you write the story in yours.
Grandparents, teachers and friends work the same way: one or two real memories and a clear thank you.
Getting names right in a custom song
Write each name as it is spelled, and if it is easy to say wrong, add how to say it. It is sung with the spelling you give for the sound, and shows the real name everywhere else.
Listen to the song before you send it. If you would like a name sung differently, change its line or how to say it, and make another version.
