The one gift not also on someone else's list.
A Christmas song made from the private jokes, which is the one category nothing in a shop can compete with.
We still call the spare room “the Portland hotel”
A detail like that one is what the whole song gets built on.
“Ray, you say, ‘We’ll figure it out’…”
Three things worth telling us
Not “kind and generous.” The small ones. Those are the lines people cry at.
01 —
The joke no one else gets
We still call the spare room “the Portland hotel”
02 —
What she does without being asked
She warms up my car on winter mornings and never mentions it

What to include in a custom song
Same person, same story. The difference is how you say it.
01 —
Use their exact words
Always tells me to be careful
“Drive safe.” — every call, right before hanging up
A phrase they actually repeat almost always becomes the chorus. It earns the repetition, because they repeat it.
02 —
Small beats big
Supported me through everything
My third-grade drawing is still on the fridge
A summary is true about everyone. The small thing is true about one person.
03 —
Name it
Taught me to drive
Taught me to drive in the Kroger parking lot
A brand, a street, a time of day. Those are the lines people cry at.
Then we write from what you gave us and nothing else — no invented dates, places or events. Whoever hears this song knows what actually happened, and one made-up line breaks all of it.
A gift that writes back.
Other song gifts end when the music stops. Ours come with a page where they can reply — and we send their words straight to your inbox.
“…Saturday mornings under the old blue truck, you handed me the wrench and called it luck.”
I still have that wrench. Played it three times. Come by Sunday.
Questions people ask
Is it a Christmas song, or a song given at Christmas?
The second one. No sleigh bells and no snow unless you ask — it's a song about that person, which happens to be what's under the tree.
Can the whole family hear it on the day?
Send them the link when the moment comes — it opens straight to the song with the lyrics moving as it plays.
Can I hear it before she does?
Always. You hear the chorus free, edit any line you want, and nothing reaches her until you send the link yourself.
