No birthday. No reason. That's the reason.
The gifts people remember rarely arrive on a scheduled day. Send one on a Wednesday.
Drove four hours the night I called, and never brought it up again
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 thing you never said thanks for
Drove four hours the night I called, and never brought it up again
02 —
A small ongoing kindness
Texts me the football score so I don't have to look
03 —
The nickname
Nobody else has ever called me Bear

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
Isn't a song weird with no occasion?
Less weird than on a birthday, when it competes with everything else on the table. With no occasion there's nothing to compare it to.
Do I have to say who it's from?
No. The song page shows a sender name you choose, and you can leave it off.
