Step 1 of 7

Who is the song for?

Their first name or nickname, exactly as it should be sung.

No account needed. You read the lyrics for free before you pay. 14-day money-back guarantee.

Instead of the same birthday song everyone gets, give them one written about them: their name, their quirks, your shared memories. Answer a few questions and read and edit the lyrics for free. The sung song costs from $99 (€39.90 in the eurozone) and is usually ready within minutes of payment.

A birthday gift that is about them

A personalized birthday song works for every age: a playful kids’ song with the child’s name, an upbeat pop song for a best friend, a heartfelt ballad for Mom’s 60th. Because you write the story, it can only be about this one person.

You can also give it as a group: collect one memory from everyone, put them in the story, and share the finished link with all the guests.

What to write about the birthday person

Small, specific details work best:

  • A shared memory you both still laugh about.
  • Their hobbies, favourite food or a signature phrase.
  • Milestones: a new job, a move, a graduation, a new baby.
  • The age, if it is a round birthday.
  • What you wish them for the year ahead.

What a chorus can sound like

An example for Jake, who makes pancakes every Sunday:

Example
[Chorus] Happy birthday, Jake, here's a song just for you, for the pancakes on Sunday and the bad puns too. Another year older, a little more wise, with that same crooked grin and that spark in your eyes.

Example with an invented name. Your lyrics are written fresh from your answers and can be edited before recording.

How it works

From the first sentence to the finished song usually takes less than ten minutes. No account needed.

  1. Tell us about them

    Name, occasion and a few sentences about the person, plus style, voice and language. Takes two or three minutes.

  2. Read and edit the lyrics

    Rhymed lyrics with their name appear in seconds. Change any line before anything is recorded.

  3. Pay, then listen

    Happy with the lyrics? Pay once, and one to three minutes later your song is ready to play and download. Not happy? Free re-recording within 30 days, money back within 14 days.

Ways to surprise them

  • Play it at breakfast or right before the candles.
  • Send the share link at midnight so it is the first message of their birthday.
  • Play it at the party and hand out the lyrics so everyone sings the chorus.
  • Download the MP3 for a car, speaker or a burned CD if they do not use a smartphone.

Pricing

You pay once per song. No subscription, no hidden fees. You read the lyrics for free first; then you get a free re-recording for 30 days and a 14-day money-back guarantee.
