Your notes · for my boyfriend

  • — first date, and the restaurant was closed
  • — closed on Mondays, of all things
  • — he wrapped his red scarf around me
  • — we shared one hot chocolate on the curb
  • — make it quiet, like the snow

Our draft · verse one

WelcomeClosed on Mondays, said the sign, wouldn’t you know,

you wrapped your armsred scarf round me in the snow.

One glass of winehot chocolate, two of us on the curb,

worst daytable in town, best night in the world.

Now it could only be about him.Fine. But it could be about anyone.

He says he doesn’t want anything

He says it every year, and every year you buy something he quietly returns. A personalized song is the gift he can’t return and didn’t see coming. Tell us how you met, what he’s terrible at and what he does when he thinks nobody is watching, and AI writes and sings an original song for your boyfriend, with his name and your inside jokes in the lyrics.

What to put in a song for your boyfriend

  • The first date, especially if it went wrong
  • The thing he cooks, and how it turns out
  • What he’s convinced he’s good at
  • The hoodie of his you’re wearing right now
  • The show you watch together and argue about
  • What he did that made you sure

Hear it. See it. Watch it.

Every song comes with its own cover photo. Add a music video made from your own photos.

This is a short sample. A finished song and video run 2.5 to 3 minutes.

    A link at midnight beats a text that says happy birthday.

Questions people ask first.

Will a song embarrass him?

Only as much as you want it to. You choose the tone, so it can be funny and teasing, quiet and sweet, or a bit of both. If he’s private, keep it for the two of you.

Can it be hip-hop, rock or country?

Yes. You pick the style of music, so the song sounds like something he already listens to.

How much does a personalized song cost?

It costs $24.99. We write and record five songs from your story, and you hear a 15-second preview of each for free. You pay once you’ve chosen the two you want to keep, and a third comes as a gift. Each song has its own cover. A music video is an optional add-on for $34.99.

What do I need to tell you?

A few details in plain words: who the song is for, the occasion, and the memories, phrases and inside jokes that make them who they are. You also choose the style of music.

How does the music video work?

The music video is an add-on for $34.99. You upload your photos, choose a tall video for phones or a wide one for the TV, and pick one of twelve styles, from pencil sketch to claymation. The photos are redrawn in that style, animated, and cut to the length of the song. It is ready 2 to 4 hours after you order, sometimes sooner.

Are the songs written by AI?

Yes. AI writes the lyrics from the details you give us and performs the song. What makes it personal is your story: the names, places and moments in the lyrics all come from you.

How long is a song?

A finished song runs 2.5 to 3 minutes, and so does the music video if you add one. The samples on this site are short clips of about 20 seconds.

We don’t write songs about love. We write songs about the restaurant that was closed.
