Your notes · for Dad

  • — taught me to drive in the little red car
  • — I stalled on the hill by the bakery, every time
  • — he never raised his voice once
  • — still calls me kiddo
  • — make it sound like his garage radio

Our draft · verse one

Little red car on the roadhill by the bakery,

I lost my waystalled it twice and you just smiled at me.

Easy on the clutch, darlingkiddo, give it one more try,

top of the worldhill, and you waved goodbye.

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

He has enough socks

And enough mugs, and enough tools he hasn’t opened. A personalized Father’s Day song is the one gift he doesn’t already own: a song about him, with the things he always says and the things he taught you in the lyrics. Tell us what he fixes, what he burns and what he repeats, and AI writes it into a song and sings it back to him.

What to put in a Father’s Day song

  • The thing he says every single time
  • What he taught you, and how it went
  • His chair, his mug or his spot on the sofa
  • The job he did for thirty years
  • The joke he thinks is still funny
  • What the grandchildren call him

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.

(the good kind)

  1. one

    Play it at the barbecue

    While he’s at the grill and can’t walk away.

  2. two

    Send it first thing

    If you can’t be there, the link lands before his coffee does.

  3. three

    Make it from all the kids

    One memory each, and he gets one song with all of you in it.

Questions people ask first.

My dad isn’t sentimental. Will he like a song?

Choose the funny mood. A song about his barbecue, his parking or his rules for the thermostat makes him laugh first, and the kind line at the end lands better for it.

Can I give a Father’s Day song to a grandfather, a stepdad or a father-in-law?

Yes. Tell us who he is to you and what you call him, and the song is written about him.

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.

Who’s next on the list?

Birthdays, weddings, Christmas morning, or an ordinary Tuesday. If there’s a person, there’s a song.
