A custom song for your dad
He will tell you not to spend money on him — until he hears his own name in a chorus. Tell us the story and we write a custom song for your dad.
we already set this one to "for my dad"
Why a song gets past a man like your dad
It costs less than he can object to
His whole position is "don't spend money on me." A personalized song for your dad is $9.9 — small enough to slip past the objection, specific enough that he cannot pretend it is nothing.
It says what he jokes over
Some dads answer "I love you" with "who told you that?" A song is allowed to say the whole thing straight, and he is allowed to listen to it while pretending to fix something.
He will play it again
A real MP3 with cover art and a share page. He will claim he listened once. The play count on his phone says otherwise.
How it works
Three steps, and none of them require you to be musical.
Tell the story
Type it the way you would tell your sibling. The driving lessons, the bad puns, the year he never talks about — rough notes are exactly the right material.
Pick the sound
Choose a genre, a voice and a language. Read the lyrics we write back and change any line before a single note is recorded.
Give it to him
Two full takes, a cover image and a gift-ready page. Send the link, or play it in the garage and let him keep sanding whatever he is sanding.
What a chorus can sound like
You never said it, you just showed up, truck running in the cold outside the gym — every lesson was a Saturday you gave me, this is me driving one back to you.
What to tell us, if you want the song to actually sound like him
A custom song for a dad is built out of the things he thinks nobody kept track of. Skip "he worked hard" — every song says that. Write the 1994 Silverado he refuses to sell, the whistle that meant dinner, the way he still checks your tires before you drive home at thirty-five. One detail like that carries a whole verse, and the second he hears it the jokes stop working — he knows this was written about him.
Then pick a sound he would turn up on his own. Country handles gratitude in plain words a man can sit through; folk suits the quiet dad who says more with a nod than a speech; classic rock suits the one whose feelings have always lived at radio volume. A Father's Day song can be warm and a little funny; a retirement or a seventieth birthday can stand something slower. A personalized song for a dad lands hardest when it sounds like his records, not like a greeting card set to music.
the details that do the work
Things worth putting in
The thing he taught you that you still use every week and never mention.
What he did during the year the family had nothing.
The joke he has been telling at breakfast since the nineties.
The way he inspects your car before letting you drive home.
What you would thank him for if he ever let you finish the sentence.
Pick the style he would actually turn up
Tap one and we will start his song in that style.
Questions people ask first
How much does a custom song for a dad cost?
The preview is free and needs no card. Keeping the finished song — both full takes, a high-quality MP3, custom cover art and the gift page — is $9.9 once. Human songwriting services for the same gift typically start near $179.
Can it be ready in time for Father's Day?
Yes — even the morning of. Writing takes a few minutes and the song comes back in about the same, so a Father's Day song started over breakfast is playing before his coffee is done.
What if my dad laughs off anything emotional?
Then build the song the way he talks. Pick country or rock, keep the verses funny and specific — the lawn, the thermostat, the boat that never quite ran — and save one honest line for the end. He will laugh right up until that line gets him.
Can I change the lyrics before it is sung?
Yes. We write the lyrics first and show them to you. Edit any line, ask for a different version, and only then is it recorded. Every song also includes one free remake if the result is not right.
Can the song mention his truck, the lake, a specific year?
Anything you put in the story is material. Songs regularly name-check the 2003 fishing trip, the garage he never finishes organizing, and the exact model of truck — the more specific, the less he can pretend it is about someone else.
What languages and voices are available?
Songs can be sung in 40+ languages, with a male or female voice — your call. If he raised you on Johnny Cash, a low male voice will sound like it came off his own shelf; and the song can be sung in the language he thinks in.
