A Free Custom Birthday Song, Written About Your Friend

A good friend is family you picked. A song for your friend is a thank-you for that.

Tell us how you met, the trip or the night that sealed it, and the times they showed up when it mattered.

“We made this song for our Preacher. His eyes will be filled with tears on Sunday. Thank you for making such a perfect song.”

What comes with the free song

  • Original lyrics written from your answers, with the names, places and words you actually use.
  • Two verses and a chorus, about two and a half minutes, in a finished studio-quality recording.
  • Your choice of genre and voice: pop, country, acoustic, R&B/soul, worship and more, sung by a male or female vocalist.
  • Delivered by email, ready to play and share.
  • One free revision after delivery, so a name, a date or a line can be fixed if it is not quite right.
  • Yours to keep. Play it at dinner, put it on in the car, send it across the country.

Before you start

If they are going through something hard, say what you want them to feel when the song ends: less alone, braver or celebrated.

For a birthday, the day is the excuse. Use the name you really call them, mention the age if they would like that, and say what you have been meaning to say all year.

What to Tell Us About Your Friend

You do not need to answer all of them. Two or three strong answers are enough to build a song on.

  1. How did you two meet?
  2. What night, trip or phone call sealed the friendship?
  3. When did they show up for you without being asked?
  4. What inside joke still makes you both laugh?
  5. What are they going through or celebrating right now?
  6. What do you want them to feel when the song ends?

Tell us about your friend. We will write the song.

“This song is absolutely on point and exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much for making this for me my best friend is going to absolutely love it. I'm so blessed thank you so much.”Verified review · For a Friend · “Fully Clothed in the Lazy River”
