An anniversary song about your years together
By a certain anniversary you have run out of things to buy each other. A song has the advantage of being impossible to already own — it is written from the specific years you have had, so it did not exist before you ordered it and cannot exist for anyone else.
First anniversary, tenth, twenty-fifth, or the one you count from a date nobody else knows about.
Ten winters in the same cold kitchen,
same bad radio, same you humming through it —
I would not trade a single ordinary morning.
What to put in the prompts
The unglamorous years usually make the best verses. The flat with bad heating, the argument you now tell as a funny story, the phrase one of you says every single morning. Anniversary songs work on accumulated detail, not grand statements.
Nostalgic by default, yours to change
Anniversary songs default to a nostalgic mood, but you pick the genre from sixteen options — soul, folk, R&B, country, jazz, or whatever was playing the year you met. The mood and genre are chosen before the lyrics are recorded.
Give it as a reveal, not a file
Every song comes with a private gift reveal page locked behind its own 4-digit code. Send the link over dinner, give them the code, and let them open it themselves. It reads more like a gift than a file attachment does.
How it works
Pick the occasion
Birthday, wedding, memorial, or just because — choose the moment the song is for.
Share your memories
Guided prompts pull out the stories only you two share. We turn them into lyrics you can edit and refine.
Hear it sung
A few minutes later, two full versions of your song. Preview both, pick your favorite.
Gift the reveal
Download your MP3 and send a personal reveal page, unlocked with their own 4-digit code.
Anniversary song questions
- What is a good anniversary gift for someone who has everything?
- Something that cannot be bought twice. A custom anniversary song is written from your specific memories, so it is not a product they could already own or receive from someone else.
- Can I write it about a relationship, not a marriage?
- Yes. The prompts ask about the relationship you actually have — dating anniversaries, the anniversary of a first date, or a date only the two of you count all work the same way.
- Do I have to be good with words?
- No. You answer plain questions in plain sentences and the lyrics get written from your answers. You can read and edit every line before anything is sung.
