What it does with them
How one detail becomes a line.
The kind of thing people type about a Christmas, and the kind of line it comes back as. Written examples — the songs above are the real ones.
You writeDad falls asleep by four every year
It singsFour o'clock and Dad is gone, same as every year
You writeMum refuses to let anyone else do the timings
It singsThe timer is hers, the kitchen is hers, and we know better
You writeThe dog opens more presents than anyone
It singsThe dog has torn through three of ours already
Before you ask
Questions people ask.
Can one song be about the whole family?
Yes, and it is one of the best uses of this. Name three or four people and what each is known for, and they all end up in it, which is why it works played out loud at the table rather than given to one person.
Can it arrive on Christmas morning?
Yes. After you pay, choose Schedule for the day, pick Christmas morning and the timezone they will be in, and we email them the card and the song at that time. You can set it up weeks ahead, or on Christmas Eve.
How late can I order for Christmas?
There is nothing to post, so the deadline is whenever you want to send it. People order on the day. The card and the song arrive by link within minutes of paying.
Is an xmas song the same thing?
Yes. Xmas and Christmas are the same thing here, and the designs and songs are identical whichever you searched for. Pick any christmas e-card design and the song is written from what you tell us about the person.
What if the family is not all in one place?
A link works better than a present in that case: everyone opens the same thing at the same time wherever they are. Name each household in the brief and the song travels round all of them.
Can I make one about the first Christmas without someone?
Yes, and it is a common reason people order in December. Say who is missing and what they did on the day. The song can hold the absence without making the whole thing about grief, which is usually what a family needs at that table.
Does this work as a secret santa or an office gift?
It can, if you keep it about something safely shared, like the team joke or the thing they are known for at work. Avoid anything personal you would not say in a meeting, and read the words before you send it.
Is it too late if it is already December?
No. There is nothing to post and nothing to approve, so a song ordered on Christmas Eve arrives on Christmas Eve. Late is the normal case here rather than the exception.
How much does a personalized song cost?
Three lengths: $9 for about a minute, $29 for about two minutes, and $49 for about four minutes, with more re-records and an ending that signs off from you by name. One payment, no subscription.
How long does it take?
Minutes. You answer the questions, read the words, and the recording is made while you wait, there is no queue and no human songwriter to book. Most people finish the whole thing in under a quarter of an hour.
Is it written by a person or by AI?
AI writes and sings it from the details you give. We say so on every page rather than burying it, because you will hear it in the vocal. What is not automated is the part that makes it land: the specifics come from you, and you read the words before you pay.
What if I do not like it?
You see the first verse and chorus before paying, so the usual answer is to change your answers and go again for nothing. After paying, the Little and Big Ditty include re-records if a take comes out wrong.
Can I keep it, and does the link expire?
It does not expire. You get an MP3 to download and a link you can share, and we keep the song indefinitely, there is no window you have to act inside.
Can I play it at a party or an event?
Yes. It comes with a licence to play it at your own event, and the MP3 is yours to hand to a DJ or put on a phone. Use the download rather than the link if the venue wifi is unreliable.
97 days until Christmas
