A song for your sister, for every age you have been together

Hear the second a name lands

Siobhan, you're shining bright today

You wrote“She runs the family group chat and never forgets a birthday.”

The song singsYou run the family group chat with a whole lot of love.

From a real song made here: “Thirty Years of Siobhan”, for Siobhan, from what her younger sibling typed.

The moment you give it

You drop it in the family chat she runs. Mom reacts first, Dad asks how to play it, and your sister sends one voice note that is mostly her laughing and saying your name.

Family group chat, Sunday 4:30 pm

What to remember for her

  • The bedroom you shared, or the wall between your rooms.
  • Clothes she borrowed and never gave back.
  • A family trip that went completely sideways.
  • The secret she kept for you.
  • Who she is now: an aunt, a mom, a boss, a traveler.

Older sister, younger sister

If she is older, the song can thank her for going first and clearing the way. If she is younger, it can be about watching her grow up and outgrow you. Tell us which in your lines, and the lyrics take that angle.

For example

Those lines carry a song from childhood to today.

  • She taught me to ride a bike by running behind me for a whole summer.
  • We had a secret knock on the bathroom door.
  • Now she is the first person I call with any news.

Sound and voice

A female voice with acoustic pop keeps it close and conversational, like a phone call between the two of you. For a sister who loves to dance, upbeat pop with a big chorus is more her.

When you are not close right now

Sister songs are sometimes written to mend things. If you have drifted apart, write about a time you were on the same side, plus one line about wanting that back. Keep it gentle; the song does not need to settle who was right.

For sisters who are already best friends, lean on the jokes. For sisters who are rebuilding, lean on the memories.
