Make a song for your husband, with his name in it

What a song for your husband sounds like

Below is a real song made on this site for an anniversary: a wife wrote four sentences about a rainy platform in Cork, an umbrella, a dog called Murphy and burnt Sunday toast. The lyrics came back with all of it, and the singer sang "Saoirse" correctly on the first try.

That is the whole idea. You give the details, we turn them into verses and a chorus that repeats his name, and you listen before you decide.

If you searched “create a song for my husband” or “love song for husband”, this is that: a personalized song for husband made from your own details, not a stock love song.

Anniversary songs for your husband you can play tonight

If you would rather play a song that already exists, these ten are well-loved anniversary choices across pop, soul and country. None of them has his name in it.

Or make one that only he could get

Any song on that list says "I love you". A song with his name, your dog's name and the platform where you met says "I remember". Make one from your story and play it after the classic.

What to write in the brief

You do not need to write well. You need to write specifically. Three to five of these are plenty:

• How you met, with the place or the weather.
• A habit of his you secretly love (or pretend not to).
• Something he built, fixed, cooked or carried.
• A phrase he always says.
• What this anniversary or birthday means this year.

Anniversary, birthday, or just because

Anniversary songs tend to work best as a slow acoustic or piano ballad with a male or female voice singing to him. Birthday songs can go upbeat; we have a 40th-birthday sample where the chorus is built around dinosaur pancakes and a half marathon. Pick the style and the voice on the form; everything else comes from your story.

His name, sung right

Names are where most custom-song services fall down. We respell hard names for the singer (you can type how to say it) and show the real spelling in the lyric sheet. In our tests Joaquin came out "wah-KEEN", Nguyen came out right, Siobhan came out "shiv-AWN". If it still sounds off, re-record once for free.

How it compares to ordering from a studio

If you want a human artist and have a week, the studios are wonderful. If it is Thursday and the anniversary is Saturday, or you want to hear it before you spend anything, this is for you.
