How we look after your song
Your story, carefully checked: Our Cumbria team checks the names, dates, places and memories you supplied against your lyrics before you see them.
You approve the lyrics: Read every word and use your included lyric-change round before approval. Once approved, that version is locked; later creative amendments may be chargeable.
A real person throughout: A real member of our Cumbria team oversees your order and is available by email whenever you want to talk through your song.
Download, keep and replay: Your song and included keepsakes are delivered as digital downloads. The Lyric Sheet is a printable PDF; nothing is posted physically.
Why a song says what a card can't
Most gifts for mum are lovely and then forgotten. A song is different, because it is about her: her name, the house you grew up in, the things she did that you only really understood later.
You do not need to be a writer. You tell us the memories in your own words — even messily — and we turn them into lyrics you approve before a single note is recorded.
WHEN PEOPLE ORDER ONE
Moments this song suits
A first Mother's Day as a grandmother
Her role has changed and there is suddenly a lot to say. A song can hold both parts: the mum she was to you, and the gran she is now.
A milestone birthday
A 50th, 60th, 70th or 80th is usually marked with a meal and a card. A song played to the room tends to be the part people remember.
Thank you after a hard year
Illness, a house move, a family upheaval. When she has carried everyone, a song is a way of saying you noticed.
A gift from all the siblings
One song, memories gathered from everyone. It works out cheaper than separate presents and means considerably more.
WHAT TO INCLUDE
What makes their song truly personal
The things she always did
The school runs, the phone calls she always answered, the meals she made, the times she showed up without being asked. These are the details that make the song hers.
Her name — and what you call her
Mum, Mama, Gran, by her first name. Whatever you call her, we'll use the name that means something to your family.
A memory only your family would know
The holiday that went wrong but became the best story. The phrase she always says. The thing she does that drives everyone mad but you'd miss instantly.
What you want her to feel
Proud? Emotional? Both at once? Tell us the tone and we'll match it — from tearful ballads to warm, celebratory songs.
HEAR THE STANDARD
Examples of finished songs
Different stories, different styles and different voices — the same standard of production on every song.
Mum, You're Amazing
A soft acoustic ballad — an example of how a song written for a mum sounds.
Always With Us
A tender family song example, written across more than one generation.
Sarah's 60th
A celebratory birthday example built around a lifetime of memories.
