Tell us their name and a few of the things you remember most, and we write a custom memorial song around them: the way they laughed, the things they made, the place they loved. Hear a sample before you pay; the full song is $9.99.
Two memorial songs made on this page from the memories shown under each one. Press play, then open the song page to see what family and friends see when you share a custom memorial song.
In memory · Country
For Robert, from Anna
What they wrote: “Dad fixed every neighbor’s lawnmower for free, taught me to fish at Miller Lake at sunrise, and whistled Johnny Cash while he cooked Sunday breakfast. He passed in March. We still keep his chair by the window.”Open the song page
In memory · Gospel
For Grandma June, from Sam
What they wrote: “She grew tomatoes taller than me, kept butterscotch candies in every coat pocket and sang hymns while she hung the laundry. Ninety-one years of an open door and a warm kitchen.”Open the song page
Their name, who they were to you, a music style and a few sentences about them: what they did with their hands, what they always said, a place or a habit you picture when you think of them. Those details are what make a custom memorial song about them and nobody else.
In a few minutes you get two versions, with lyrics written from your memories and their name in the first line and the chorus. Listen to the first 45 seconds of each and read all of the lyrics. If something is not right, make another version or change your words.
For $9.99 you unlock both full versions, MP3 downloads and a private page with their name, the cover art and your message. Share the link with family, or play it at the service.
When someone dies, the songs people reach for are usually other people’s songs. They can be beautiful, but they are about someone else. A custom memorial song is about the person you lost: the lawnmowers he fixed for the neighbours, the butterscotch candies she kept in every coat pocket, the chair by the window that is still theirs.
It can also give the family something to do together. Gathering the memories, deciding what matters most and choosing the music is a quiet way to remember out loud. Many families share the custom memorial song with relatives who could not travel to the funeral, so everyone hears the same tribute.
And it stays. The MP3 is yours to keep and the page stays up, so the song can be played on their birthday, on the anniversary of their passing, or any evening you want to hear their name again.
Play it as people arrive, after the eulogy or as the service closes. A gentle acoustic, country or gospel style suits most services.
For a celebration of life, a warmer, more upbeat custom memorial song can match the mood: their favourite jokes, the parties they threw, the music they loved.
Add the MP3 to a slideshow of photos. Each version runs a few minutes, about the length of thirty to forty pictures.
The first birthday after a loss is hard. Playing their song with the people who loved them gives the day a shape.
A year on, a custom memorial song can be a way to gather the family again and remember the person rather than the loss.
Christmas, Thanksgiving or the family reunion: a song with their name in it can make room for them at the table.
Send the link to the cousins overseas or the friend who could not come. The page opens on any phone.
Losing a dog or cat is real grief. A pet memorial song with their name, their favourite walk and their bad habits can say what a card cannot.
What he fixed, what he taught you, the song he whistled, the advice you still hear in his voice. A custom memorial song for your father can be played at the service and on Father’s Day after.
Her kitchen, her laugh, the way she checked on everyone. Many people make a custom memorial song for their mother to share with the brothers and sisters who remember her the same way.
Their garden, their stories, their long life. A memorial song for a grandparent often becomes the thing the grandchildren play to remember them.
How you met and what your years together were like. If writing it feels like too much, a family member can fill in the form with you.
The trips, the jokes, the phone calls. A song from the whole friend group can be played at the memorial or the gathering afterwards.
Choose Pet as the relationship and write about their favourite spot, the walks and the way they greeted you at the door.
The style sets the mood. Choose the music they loved, or the feeling you want people to leave with: quiet and reflective, or warm and grateful.
Warm and hopeful, for a celebration of life that remembers the good times.
Guitar and voice, quiet and close. The most common choice for a memorial service.
Story first, for a life of hard work, open roads and family.
Soulful and tender, for someone who filled the house with music.
For the one who never turned the volume down. A tribute that sounds like them.
Slow and emotional, for a husband or wife and a lifetime together.
Simple and honest, good for a long life told as a story.
Gentle and dignified, for a grandparent or a quiet gathering.
For a young life, a friend group, or someone who loved the genre. Rhythm and memories.
Warm and full of life, for a family that remembers with music and dancing.
Comforting and full of faith, for a church family and a homegoing service.
Simple and gentle, if children are helping to remember a grandparent or a pet.
Here is the kind of answer that works. Name: Robert. Relationship: dad. Style: country. Story: “Dad fixed every neighbor’s lawnmower for free, taught me to fish at Miller Lake at sunrise, and whistled Johnny Cash while he cooked Sunday breakfast. He passed in March. We still keep his chair by the window.” From Anna.
That is enough for a custom memorial song that opens on his name, moves through the lake at sunrise and the Sunday breakfasts, and comes back to the chair by the window in the chorus. It is one of the examples above, so you can hear what came out. You get two versions; if a memory is missing, add it and make another before you pay.
You have about 300 characters. Small, concrete memories work better than big words: “she was a wonderful person” could be anyone, but “she kept butterscotch candies in every coat pocket and sang hymns while she hung the laundry” could only be her.
Good details: what they did every day, something they made or fixed, a phrase they always used, a place they loved, the music they played, and the thing you most want to say to them now. Write their name the way the family said it, such as Grandma June or Pops.
If you are making it for a service, choose a gentle style unless they would have wanted a party. You can make up to three samples before paying, so it is fine to try one and change it.
A custom memorial song written and recorded by a professional songwriter usually costs from about $99 to several hundred dollars and can take days or weeks, which is often longer than the time before a service.
This custom memorial song is made with AI from your memories, so it is ready in minutes and costs $9.99, once. You hear a sample before you pay and can redo it up to three times for free. The price covers both full versions, MP3 downloads and the song page. No subscription, no credits.
When you unlock it you get a private link to the song page: their name, your message, the cover art and both versions. Only people with the link can open it, and nobody needs an account.
Send it to family, print the link in the order of service, play it at the gathering or add the MP3 to a photo slideshow. There is no right way to share a custom memorial song; many people listen alone first, then with family.
