Grandparents
At 80, Grandma does not need another throw blanket or photo frame. A song with her name that tells of the farm, the bakery or the school where she worked, her garden and the Sunday lunches at her place gives her own life back to her in music. The same goes for Grandpa and his workshop. For a milestone birthday, or for Grandparents Day.
The job he did for forty years, the family house where everyone spent the summer, the Sunday pie, the dance where they met. At that age there is no shortage of memories: you just pick three or four. That is what our demo does for Emily's eightieth: her kitchen, her children, her grandchildren.
Each one sends a memory: Wednesday pancakes, the car Grandpa let you steer down the lane, the line Grandma repeats on every phone call. You gather them in the five questions of the order, and the song carries the whole family's name. At EUR 13 for the fullest tier, nobody argues about their share.
Lunch is over, the kids drive home. The song stays: the MP3 downloads and the gift page opens from a simple link you can send her again or play for her on your next visit. With The Platinum, family photos play over the song.
Five fun questions: their name, their passion, that adorable little flaw, the story that cracks up the whole table, the style that gets them dancing. Two minutes, we timed it.
Our hit machines compose, a real human ear listens, tweaks the lyrics and starts again if need be. You get two versions — keep the one you love.
A listening link to share, the file to keep forever, and a printable card with a code to scan. You press play — the party starts.
On the day, plug a phone into the TV or a speaker: from The Gold Record, karaoke goes full screen, on a phone as on a television. The MP3 downloads from the first tier, so it also fits on a USB stick.
Specific facts rather than qualities: the job, the house where the kids grew up, the dish everyone asks for, the nickname the grandchildren use. You answer five questions, as if you were telling a friend about her. Three strong memories beat a list of twelve names.
A few minutes is enough: the song is composed straight away. Ordering a few days early mostly gives you time to collect everyone's memories.
Yes, if it is the family party: at home, in a rented hall or in a restaurant's private room, among close ones, that is the private use the terms of sale provide for. Only a public performance, open to anyone, or commercial use requires our prior agreement. Write to us, it is not a refusal on principle.
