SOPHIE'S SONG DETAILS

Who is the song for?
Mike

Who are they to you?
My dad

Approximate age
62

Anything that makes the song personal: personality, hobbies, occupation, favourite sayings, places, pets, achievements, funny stories and things they love
Dad’s a builder, practical and patient, and can fix almost anything. He loves fishing, rugby and pottering in his garage. Still drives an old blue ute he refuses to replace.

Terrible dad jokes and usually burns the sausages at family barbecues. Always says, “She’ll be right.” He’s not big on talking about feelings, but he always turns up when you need him.

Tell me the story behind why you wanted this song. What do you want the listener to feel?
I want him to know how much I love him and how proud I am to be his daughter. He’s done so much for me without making a fuss, and I probably don’t tell him enough. Having my own daughter has made me appreciate him even more.

What is the occasion?
Father’s Day

Key memories
Fishing off the wharf before sunrise. Two rods and a thermos in his blue ute. Often caught nothing, but I loved going with him.

Learning to drive in the ute. I stalled on a hill and panicked. He just laughed gently and said, “She’ll be right, Soph,” then helped me try again.

He came and sat with me after a bad breakup. Didn’t lecture me or try to fix it, just stayed so I wasn’t alone.

We still talk most Sundays. Now I’m raising Mia, I notice myself being patient with her the way he was with me.

Names to include
Sophie — me.
Mike — Dad.
Karen — Mum.
Josh — my brother.
Mia — my daughter.

They don’t all have to be included if they don’t fit.

Musical genre
Pop Ballard

Male or female vocalist
Female

Overall mood
Loving, heartfelt and uplifting. Emotional, but not sad.

Tempo
Slow, with a steady beat.

Should the person’s name be sung?
Yes, but mostly call him Dad.

Any specific words or phrases?
“I’m proud to call you my dad.”

Anything you DON’T want included?
No country sound or heavy drumming. Nothing about superheroes or angels, and please don’t make it sound like a memorial song.

What is the email you’d like the file sent to?
sophie@gmail.co.nz

Is there anything else you’d like me to know?
I’d like it to start softly and build into a strong chorus. A short spoken opening and ending would be nice, but sing the rest. You don’t need to fit everything in—just make it feel personal and show him how much he means to me.

THE FINISHED LYRICS

PROUD TO CALL YOU MY DAD

[Spoken Intro]
Dad… you’ve always made me feel loved.
I want you to feel it too.

[Verse 1]
Two fishing rods, a thermos flask,
Your blue ute before dawn.
Sitting beside you on the wharf,
Our jackets keeping out the cold.
Sometimes we never caught a thing.
You never hurried home.
I didn’t know how much that meant—
You let the whole morning be ours.

[Pre-Chorus]
Back then, I only knew
I loved that time with you.
Now I know you chose it too.

[Chorus]
I’m proud to call you my dad,
Proud of the man you are.
Not just for all you’ve done for me,
But the way you love us all.
You’ve never needed words like these,
But you deserve to hear them back:
I love you, Dad. I hope you know
How proud I am to call you that.

[Verse 2]
I stalled your ute upon that hill,
My hands tight on the wheel.
You laughed and said, “She’ll be right, Soph,”
And waited till I could breathe.
You never reached to take my place
Or made me feel ashamed.
You sat beside me while I tried
Until we moved again.

[Pre-Chorus]
I remember how you smiled.
I was so proud of myself.
Now I’m just as proud of you,
And how you always helped.

[Chorus]
I’m proud to call you my dad,
Proud of the man you are.
Not just for all you’ve done for me,
But the way you love us all.
You’ve never needed words like these,
But you deserve to hear them back:
I love you, Dad. I hope you know
How proud I am to call you that.

[Verse 3]
When the life I’d planned fell through,
You came and sat with me.
No lecture on what I should do,
No asking me to leave it be.
You’d spent your life repairing things,
But didn’t try that day.
You let me cry beside you.
I love you for the way you stayed.

[Bridge]
Now sometimes when I’m with Mia,
I hear you in the things I say.
I give her time to try again,
And sit with her when she’s afraid.
I used to think growing up
Meant needing you a little less.
Now I’m raising her and finding
Parts of you I love the best.

[Final Chorus]
I’m proud to call you my dad,
Proud of the man you are.
And if she feels as loved as I do,
I’ll know I’ve made a start.
I hope you see yourself in me,
And all the love I’m giving back.
Everyone else may call you Mike—
I’m so proud to call you Dad.

[Spoken Outro]
I love you, Dad.
Happy Father’s Day.

FAQ'S

QUESTIONS? WE'VE GOT ANSWERS

Is my song actually unique or is it a template?

Every song is written from scratch based on the details you share with us — the person's name, your memories, the emotions you want to capture. No two songs are ever the same. You won't find your song anywhere else.

What if I don't like the song?

No problem. Every order includes two rounds of revisions, giving you the opportunity to request reasonable changes.

How does the 24-hour delivery work?

Once you've completed your order and filled out our personalisation form, we get straight to work. Your finished MP3 will be in your inbox within 24 hours — often sooner.

What do I receive?

You'll receive your song as an MP3 file delivered directly to your email. It's ready to play on any device, share with family, or use at an event.

Can I choose the music style and genre?

Yes. When you fill out the personalisation form after purchase, you can tell us the style, mood, and feel you're after — whether that's country, pop, acoustic, emotional ballad, or something else entirely.

What information do you need from me?

After you purchase, we'll email you a short form asking for the person's name, your relationship with them, key memories or moments, and the feeling you want the song to create. The more detail you give us, the better the song.

Do you offer refunds?

If you cancel before production begins, we’ll provide a full refund. Once production has started, we don’t normally provide change-of-mind refunds because the song is created specifically for you. Your rights under New Zealand consumer law still apply.

Can I share the song publicly or use it commercially?

Your song is created for personal use — sharing it with friends and family, playing it at events, or posting it on personal social media is absolutely fine. If you need commercial rights (for business use, broadcasting, or monetisation) please contact us before ordering and we can discuss options.
