June's Kitchen

Acoustic Pop · 3:00

“June, June, the oven's on
The windows fog with cinnamon”

For Grandma June at Christmas, from the grandkids. Read the lyrics

What the grandkids know about them

The small things you noticed as a kid are the ones that make the song:

  1. What the grandkids call them: Nana, Pop, Oma, Abuelo.
  2. The dish that only tastes right at their house.
  3. The ornament that always goes on the tree first.
  4. How long they've been married, or the story of how they met.
  5. The card game, the carol or the joke that belongs to them.

Songs for people we made up

These people are made up. The music and the voice come from the same AI that sings your song.

  • June's Kitchen

    For Grandma June at Christmas, from the grandkids. Built on: fifty years of baking in the same kitchen.

    June's Kitchen

    Read the lyrics

    Verse 1

    Flour on the counter

    Flour in her hair

    Fifty years of Christmas

    Started right there

    Chorus

    June, June, the oven's on

    The windows fog with cinnamon

    Every one of us is coming home

    To June's kitchen again

    Verse 2

    She hides the presents badly

    In the very same place

    And acts surprised we found them

    With the straightest face

    Chorus

    June, June, the oven's on

    The windows fog with cinnamon

    Every one of us is coming home

    To June's kitchen again

    Bridge

    There's a chair we leave for Grandpa

    She still sets out his cup

    And she hums his favorite carol

    While she's cleaning up

    Chorus

    June, June, the oven's on

    The windows fog with cinnamon

    Every one of us is coming home

    To June's kitchen again

  • Smoke Alarm Christmas

    For Dad (Sam) at Christmas, from his kids. Built on: he burns the cookies every single year.

    Smoke Alarm Christmas

    Read the lyrics

    Verse 1

    Dad's on the ladder again

    With a thousand tangled lights

    He swears this year they'll all come on

    And half are out tonight

    Chorus

    Sam, Sam, the smoke alarm

    Means the cookies are done

    Merriest man on Willow Street

    Worst baker under the sun

    Verse 2

    He wears the reindeer sweater

    The one Mom tried to hide

    He waves to every neighbor

    With a spatula held high

    Chorus

    Sam, Sam, the smoke alarm

    Means the cookies are done

    Merriest man on Willow Street

    Worst baker under the sun

    Bridge

    Same burnt batch, same tangled lights

    Same sweater every year

    Don't you dare get better, Dad

    Stay just like this, right here

    Chorus

    Sam, Sam, the smoke alarm

    Means the cookies are done

    Merriest man on Willow Street

    Worst baker under the sun

    Piano Ballad sample

Grandma, Grandpa, or both

One name goes in the chorus, so pick whose song it is. If they're a pair, tell us about both of them: Grandpa can turn up in the verses of Grandma's song, mending the lights or asleep in his chair.

Easy to play, even without a smartphone habit

The gift is a private link: they open it, an envelope opens, and the song plays with your note under it. No app, no account, no password. Or play it for them at Christmas dinner and email the MP3 afterward.

From all the grandchildren at once

One song can come from every grandchild. Mention each of them in your answers, and the lyrics can say who learned to fish with Grandpa and who still loses to Grandma at rummy.

Questions people ask

All questions

Splitting the cost with cousins? See what a custom song usually costs elsewhere.

When do I need to order to have it for Christmas?

Any time, Christmas Eve included. The song is usually ready about five minutes after you press Sing, and your first song comes with a free preview. Nothing ships, so there's no deadline to beat.

Can the song say Nana or Grandpa instead of a first name?

Yes. Type the name they go by, like Nana or Grandpa Joe, and that's the name sung in the chorus. If it's unusual, spell it the way it sounds.

What does a song for my grandparents cost?

Your first preview is free. The full song is $6.99, in two versions as MP3s you keep. For both sets of grandparents, 2 songs are $11.99; 5 are $24.99.

Can I hear my own song before I pay?

Yes. Your first song's preview is free: you read and edit the lyrics, we sing them in two versions, and you hear 40 seconds of each, with their name and your words, not a stock demo. No payment needed. If you love it, unlock the full song for $6.99 and download both versions as full-length MP3s. After that, each new song uses a credit.

How long does it take?

Telling us about them takes about three minutes. The lyrics usually arrive within a minute or two, and the song is usually ready within five minutes of pressing Sing, so it works for a same-day gift. We email you when it's ready, so you can close the tab.

Is a real person singing?

No. The lyrics are written by AI from your answers, and the song is sung by an AI voice. That's how we can make an original song for one person in minutes, for a few dollars. You read and edit every line before it's sung, and you hear a free preview before you pay.

Can I use the song commercially?

Your song is for personal use: play it at the party, send it to family and friends, and post it on your own social accounts. It isn't licensed for commercial use, like ads, resale or music streaming services. See the License.

Their name, sung at their table.
