A worked example

Meet Nikki, our example friend

Nikki isn't real, but many friends share her story. Below is the kind of detail families send us, and what the resulting song looks like.

Nikki

Best friend, hen-do missed, fifteen years of laughter

  • Always up for a night out
  • Loves prosecco on special occasions
  • Collects vintage postcards
  • Never forgets a birthday

What the customer told us

I need to apologise to my best friend Nikki. I missed her hen do, for work reasons that felt important at the time and don't any more, and I've been too ashamed to fix it properly. Fifteen years of friendship deserves better than my voicemails. A song that says: I was wrong, you matter more than any job, and please let me buy the prosecco for a decade.

The sort of thing a friend might send us

Verse 1

Nikki, I've rehearsed this in the mirrorWrote it out and crossed off every lineFifteen years and I still get it wrong sometimesLeft you waiting while I made excuses shine

Pre-Chorus

The hen do came and I picked a meeting roomTold myself it mattered, told myself I'd make it up soonBut soon turned into silence, silence turned to shameAnd I've been hiding behind voicemails saying your name

Chorus

I was wrong, plain and simple, no dressing it upYou matter more than any job, more than any cupOf coffee I poured instead of catching that trainLet me start again, let me ease this strainFifteen years of you deserves better than sorry on a phoneLet me say it properly, let me bring you home

Verse 2

I know there was a toast that I should have raisedSome laughter in a room I chose to missI was signing off some email that doesn't matter nowWish I'd known then what I'm certain of right now

Pre-Chorus

No deadline's worth the picture I wasn't inNo meeting's worth the memory I let slip through my handsI chose wrong and I know it, I've known it all alongGive me one more chance to get this right, to sing this song

Chorus

I was wrong, plain and simple, no dressing it upYou matter more than any job, more than any cupOf coffee I poured instead of catching that trainLet me start again, let me ease this strainFifteen years of you deserves better than sorry on a phoneLet me say it properly, let me bring you home

Every song is written from scratch for one person only. This one came from a missed hen-do, a work conflict and fifteen years of shared moments.

What to put in an apology song for a friend

You don't need to be a poet. Just share the moments that matter, and we'll turn them into lyrics.

  1. The mishap

    What you missed or got wrong: the hen-do, the birthday, the call. It anchors the song.

  2. Why they matter

    A line about how she's been there for you, how she colours your life. It makes the apology feel genuine.

  3. A promise

    What you'll do to make it right: buying prosecco, a weekend together, a heartfelt gesture.

  4. A shared memory

    An inside joke or a funny moment from the past fifteen years to sprinkle in.
