A worked example

Meet Finley, our example nephew

Finley isn't real, but many nephews are like him. Here's the sort of detail families send us, and what we do with it. Your song would be built from your own memories.

Finley

Birthday boy, football commentator, snail keeper, old-days dreamer.

  • Greets with a football score before hello
  • Keeps snails as 'pets' in Mum's garden
  • Asked seriously if I was alive in the olden days
  • Believes the olden days had better music

What his uncle told us

It's my nephew's birthday. He's the boy who greets me with a football scoreline before hello, keeps snails as 'pets' in my mum's garden, and once asked me, dead serious, if I was alive in the olden days. His uncle's answer is this song. Yes, mate. And the olden days had better music.

Verse 1

You run up shouting scorelinesBefore you say my nameThree-nil, extra time, mateThen straight on to the gameYou've got a snail called GaryLiving in nan's flower bedYou built him a little palaceOut of a broken plant pot instead

Chorus

Happy birthday, FinleyYou ask the best of questionsHappy birthday, FinleyFull of daft suggestionsYou asked me, dead serious"Were you alive back then?"Yes mate, I wasAnd I'll say it again

Verse 2

You line your snails up racingGive every one a nameNan says her garden's a stadiumYou just laugh, it's the sameYou quote the football scoresLike they're the news of the dayI never get a helloTill the football's had its say

Chorus

Happy birthday, FinleyYou ask the best of questionsHappy birthday, FinleyFull of daft suggestionsYou asked me, dead serious"Were you alive back then?"Yes mate, I wasAnd I'll say it again

Bridge

So here's the truth, young manThe olden days were slowNo snail traps, no last minute goalsJust records spinning nice and lowBut the tunes back then were betterThat's a fact, not a lieSo happy birthday, FinleyGo on and ask me why

Chorus

Happy birthday, FinleyYou ask the best of questionsHappy birthday, FinleyFull of daft suggestionsYou asked me, dead serious"Were you alive back then?"Yes mate, I wasAnd I'll say it again

Outro

Go on then, give me a scorelineBefore you say helloHappy birthday, FinleyGrow exactly as you grow

Finley's song was built from a football greeting, garden snails and a curious question about the past. Every song is written from scratch for one person only.

What to put in a birthday song for your nephew

Just send us the quirky bits that make him unique. We'll weave them into verses.

  1. The scoreline greeting

    The way he starts every chat with a football result: perfect for a catchy chorus.

  2. The snail pets

    His collection of garden snails, their names and the pride he takes in them.

  3. The olden-days question

    That dead-serious moment when he wondered if you were alive centuries ago.

  4. The cheeky uncle reply

    Your playful answer about better music: it makes a great bridge line.

When it plays

Picture the birthday moment

Between the candles and the cake, the room fills with the tune.

The grin

He stops mid-cheer as the lyric mentions his snail army, eyes widening.

Everyone bursts out when the chorus shouts the old-time music line.
