Christmas gifts for your boyfriend that mean more than another hoodie
You want something that says "this is us", not something from the gift aisle. Here's what actually lands, starting with the one only you can give.

Our pick
A song about the two of you
How you met, your first date, the inside jokes, where you see it going. Tell us and we write and produce an original song about him, with his name in it. Play it for him on Christmas morning, or send it if you're apart.
1. Share a few memories
His name, who he is to you and a few things only you would know. It takes about two minutes.
2. We write and produce the song
An original song built from your words, with the name in it. You get a free preview by email.
3. Hear it and keep it forever
Unlock it and it's yours: the song, the lyrics and a link to share. Download included.
Free preview by email. Arrives by email, no shipping.

A date you plan start to finish
Pick the place, book it, tell him the time. He just has to turn up.

Your best photos of the year, framed

Tickets to something you'll both love
A gig, a game, a show. The night out together is the gift.

The thing he keeps mentioning
He's said it three times. Write it down, and get it.

Questions
How long does it take?
It arrives by email within the hour, and always within 24 hours. There's no shipping, so even the last few days before Christmas are fine.
What do I need to share?
His name, who he is to you and a few memories: a habit, something he always says, a favorite place, a moment you'll never forget. The more detail you give, the more personal the song.
Can I hear it first?
Yes. Every song comes with a free preview, sent by email, so you can hear it before you decide.
Can I change it?
Yes. Once you unlock the song, changes to the lyrics, the style or the voice are included until it's right.
Is it a physical gift?
No, it's digital: a download, the lyrics and a private link. Play it on Christmas morning, send it to him if you're apart this year, or add a video of your photos to play on the TV.
The gift nobody else can give
Two minutes to tell us about them. A free preview by email. It arrives by email, no shipping.
