A worked example

Meet Beth, our example new mum

Beth isn't real, but many new mums share her story. Below is the kind of detail families send us, and what we do with it. Your song would be built from your own words.

Beth

First mothers day, five-month old, extraordinary.

  • 3am feeds she says she doesn't mind
  • Nursery rhymes with the wrong words
  • First second she looked at him
  • Happy first one, Mummy

What they told us

It's my wife Beth's first Mother's Day. Our son is five months old and she has been extraordinary: the 3am feeds she claims she doesn't mind, the nursery rhymes with the wrong words, the way she looked at him the first second of his life. From me and the little man: happy first one, Mummy. The song will be played mid-brunch. Tears expected.

Verse 1

Five months in and you're still standingSoft in the middle of the nightRocking him through the small hoursTelling me you're all rightYou say the 3am feeds don't tire youI know that isn't trueBut you'd never trade a minuteOf the dark hours with him and you

Pre-Chorus

And I saw it happen, first second of his lifeThe way you looked at himLike the whole world turned to light

Chorus

Happy first one, MummyFrom me and the little manThis is the year you became everythingThat we didn't understandWe love you, Beth, more than we can say itSo we're singing it insteadHappy first one, MummyFor every song you've sung by his bed

Verse 2

You get the nursery rhymes all wrongHalf the words are yours somehowHe doesn't mind, he just watches youLike nothing's better than right nowThere's a version of those old songsThat only exists because of youMade up love notes at midnightNobody else could ever do

Pre-Chorus

And I saw it happen, first second of his lifeThe way you looked at himLike the whole world turned to light

Chorus

Happy first one, MummyFrom me and the little manThis is the year you became everythingThat we didn't understandWe love you, Beth, more than we can say itSo we're singing it insteadHappy first one, MummyFor every song you've sung by his bed

Bridge

Someday he'll know the whole of itEvery night you never sleptEvery wrong word that was still somehow rightEvery promise that you keptBut today it's just this tableJust the three of us and timeSo let us say it plainlyYou are the best thing that is his

Chorus

Happy first one, MummyFrom me and the little manThis is the year you became everythingThat we didn't understandWe love you, Beth, more than we can say itSo we're singing it insteadHappy first one, Mummy

Outro

Happy first one, MummyLook how far you've comeHappy first one, MummyOur whole world, our home

Every song is written from scratch for one person only. Beth's came from 3am feeds, mis-sung rhymes and that first breath. Yours will come from whatever you tell us.
