Commission a song as a present - £5

Options
Hi,

I pride myself on being an ace present buyer and for my girlfriends birthday came accross a website whereby you can ask them to write a song for you on ANY subject or person no matter how random. All you do is give them a general idea of what you want it to contain (mine was that my girlfriend loves shoes more than me, that her grandma looks like paul o gradys dog, and some other crazy stuff). I was scepticle of the quality but it came today and is UNBELIEVABLY good. They email you it on mp3 so you can burn it on a cd. Mine is hilarious and it only cost a fiver.

    This sounds great, I might try it for a present. I think the link is incorrect though, it should be http://www.prairiedogsongs.co.uk/yoursong.htm.

    Cheers

    SHE LOVES SHOES

    "My girlfriends called beth
    i love her to bits
    but not quite to death
    cos she loves shoes more than she loves me

    And we're getting married
    But one thing bothers me
    One things troubling me
    that she loves shoes more than she loves me

    Chorus:

    Shoes are nice
    But they wont keep you warm at night
    Shoes are fun
    But bobbie and alfie have none (our dogs)
    No one knows why
    She loves shoes more than she loves me

    She calls my dad bob horses nob
    I dont ask why-i dont ask why
    And her nan looks like paul o gradys dog
    dont ask why-its no lie

    etc etc

    SINGER SOUNDS A BIT LIKE RADIOHEAD-I LOVE MINE

    They used to have these machines in Card shops a few years ago. I always felt it was better to personalise cards this way.

    "Due to time demands we are only writing about 6 paid songs a year now"

    Is this still the case? Is this guy still taking orders/requests? Must be very labour intensive! Great find though!!

    I don't think you've told us what the ending to the 4th line really was ;)
