This page is about the song itself: what the lyrics should do under the photos. For the software steps in Canva, iMovie, PowerPoint and Google Slides, see how to add custom music to a graduation slideshow. For structure and length, see how to plan a graduation slideshow.

Why a named song beats the usual five

Most slideshows run on the same few songs, and the room has heard them all. A song with your graduate's name in the chorus tells everyone this slideshow belongs to one person. It also gives you a spot in the song that no one else's slideshow has.

Plan the song around the photo eras

A slideshow already has a shape. Baby photos, school years, the teams and the friends, then the senior portraits. A good song follows that shape, so the form should say which eras matter.

  • Verse one: the early years. A nickname, a place they grew up, a favorite thing.
  • Verse two: the school years. A teacher, a team, a friend group, a hard class.
  • The chorus: the name and the year. This is the line that plays over the senior portraits.
  • The last lines: what is next. College, work, the military, a move.

Put the order your photos run in on the form, so the lyrics can follow it.

What to put in the form

  1. Their full name, plus the nickname the family actually uses
  2. School, mascot and graduating year
  3. Two or three true memories that your photos already show
  4. Anyone who should be named: a sibling, a coach, a grandparent
  5. Where they are headed next
  6. The style you want: country, pop, hip-hop, acoustic, rock or something else
  7. Anything to leave out

Fit the photos to the MP3

Your slideshow software sets how long each photo stays up. Use the finished MP3 as the clock: import it first, then space the photos so the chorus lands on the senior portraits. Change a photo's time on screen, not the song.

How it works

  1. Pay $40 through Stripe.
  2. Fill out the short form about your graduate.
  3. Get the MP3 by email within 48 hours after you send the form.

You can use the song for personal things: the party slideshow, the senior banquet and family posts.

One custom graduation song, $40

Pay first. Then the short form. You get an original MP3 for the slideshow.

One free revision. If we can't get it right, you get your money back.
