Use this idea →How to make a birthday song with Slice
- Write who it's for. Their name, the birthday, and two or three things about them: what they love, a habit, a running joke. "My friend Sarah, turning 30, loves dancing and her dog Biscuit" is plenty.
- Say what it should sound like. Upbeat pop, a soft acoustic song, a love ballad, a cheeky rap. Add the voice too: "a bright female voice", "a deep, warm voice".
- Choose "A singer" under Who speaks. The ideas above choose it for you.
- Pick a look. Photorealistic or Cinematic for real-looking people, Pixar for a cartoon, Anime, Watercolor and more.
- Tap Generate. Slice writes the song, sings it, makes a scene for every line and puts the words on screen, timed to the singing.
Tips for a song they'll replay
- Details make it theirs. The name of their dog, their favourite food, the thing everyone teases them about. The more specific, the better the song.
- Describe what we should see. "A surprise party with balloons and a big cake" or "a cartoon dinosaur party". The pictures follow the song line by line.
- Funny, not mean. A roast works best when it's affectionate. Slice keeps it kind.
- 30–60 seconds fits a verse and a chorus, which is the right length for a message.
- Want a rapper or singer on camera? See songs — raps, love songs and jingles.
- Making one for a child? See nursery rhymes for sing-along songs.
Happy Birthday to You is in the public domain, so Slice can sing it with their name. Other famous songs are copyrighted: ask for one and Slice writes an original birthday song instead.
Questions
Can I make a birthday song with their name in it?
Yes. Type their name and a few things about them — their age, what they love, a running joke — and Slice writes a birthday song just for them, sings it, and turns it into a video with a scene for every line and the words on screen.
Can the video look real, or like a cartoon?
Either. Pick a style before you make it: Pixar-style 3D or Claymation for a cartoon, Photorealistic or Cinematic for real-looking people, Anime, Watercolor and more. The people in it are made up by the AI from your description.
What kind of song can it be?
Whatever suits them: upbeat pop, a gentle acoustic song, a love ballad, a funny rap, a kids' song. Say the style and the voice you want in your idea ("cheeky hip hop with a deep voice").
Can someone sing it on camera?
Yes, with any credit pack. Tick "Show the singer singing on camera" under A singer and a singer appears in about half the scenes, their lips moving with the song. It's a premium option, so it uses more credits.
Can it sing Happy Birthday to You?
Yes — the words of Happy Birthday to You are in the public domain, so Slice can sing them with their name. The tune is a new one Slice composes for your video. Other famous songs are copyrighted, so ask for one and Slice writes an original birthday song instead.
Is it free to try?
Your free credits make one video of up to 15 seconds — about a verse. A full birthday song of 30–60 seconds needs a credit pack. In some countries, sung videos unlock with a credit pack.
How do I send it?
Download the video and send it on WhatsApp, iMessage or email, or post it to Instagram, TikTok or Facebook. The video is yours.
