A song for your husband.
A gift only you could give.
The knock at the door. The joke he tells badly. The things he does without being asked. Make him a song from the details you know by heart.

Three Little Knocks
A wife-to-husband soul-rock song
Three Little Knocks
0:00 / 0:00
Three knocks.
Twelve years.
Tom used to knock three times on the door of their first flat. Twelve years and a family home later, his wife still knows it is him before she opens it.
“Three little knocks
And I know it’s you.”
From Three Little Knocks
What would he recognize?
Something he does
He reads parking fines in a newsreader voice. Start there, rather than simply saying he makes you laugh.
A phrase you share
A nickname or a familiar greeting can become the line he waits to hear again.
His kind of music
Choose the sound he puts on in the car. The love song creator has room for drums and guitars, too.

Two more songs written for husbands
An anniversary song from his wife and a 60th-birthday song from his husband. Each one is built on one ordinary detail he would recognize.
Always the Left One
A wife's song for their 23rd anniversary
On rainy Sunday dog walks, he hands her his left glove and never mentions it. Over the years a hall drawer has filled with unmatched right gloves, and the song ends with his borrowed glove drying on the radiator.
The detail it is built on: A drawer of unmatched right gloves.
0:00 / 4:40Plot Twenty-Seven
A husband's song for his husband's 60th birthday
After a move to a new city, Mark took on a neglected garden plot, number 27: seed labels written in pencil, a radio on the greenhouse shelf, strawberries eaten before they leave the site. The plot became their Sunday place, and the song spends one afternoon there: the dented thermos, the radio, the strawberries that never make it home.
The detail it is built on: A dented blue thermos whose lid no longer seals.
