Why a retirement song?

After a whole working life, a colleague deserves more than a card and an envelope. Your own retirement song captures the years spent at work: the highlights, the familiar habits and the people around them — in words that linger for a long time.

It is also the highlight of the farewell reception: playing the song, everyone listening along and the retiree recognising themselves in every line. Afterwards they can always listen back to it at home.

Who is a retirement song for?

  • A colleague or manager who is retiring
  • Someone leaving after many years of service
  • A team member or craftsperson passing on the baton
  • As a gift on behalf of the whole team, department or company

What goes into it?

The details make it personal: the years of service, the role and department, a typical saying, the best memories and inside jokes, and of course a good wish for all the free time now ahead — from the garden to the caravan.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

What is the difference from a farewell song?
A retirement song is a farewell song specifically for someone who stops working: it looks back on the whole career and ahead to retirement. A different kind of farewell? Then choose the farewell song.
Can colleagues give it together as a gift?
Yes, that happens often. One person makes the request and gathers the team's input; then I deliver the song you can give together.
How quickly can a retirement song be ready?
On average 7 to 10 days; the Deluxe package can be faster. So order it in good time, well before the reception.
What does a retirement song cost?
A personal song starts from € 29; for a retirement people often choose Premium or Deluxe. See the packages on the homepage.
