Adding the lyrics

Me and Charlotte came up with quite a few lyrics that we thought stood out over the eras:

Talkin' bout my generation*
Come 'n' dance wiv me*

Let's twist again
Well shake it up baby now*

Let me entertain you

C'mon feel the noise*

We will rock you
Forget all your troubles, come downtown

London calling*


etc...

but we narrowed it down to 5 (the ones marked with a *) and I played around with those.

I did want to include the "Forget all your troubles, come downtown" as I thought it really invited you in and made you sing along (if you are from the era of Petula Clark!) but when I started designing it, we realised it was too wordy, as you can see below, and went with London Calling instead:






















Here are the chosen lyrics as visuals:
