A taste of the era
The soundtrack of her teenage years
Born in the mid-sixties, Mum grew up with the hum of vinyl on a turntable and the flicker of colour TV. The late seventies brought her the first chords of Blondie, the rush of disco and the excitement of Saturday night dramas. She'd watch the news from a bulky set, trade cassette tapes with friends and mark the calendar for the next big pop hit. Those sounds still echo when she spins around the kitchen, her feet tapping to a beat that feels forever fresh.
A worked example
Meet Sharon, our example Mum
Sharon isn't real, but many mums share her spirit. Below is the kind of detail families send us, and how we turn it into a song.
Sharon
Turns 60, dances to Blondie, garden plans that never end.
- Dances in the kitchen to Blondie like it's 1979
- Raised three on a nurse's wage
- Keeps every school report in a box
- Cries at adverts and anything emotional
- Promises to downsize the garden every year
What her family told us
Mum turns 60 and still dances round the kitchen to Blondie like it's 1979. She raised three of us on a nurse's wage, kept every school report, and cries at literally anything, adverts included. She says she's downsizing her garden this year. She says that every year. Nobody believes her.

Verse 1
Sixty candles and the kitchen radio's onBlondie's playing like it's 1979You're spinning round in your socks before the toast is doneSome things don't change, and Mum, that's just fine
Chorus
Here's to Sharon, still dancing in the kitchen lightThree kids raised up on a nurse's wage, and you did it rightEvery school report is tucked away somewhere safe and dryYou cry at the adverts, and Mum, so do IHappy birthday, Sharon, sixty years and still shining bright
Verse 2
You said this year you're finally downsizing the gardenBut we've heard that story every single springYou'll be out there potting roses till your fingers can't feel nothingSome promises are just your favourite thing
Chorus
Here's to Sharon, still dancing in the kitchen lightThree kids raised up on a nurse's wage, and you did it rightEvery school report is tucked away somewhere safe and dryYou cry at the adverts, and Mum, so do IHappy birthday, Sharon, sixty years and still shining bright
Bridge
Twelve hour shifts and you still came home singingDebbie Harry blaring, the pans still ringingYou gave us everything you had to giveNow let us give it back, and watch you live
Chorus
Here's to Sharon, still dancing in the kitchen lightThree kids raised up on a nurse's wage, and you did it rightEvery school report is tucked away somewhere safe and dryYou cry at the adverts, and Mum, so do IHappy birthday, Sharon, sixty years and still shining bright
Outro
Keep the garden wild, keep the radio loudWe're so glad you're ours, we're so proudHappy birthday, Sharon, dance on through
