Sugar Sugar by the Archies “you are my candy girl” is a very catchy song about sugar which i think would work well as the audience enter, as it repetitively sings about sugar and honey, things that are very sweet which is the majority of the Public’s pre conceptions that diabetes is purely caused by eating too much sugar.  This video is funny as it shows that having too much sugar can metaphorically “beat you up”, destroying your body, however i don’t want people to remember a cartoon boy getting beaten up by a can of coke, yes i get bruises but that’s from injecting to try stop sugary foods and drinks affecting me.

I need it now
When I’m without you
I’m something weak

And it’s killing me when you’re away, ooh, baby,

Make it alright
Need a little sweetness in my life

My broken pieces
You pick them up
Don’t leave me hanging, hanging
Come give me some
When I’m without ya
I’m so insecure
You are the one thing, one thing
I’m living for

“Let them go, all the one’s tryna get in the door
I’mma go where they all couldn’t go
Up a floor, up a floor, up a floor, oh”

Repetition of the word levels sticks in my head. To do- make a mash up of songs that relate to levels, sugar, Nick Jonas also wrote a song about his Pancreas as he’s also type 1 diabetic. However, it’s a little too cheesey for my liking, i prefer to use not so obvious things, although saying that i do like the idea of juxtaposing people’s pre conceptions about not being allowed to eat sugar- and then playing the song “sugar, sugar, you are my candy girl” at the beginning of my piece to set the tone.
