~ Secret 7 - John Lennon ~



This is considered a legendary track with really heartfelt and meaningful lyrics which is why my first instinct before thoughts on the design was to fully read and study them.

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one


Essentially the song is about John Lennon's dreams about a peaceful world without war, famine and hate.

As an initial source of brain exercise to begin thinking of concepts visually for this brief. This application allows you to create colourful visuals according to the letters you type.

This allowed me to begin thinking out of the box for this particular design. Most of my designs so far were quite directing informed either by the lyrics or the artist themselves. I feel 'Imagine' is still a really impactful song on society as it addresses issues to do with in-equality. Some of the the current issues with society that are relevant to this song in contemporary culture include...

- Sexism
- Racism
- Transphobia
- Homophobia
