Download Adventure Girl: The Fran Capo Theme Song
You've Got To Hear The Story Behind This Song!

She's the Guinness Book of World Records " Fastest Talking Female."  She also holds the record for the deepest book signing (at the Titanic) and the highest book signing (Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa). Fran Capo is an amazing dynamo of "can do it" in a world full of people saying "it's impossible".
I was introduced to Fran by Kathy McAfee who's Marketing Motivation seminar inspired me to write a theme song. Well, if you've been following my blog at all, you'll know that last week I posted a music video of the song "Motivation" that I wrote for Kathy.
Fran Capo is on Kathy McAfee's e-mail list and she watched the video and started thinking about how cool it would be to have her own theme song...
So after checking out Fran's site: www.FranCapo.com I was pretty impressed. This is a woman who really and truly lives!
While I was checking out her website, I got that little chime that tells me I've gotten an email. It was Fran! So I emailed her back and then just hauled off and picked up that old fashioned thing...the PHONE!
We actually tawked person to person! It was a modern day miracle.  ) ( I mean, have YOU tried to get anybody on the phone lately?)
Anyway, so we talked about her essence and her vision and her philosphy...and I started to feel the old familiar feeling.....
so I got off the phone and I wrote the song in a veryveryveryshorttime!
I called her back to let her know the song was done. Even Fran Capo the worlds fastest talking woman was impressed. She thought I was just calling back to get the info she had promised to e-mail me. Nope. The song was done.
So then I called my recording genius Joe Mennonna up and asked him what his availability was for recording and arranging the song...unfortunately he was getting ready to go out of town for a month to perform with the Kevin Bacon Band but he said, "if you can get by with an acoustic version we could record it this afternoon. to produce it with a full drum set would be too involved and take too long, but I could squeeze youin for a couple of hours and we can get something done."
so I jumped in the car yesterday afternoon and for once I-95 was flowing in the direction I wanted to go.
Boom! Recorded it.  Fran will be using it in all of her radio and TV appearances like now!
listen in for yourself!
