It’s official!
I am now the world’s record holder for the fastest songwriter!
I wrote a theme song for Fran Capo, The Guiness Book of World Records holder for Fastest Talking Female as well as Deepest Book signing and Highest book signing.
I talked to Fran for about a half an hour on the phone. About 30 minutes later I’d written her theme song, “Adventure Girl”. A few hours later I recorded it with my friend Joe Mennonna and it was on it’s way to being played on national radio. So in less than 24 hours it went from concept to creation to broadcast.
Even Fran was impressed. So she submitted my song to Record Holders Republic who officially recognized it just this past week! Check out my world record!
Co-incidentally (BTW there ARE no coincidences!) I will be taping an episode of Fran Capo’s new TV show tomorrow. I’ll let you know when it will be aired.
While I’m at the taping tuesday am 3/24/09, my friend Joe Mennonna will be on the View as part of Kevin Bacon’s band. Without Joe’s being available for an instant recording session I wouldn’t be the fabulous world record holder that I am now ;o).
I want to thank Fran Capo, Joe Mennonna, all my fans, my mom and dad, my sister Lynn, my high school band teacher, Ernie Schefflein, my piano teacher Marcia Slater, my 4th grad teacher….
:o)
Here’s the song:

Adventure Girl – Fran Capo Theme Song 12/12/08 Song #390
Adventure girl
Explore your world
Live it fast
And make it last
Live it bright
And make it light
Adventure girl
Explore your world
Fast talking not afraid of walking
Or ashamed of asking questions
Living life relentlessly and
Open to the power of suggestion
Record breaking motivation concentration
Education passion
Rapid fire rhyming and you
Know that everything is in the timing
Adventure girl
Explore your world
Look alive
Get outside
Learn to climb
Learn to dive
Adventure girl
Explore your world
Inspiration, perspiration,
Guinness book of records domination
Collaboration, exploration
Burning hope for future generations
Fast talking not afraid of walking
Or ashamed of asking questions
Living life relentlessly and
Open to the power of suggestion
Adventure girl
Explore your world
Relentless love
To climb above
Relentless thirst
To be the first
Adventure girl
Explore your world
Persistence, persistence, persistence, persistence, persistence
