Alex's Official Theme
Song Now Available for Download Worldwide
Alex’s Lemonade Stand’s official theme song is now available
around the world on 40 of the most popular digital platforms, including
ITunes, Rhapsody and MusicMatch Jukebox, for a $.99 download. A generous
50 cents of each download supports the fight against childhood cancer.
The song’s newfound worldwide exposure is the result of a partnership
between Philadelphia International Records and Warner/Rhino Music designed
to make it simple and affordable for anyone, virtually anywhere, to purchase
the tune as a way to support Alex’s Lemonade Stand.
Penned last year by music legend Kenneth Gamble and acclaimed songwriter
Bunny Sigler, the song tells Alex’s inspirational story and encourages
public support for the thousands of lemonade stands held nationwide in
support of her cause. The song is called “Lemonade” and the
lyrics stir up memories of a “brave sweet little girl” who
began selling the drink at the age of four after being diagnosed with
cancer. Alex’s relentless determination to raise money for a cure
despite her failing health dominates the body of the song. The chorus
highlights her chosen product, lemonade.
“Placing the song on the digital download circuit not only increases
its visibility and accessibility but it also provides the universal exposure
it warrants as the fficial theme for this exceptional foundation,” said Chuck Gamble,
executive vice president of Philadelphia International Records. The new
downloadable version of the song features the vocals of a fresh-faced,
three-girl group from Atlantic City named “Clique.” The pre-teen
girls, ages 10, 11 and 12, made a name for themselves performing on the
Disney Channel. They were featured as special guest performers on MTV’s
Making the Band 3 with Hip-Hop mogul Diddy. And they’ve been making
the rounds singing the National Anthem at a multitude of regional and
national events. Grammy-winging producers and songwriters are taking notice
of their talents. And Philadelphia International Records tapped them to
be the new voice of “Lemonade.”
In addition to their generous musical contribution , Philadelphia International
Records regularly hosts lemonade stands and they are generously sponsoring
the entertainment for The Lemon Ball, our first Philadelphia Gala. . WOW
--talk about commitment.
