Craig Hordlow Releases New Single 'The Al Franken Song,' Paying Tribute to His Hero Al Franken

NAPLES, Fla. - EntSun -- Naples, FL – In an unforgettable and candid new single, Craig Hordlow, a rising talent in music and poetry, shares his encounter with his hero, Al Franken, in a situation that many would consider awkwardly relatable. Titled "The Al Franken Song," the single captures a humorous and introspective moment when Hordlow found himself standing next to the former U.S. Senator and comedian Al Franken at a urinal. Faced with this unexpected opportunity to connect with one of his greatest inspirations, Hordlow struggled to find the perfect words in the two minutes before Franken "zips up his fly" (as quoted in the song).

The track, with its unique storytelling, humor, and heartfelt reflections, explores how everyday interactions can leave us replaying moments, thinking about "the perfect thing to say" only to realize them later, sometimes just in our daydreams. Hordlow sings, "And then when it's said, it's only in your daydreams," highlighting the universal experience of missed opportunities.
