I love Ani DiFranco and it was such a dream to collaborate on this song with her. We wanted to write a light and happy love song, and I really think Captain Cameltoe is just that. She played everything, and sang backup, encouraging the captain onward. I sang/spoke the lead, and we did it all in her home studio last spring, surrounded by vintage instruments and modern recording equipment. Afterwards we ate alligator cheesecake and played the song loud – its bumping beat is so addictive and powerful. Now when I hear the song, it makes me feel like I am flying.
This video is the perfect way to capture what the song is – thanks Robert!! I love being this superhero! It’s awesome. And I need a tattoo of the logo. Hooray Captain Cameltoe!

Loved it!!!! Two of my favorite people collaborating is awesome!
That was great. I especially loved the animation.
[...] This Ani Di Franco/Margaret Cho animated music video for “Captain Cameltoe,” off Cho’s new album Cho Dependent, is something you’ll appreciate fully the more stoned you get. (JK! Don’t do drugs, kids!) But I can’t say my 16-year-old self isn’t thrilled two of her real-life superheroes finally teamed up as Captain Cameltoe and Righteous Babe. And who doesn’t need to hear “I’m a freaking rock star superhero bitch” on repeat?! New personal mantra, what what! [MargaretCho.com] [...]

Margaret,
Not in reply to this post, I wanted to tell you I am reading “I Am the One That I Want” since seeing it on a UCLA Asian American Literature class reading list a few years ago. I think it’s great. Asians are so woefully underrepresented in the media and it’s just good to see you out there.
