(Redirected from State song)
::''For the album by John Linnell, see State Songs.''
Forty-nine states of the United States (all except New Jersey) have one or more 'state songs', selected by the state legislature as a symbol of the state.
Some states have more than one official state song, and may refer to some of their official songs by other names; for example, Arkansas officially has two state songs, a state anthem, and a state historical song. Also, Virginia does not presently have a state song by that name, but it has given two songs official recognition under other names.
A few of these songs are among the best-known songs in the U.S., including "Old Folks at Home" (better known as "Swanee River"), "Yankee Doodle", "You Are My Sunshine", "My Old Kentucky Home", and "Home on the Range"; a number of others are popular standards, including "Oklahoma!" (from the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical), Hoagy Carmichael's "Georgia on My Mind", "Tennessee Waltz", "Missouri Waltz", and "On the Banks of the Wabash". Many of the remainder, such as "Here We Have Idaho", "Utah, This is the Place", and "State Song of Maine", are unlikely to be seen anywhere except on lists such as the following.
