NEW JERSEY


No official state song.
New Jersey's Unofficial State Song "I'm From New Jersey," passed both Legislative Houses in 1972. However it was not signed into law by the Governor. It remains popular statewide and on the Web.

NEW YORK

I Love New York (state song) - OK, what a challenge this one was to notate! Written in the late 70's, it has a distinct sound... with lots of syncopation, which made notating it seem like a challenging theory homework assignment. So, you have to listen to this to hear what I'm talking about! Do you New Yorkers really sing this song in the schools?




Blow Ye Winds



City Blues



Erie Canal







---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PENNSYLVANIA

Pennsylvania (state song)



When I First Came to This Land



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RHODE ISLAND

Rhode Island's It For Me (state song) - Very pretty - listen here - kinda tricky to notate, btw!



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VERMONT


These Green Mountains (state song) - seems to still have a copyright, sheet music here on the Vermont Arts Council website
