New York State Song (Instrumental Midi) I Love New York

"I Love New York" was written and composed by Steve Karmen in 1977 as part of the advertising campaign to promote tourism in the state of New York. In 1980, Governor Hugh Carey declared it as New York's state anthem, although not officially enacted into law.
In a move that was remarkable for Karmen, who is well known for retaining the publishing rights to his songs, he gave the rights to the song to the state for free.

(Song Lyrics)
I love New York...I love New York...

There isn't another like it.
No matter where you go.
And nobody can compare it.
It's win and place and show.
New York is special.
New York is diff'rent' cause there's no place else
on earth quite like New York and that's why

I love New York...I love New York...
