Cute story about how this song was written by a comedian who constantly made fun of Rhode Island and was challenged to write something positive about it instead. I think he succeeded!
This makes me so proud of my home state... originally from RI... moved to MA when I was young, now I’m going to college in RI and I intend of living there the rest of my life. Love my home state!!!
What a very beautiful state! I’m Mexican and I have only visited Texas, but this song is so beautiful! I home to visit it one day! Love from Veracruz, Mexico 😘❤️🇺🇸🇲🇽
Rhode Island has always been my favorite state (I live in Ohio). It may be the thirteenth state, but that just gives the little area of land that could easily fit in Yellow Stone some spirit.
Thank you Frenchies for helping liberate Rhode Island from the British when our own regiments couldn't. Love from Rhode Island to your nation. Vive la France!
Born and raised here. I never take this State for granted. So, so many beautiful areas, and towns. If you've never been, I recommend it. I'd be delighted to give any visitor a personal half day tour of the State and share its history and sights with you!
I live in Japan now but LOVE introducing the state and its many little wonders to Japanese people. Many of the students I've taught have now made added Rhode Island to their bucket lists of places to see in the world!
Lifelong RI resident. I've never heard this. On point though! Keep the other 49! Also - jewelry was once our biggest export. All that closed 30 years ago and factories left empty. Now artist lofts.
I'm a Rhode Islander, too. :) We sang this song as part of a school concert when I was in elementary school (over 20 years ago). I always thought it was beautiful, and that we are lucky indeed to come from such a beautiful state (even our motto of "Hope" is beautiful). And yes, that is a bit sad about the jewellers. I come from a family of fine RI jewellers!
@@alexandrialeonora6542 Cool! Most discount RI because we're so small. Fact is - RI was founded only a few years after the Pilgrams landed on Plymouth Rock in 1630. Roger founded our colony with the help of natives on the principle of basic human decency and equality for all - a concept the puritans soon forgot after the first 'Thanksgiving'. /sorry for history rant
I have a good friend from RI and I used to tease him about coming from the smallest state. I recently viaited him and saw RI for the first time and by golly its amazing. So much to do and see. It is a beautiful place, and I hold much love for it
I live in Westerly. Yeah, that little down you'll hit on the way to the Misquamicut. I've lived in this state for twenty-two years of my life, and despite the negative stigma, and idiotic tourists asking there Quahog is, I love it. I can't imagine living anywhere else. You stay you, Little Rhody.
@Nathan Tessitore Well no wonder! RI has the ability to be JUST as expensive as Mass, but without anything interesting to visit! Just a friendly jab from a fellow new Englander!
@Adolf Hitler I think Rhode works a lil lol because usually we have the worst drivers in the U.S annually sometimes we are second place but usually we are first for having bad driving xD
@Adolf Hitler true, while RI isn't an island, it has over 100 islands including Aquidneck Island (aka Rhode Island), the original location of RI colony (it's an English corruption of the Dutch "Roodt Eylandt", meaning "red island"). Aquidneck is one of the largest islands in the US. Block Island and Conanicut Island are also pretty huge.
Potholes. Worst economy in the nation . Unemployment very high .high taxation . Expensive .... but still beautiful nature . State to visit for a day or 2 but definitely not to live in.. Unless you have to for family reasons
Rhode Island is actually just referring to the large Island of Nantucket, the state's full name is "State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations" so Rhode Island itself is an island, but the rest of the state is made up of the Providence Plantations
Nathan Tessitore That and all the islands in Narragansett Bay Glass block island all add up and people don’t realize how just how long the coast line is if you add all that up
"Arizona" by Mark Lindsay comes to mind. And there is a YT Channel with plenty of Songs by Arizona based Recording Artists. Loy Clingman has about seventeen or so. Miss Donna Fargo has two.🤔🎤💃🎼🎵🎶🎸🎹🎺🎷🥁🎻B.W.
To those who have lived their entire lives in RI- and think it's no big deal (not the state size!)-go live somewhere else for a while and you will come crawling back-I DID !
New York: I have the biggest city California: I have Hollywood North Dakota: I have nuke bases Florida: I get hit by hurricanes alot Georgia: I have Coca Cola And Rhode Island: and I have Hasbro (cause the headquarters for Hasbro is located in Rhode Island in Pawtuck)
It's the greatest state in the U.S. What we practice as Americans started in RI. First to claim independence from King George and last to sign the Constitution to ensure it's perfection. We are the greatest state you clowns. Enjoy the song 😁
First state invaded during the revolution (the Brits marched on NY from RI), first state to capture a English naval vessel, produced the most feared general of the thirteen colonies (Greene), first to abolish slavery (in its colonial charter/constitution), first state in the industrial revolution.
I got the fuck out of this state as soon as I was old enough to. Came back for two years out of necessity... then right back out the door. Never going back, all I miss is the coffee milk. screw this place
We should move the Sweet Home Alabama comments here. according to Harvard Law Review "Rhode Island has repealed its criminal incest statute..." from wikipedia legality of incest
It may be small, but it's 6% bigger at low tide!

It's actually nice in here it's pretty sunny rn
I was born in Rhode Island and I am proud of my state
it's pretty funny when your anthem is longer than your state
Rhode Island has the longest coast line
Ow
4000 miles of costline
Dont hate this state .Rhode Island is most of oldest usa territors
@@capriomrowkicz1751 well that is wrong Delaware was the oldest state but don't hate Rhode island stil
What a terrific blend of naturalistic poetry, subtle sociopolitical commentary, and a straightforward explanation of exactly what a lighthouse does.
my school music teacher Kathryn Chester helped with this.she is a music teacher at Curvin-Mccabe Elementary school.
Rhode Island has always been my favorite state (I live in Ohio). It may be the thirteenth state, but that just gives the little area of land that could easily fit in Yellow Stone some spirit.
Very beautiful song. Greetings from France, from the other side of the Atlantic ! =)

I agree Cumberland forever.
Shout out to providence the capital after Newport was
Nice I actually live here, I used to live in California LA but we moved here now
This made me so proud and honored to be a Rhode Islander.
@Nathan Tessitore sure
@Nathan Tessitore your right but what you first said sounded pretty rude so I said sure
@Nathan Tessitore u ok?
@Nathan Tessitore where do you live?
Me tooo
Lived in Rhode Island all my life and just found out about our anthem. Nice anthem.
Me too
Me three

Best state in New England, so proud to call RI my new home 🏘️🏘️🏘️
Greetings from Knightsville, RI! #RaimondoForPresident
I want to live here so bad ! Greetings from California
Hello I uses to live in California but we moves here because My mom's brother lived there.
HP Lovecraft approves of his state song.
I certainly know “You Come From Rhode Island” and “We’re Off On the Road to Rhode Island” by Seth MacFarline, But NEVER heard this tune!
Why doesn't the singer have any recognition? She mastered this song (but the "yeah~" at the end is so extra...)
I have a good friend from RI and I used to tease him about coming from the smallest state. I recently viaited him and saw RI for the first time and by golly its amazing. So much to do and see. It is a beautiful place, and I hold much love for it
This song reminds me of when I used to live in Warwick ri best years of my life
Can Dropkick Murphys make a cover of this? Its missing that new england punk feel.
Lol, Some of these State songs seems like musical songs. I like it.
Who’s here to see what Cody from Alternative History Hub will say about this state song. 🤣
this song hits hard imo but it does mentions rhode island alot he will probably give it a A or B
How beautiful! Wow!
I live in Westerly. Yeah, that little down you'll hit on the way to the Misquamicut. I've lived in this state for twenty-two years of my life, and despite the negative stigma, and idiotic tourists asking there Quahog is, I love it.
I can't imagine living anywhere else. You stay you, Little Rhody.
IKR! You can't get any more interesting, unique, and of course beautiful, than this state.
ayy me too
Westerly is a beautiful area
Aww~
When your anthem admits you’re freezing
it has 20% of the nations historic sights!
@Nathan Tessitore Well no wonder! RI has the ability to be JUST as expensive as Mass, but without anything interesting to visit! Just a friendly jab from a fellow new Englander!
Life long Rhode Islander. I actually can't stand living in Pawtucket, but this was state pride here.
Move to Warwick. Or Providence, even. Or Cranston.
The tiniest state with the needlessly longest name.
The state of Rhode island and Providence plantations 👌
@Nathan TessitoreI don't see why a plantation is a type of farm it doesn't necessarily mean it's racist plus the long name is kinda funny
@Adolf Hitler I think Rhode works a lil lol because usually we have the worst drivers in the U.S annually sometimes we are second place but usually we are first for having bad driving xD
@@hollyhock9638 worse than New Jersey drivers, it's really hard to imagine
@Adolf Hitler true, while RI isn't an island, it has over 100 islands including Aquidneck Island (aka Rhode Island), the original location of RI colony (it's an English corruption of the Dutch "Roodt Eylandt", meaning "red island").

Ah Rhode Island, My State’s Daycation spot. Just kidding sort of, much love from Connecticut. At least your guys anthem is actually about your State.
God Bless Rhode Island And it’s people
Thanks

Rhode Island was the first state to cede from the British Empire. 💪👌
I had no idea that Rhode Island had a state song! cool!
thank you
I live in Rhode island
Lots of pride for the only state smaller than pierce County, Washington
I live here! Like the song, but too cold! 🥶
I mean it's New England, ofc it's too cold, especially in the winter.
Pawtucket boy here.
I like this song.
"Residents who speak their minds" 🤣🤣🤣 ... soooo true! Don't screw with us, we'll tell you where to go & how to get there.
Nice and beautiful for ever.
Ever since 1920, great state
Muito bonita essa música, embora não é brasileira
Cranston , RI for life
i lived here my hole life and never heard this song

You should remake it. It's hard to read the text and the background pictures are not clear.
Why use text with white background?

Land of Lovecraft
This is one of the only state songs or.even national.anthems.that doesn't sound British, but the video still shows the f-ing red coats.
Was there an episode of Family Guy that had this song?
Lol no mention of Pawtucket or central falls cuz we suck XD
I used to live here.
Thank you i wasn't thouth this in school
It's funny as fuck cuz we're so corrupt XD "No longer unaware" my ass!
Potholes. Worst economy in the nation . Unemployment very high .high taxation . Expensive ....
but still beautiful nature .
State to visit for a day or 2 but definitely not to live in.. Unless you have to for family reasons
It’s funny because Rhode Island isn’t surrounded by the see it is not an island
I meant sea
Rhode Island is actually just referring to the large Island of Nantucket, the state's full name is "State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations" so Rhode Island itself is an island, but the rest of the state is made up of the Providence Plantations
Nantucket is in Massachusetts. Aquidneck island (Portsmouth, Middletown, and Newport) is "Rhode Island".
there are several other islands as well especially block island

Nobody should live here
@@wyliem 😂 Nobody should move to Texas.
@@bakingtourist9245 sure
Do North Dakota's state song
This is my states Anthem 😐 GURLLLLL BYEEEEEE
This is a great song. But I can't help but notice this seems a POV of a wealthy Rhode Islander and/or *wealthy* New Yorker who summers in Newport.
Do I even exist?
For me, the anthem of Rhode Island is Road to Rhode Island by family guy
I'm doing a report on Rhode Island
cool 😎
New York: I have the biggest city
California: I have Hollywood
North Dakota: I have nuke bases
Florida: I get hit by hurricanes alot
Georgia: I have Coca Cola
And Rhode Island: and I have Hasbro (cause the headquarters for Hasbro is located in Rhode Island in Pawtuck)
😘😘🇧🇷🇧🇷❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸
Who's singing this? :)
Yassss I can do meh report nowwww

It's the greatest state in the U.S. What we practice as Americans started in RI. First to claim independence from King George and last to sign the Constitution to ensure it's perfection. We are the greatest state you clowns. Enjoy the song 😁
