LOVE IT... I'm a Michigan girl... travel all over the world and find myself back to my Michigan roots. And what a great song.. Thanks Ruth and the boys for that.
Love it! :-) Was born a Western Michigan girl. Love Lake Michigan in the summer. Boating in Spring Lake, Grand Haven,& Holland. Some of the best times of my life. Moved to Scottsdale, Az in '95. Still point on my 'Michigan ' hand to show where I spent my first 25 years. Funny, we are the only state that does the 'hand point'. ;-)
I'm a Michigan girl who moved to Sweden to marry a Swede. We're flying back home to Michigan in two days, and the tears are just streaming down my face from this beautiful song! I'll always be a Michigan girl!!
I was raised in Michigan and went to college at NMU in Marquette. I am very happy in my 40 year home in California but for some reason I cry every single time I hear this song!💕💕
You should move back to Michigan! California is so bad now! I don't know why you would ever leave Michigan. I wouldn't, that's for sure! I am moving to Michigan soon as well!
I'm a Michigan girl -- born here, raised here -- and no plans to leave. Gorgeous pictures, (thanks for showing my alma mater, Central Michigan University!!) Great song. Am adding a link to my Facebook page right now. Thanks again!
Love, love, love everything about this song: the words, the pictures, and the beautiful voices, harmonizing, and instruments.!! I was born and raised in Michigan, traveled quite a bit, but, like my Daddy said, "Michigan has it all!!". God Bless you dear lady for writing such an amazing song, and yes, Ellen Kellay, she reminds me of Ann Murray also. I'm planning a 2-3 week trip in the U.P. this summer. I feel blessed. Thank you so much. I will buy this song.
feeling so validated that wherever we Michigan girls may go, we are still Michigan girls at heart. Always a Michigan girl....love this song! thanks for posting!
Fantastic song! Truly makes me a "true" future Michigander! I'm moving to Michigan very soon, to achieve the best quality of life and best state in the country!
What a wonderful video. I am always amazed at how blessed I am to live in Michigan for 64 years. I never get tired of the four seasons. I cherish them and look forward to each one. However, I love the springtime and the fall the best.
I've listened to this song lots of times and always tear up. I'm a Michigan girl currently living in Sweden, and I always ache to come back to Michigan for my annual visits (together with my Swedish husband).
Awesome song and video!! I love all of the seasons in Michigan, hard to pick favorite. I am a Michigan girl!!!!! as are my 4 sisters! I love heading up north to one sisters in Traverse City and going across the bridge to the UP is always a memorable experience. The lighthouse in Grand Marais where Lake Superior beats against the rock walls. The water is cold but the air is clean and the sky is clear. Going to order my hat now!!!
DIfreighter watcher OMG... WATCHER.... Thank you very much for sharing this with Lisa for my postcard! It's completely perfect! I just watched this and was brought to tears.... I love you lady! Again thank you....
How lovely - has me sobbing. Returned to Michigan after 30 yeas and am preparing to leave again, but this song has me re-thinking that. Thank you for such beauty.
Thanks for the kind words from so many of you--the song is what makes this video--Ruth Bloomquist's words hit the mark perfectly for those of us living in our beautiful mitten of Michigan.
I was born in Flint, my father and his mother in the Breckinridge area, and my mother and her mother and father in Escanaba. We moved out of state when I was 16, much to my sadness. I have returned a few times. I love this song.
thanks for this beautiful "virtual visit" back home to Michigan. the longer I live away, the deeper my roots and love for Michigan grow. Please share more of your lovely music and pictures? More from Muskegon/western MI area?
Lisa Houserman Lisa dear one so glad you found my friends video, miss you and the chat friends but I must go my own way, perhaps someday we will find common ground free from Propaganda and clarity of critical thinking.
Even my university. Downhill skiing, the Mighty Mac, Tiger stadium, the maples in Autumn, the rivers and streams, the Ren Cen. I cried. I'm from the little finger and later, the base of the thumb. Thank you.
I was born in Detroit......I dont remember anything else......except...when I see these pics a vague familiarity...I was a child.....they moved. In New Hampshire now.
This song, video photographs and all make me almost "Homesick". It shows the beauty and grandeur of a great state and the great places to live or visit. This the Michigan you won't see on the National News. Too bad because most people don't know what they are missing..
I heard this song played when a relative died in Michigan. It is a kleenex song. Even though we were transferrerd many years to Texas, I am still a "Michigan Girl", walking on a Sandy Beach and shuffling through the fallen leaves. Proud to call it home. I miss this beautiful piece of Heaven.
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!! I'm from Marquette Michigan on Lake Superior. Left for a while, but had to return. The U.P. gets in your blood - and your heart. Now it we can just get rid of Gov. Snyder
@LKDoone Go to their website (on video) drop them an email and they're available for purchase. And, no, that isn't my website, nor do I profit from the sale of the hats, CD's, etc. However, I happen to own one of those hats and absolutely LOVE wearing it when I travel around the country. Ruth & Max Bloomquist will be in concert July 28, 2012 at Zellie's Opry House in Howard City, MI. See "Michigan Girl" performed live! Google it!
I love the song but would like to edit the video with shots of more of our wonderful lighthouses, sailing, more shoreline shots, countryside, dunes, many more wonderful shots could be used. do love the song though

Excellent video, superb band and outstanding singing. Makes me want to book a trip to Michigan.
Good luck.
Make the trip to the Mitten of Michigan, cross the Mighty Mac and enjoy ALL of Michigan!
Sweet anthem for Michigan. Beautifully sung. Nicely played. lyrics are pure Michigander.

Would not live anywhere else. Love being a Michigander!

I remember as a kid seeing the Big mac bridge for the first time, it changed me forever.
Is this available on iTunes?
Where were the snowy street pictures taken near the beginning? It really looks like Trenton!:O
Just a few miles from my west Michigan home.
The singer sounds much like Anne Murray from Canada. Beautiful voice nevertheless.
I'm a Michigan Girl too!
I love the song but would like to edit the video with shots of more of our wonderful lighthouses, sailing, more shoreline shots, countryside, dunes, many more wonderful shots could be used. do love the song though
Great suggestions...but I pretty much had to use what I had available at the time. Hope you enjoyed it!
