  • I Love New York Radio Ad Song, circa 1977-1980, written by Steve Karmen. Lyrics:
    You're planning a long vacation / or just a day or two / you're finally on vacation / you're wondering what to do / you want some place that's different / you want some place that's special / you can have a great vacation in New York / And to say "I Love New York" / You can climb a mountain / And there's such great sailing / We can all go camping / 'Cause it's so exciting / New York is different / You know, New York is special / You can have a great vacation in New York / ... / What a great vacation!

I hate NY gov't, but 'I LOVE NEW YORK'!

    What started out as the tourism theme song for NY later became the state song the Empire State of New York. New York State didn't have a state song like other states till Steve Karman wrote I love New York during a state wide crises and lack of funding, this song saved New York State which is why it later became the state song. Haven't herd this since the late 80's to the early 90's I miss New York State, now living in Virginia. New York is Number 1.

      I know that. I'm a Long Islander and my best friend is from Westchester. It drives him nuts when I say he's from upstate but to we from Suffolk County, anything north of the Bronx is just that! I learned to ski in the Catskills, grew up going to the Duchess County Fair as a kid, vacationed north of Watertown, got the crap kicked out of me in Rochester and play in a band with a guy from Binghamton. Two brothers-in-law of mine are Orangemen, I sail on both LI Sound and Tappan Zee (Nyack) and am well aware that there are two types of people in the world: 1- Those born in The Empire State and 2- Who gives a damn? (Macintosh apple, anyone?)

    Anyway it's about the stories behind some of the greatest ads, & agencies in "the business" ( gag ) & this is 1 of the Ad Campaigns profiled.
    I grew up in B-More & DC @ the time & although we didn't admit it;
    WE (Md) LOVED N.Y.!

    You can buy software online called "Tunebite." Google it and any video you watch on UA-cam, you can use the "surf and catch" part of Tunebite software to download any audio MP3 of any video you watch. You can probably get free software too to get the mp3's, but not sure if I'd trust it. Tunebite also is used to convert Itune M4p file songs to more friendly MP3 versions.
