What does Florida's state song represent?

In the mid-19th century, the song ``Swanee River'' was a smash hit and helped promote Florida as an idyllic place to live. So enduringly popular, in 1935 the Legislature named it the state song. \n----------------\nStephen C. Foster wrote "The Swanee River (Old Folks at Home)" in 1851. After Foster wrote the song, he sold it to E. P. Christy, a businessman who operated a series of minstrel shows.\nFoster is reported to have chosen the term "Swanee" because its two-syllable cadence fit nicely into the music he had composed. The composer was not familiar with the Florida section of the Suwannee River, because he never visited the state. A memorial center at White Springs, Florida, honors Foster, who authored about 200 popular songs during his prolific career.\nRepresentative S. P. Robineau of Miami introduced House Concurrent Resolution No. 22 in 1935, designating "Swanee River" as the official state song. It replaced "Florida, My Florida," which had been adopted as the state song in 1913.\nThe Suwannee River flows in a southerly direction from the Okeefenokee Swamp in Georgia to the Gulf of Mexico in Florida. The river separates the Florida panhandle from the rest of the state

100% Country.\n\nYou have Nothin to Lose, so chase after that Badonkadonk.  If you have Friends in Low places, just think of The World and Summertime, because its not the Last Day of My Life.  When the Stars go Blue, Dont Forget to Remember Me.  You know its A Little Too Late, If Your Going Through Hell.  Although Life Aint Always Beautiful, Everytime I Hear Your Name, I remember the time that you told me that Size Matters.\n\nMe and My Gang decided to Settle for a Slowdown and just Bring It on Home.  The gang told me to just do The Dance and Live LIke You Were Dying, I said God Bless this Broken Road, and did the dance.\n\nMy Homes In Alabama, Sweet Home Alabama and if Tomorrow Never Comes and When the Sun Comes Down, I pray, Jesus Take the Wheel.  Shes an Old Flame, a Redneck Woman, but we keep running into Closed Doors, shes my Baby Girl and I Could Not Ask for More.  Before I went to see her again I found a Soldier who would Paint me a Birmingham, he was Shameless, but he painted it in The Chair.  \n\nOkay, now, I'm Already There, but For the Grace of God I need Beer for my Horses, I was Amazed at how much they drank.  Since she's not home, I wish I didnt have to wait One More Day, before this Fancy, Rhinestone Cowboy gives her Long Slow Kisses.  Some Beach.

Florida is derived from "flowery Easter" in Spanish.  The name comes from the fact that Juan Ponce de Leon landed on the Florida coast during the Easter season ("Pascua") on April 2, 1513.  In respect of the season and the beautiful flowers he saw, he named this land "Florida."

A better question might be who HASN'T sung it. It was written back in 1960 by Felice and Boudleaux Bryant, and is actually the state song of Tennessee. The first ones to record it, may have been the Osborne Brothers, but that's still open for debate.

Florida is celebrating 100 years of Florida football. The orange helmet is the current one, and the white one is the old time helmet, I'm assuming from the very first football team. I'm a student there and we all got T-shirts with that logo. Go Gators! =)

C’mon.)\n\nYou get the limo out front.\nHottest styles. Every shoe. Every color.\nYeah, when you’re famous it can be kind of fun.\nIt’s really you, but no one ever discovers.\nIn some ways, you’re just like all your friends.\nBut on stage, you’re a star.\n\nYou get the best of both worlds. \nChill it out. Take it slow. Then you rock out the show.\nYou get the best of both worlds.\nMix it all together and you know that it’s the best of both worlds.\n\nThe best of both worlds. (Yeah!)\n\nYou go to movie premieres.\n(Is that Orlando Bloom?)\nHear your songs on the radio.\nLiving two lives is a little weird. (yeah)\nBut school’s cool ‘cause nobody knows.\n\nYeah you get to be a small-town girl.\nBut big-time when you play your guitar.\n\nYou get the best of both worlds. \nChill it out. Take it slow. Then you rock out the show.\nYou get the best of both worlds.\nMix it all together and you know that it’s the best of both—you know-- \nThe best of both worlds!\n\nPictures and autographs.\nYou get your face in all the magazines.\nThe best part is that\nYou get to be whoever you want to be!\n\n(Best! Best!)\nYeah, the best of both!\n(Best! Best!)\nYou got the best of both!\n(Best! Best!)\nC’mon the best of both!\n\nWho’d have thought that a girl like me\nWould double as a superstar?\n\nYou get the best of both worlds. \nChill it out. Take it slow. Then you rock out the show.\nYou get the best of both worlds.\nMix it all together and you know that it’s the best—\n\nYou get the best of both worlds. \nWithout the shades and the hair, you can go anywhere.\nYou get the best of both, girl.\nMix it all together—oh yeah—\nIt’s so much better ‘cause you know you got the best of both worlds.\n^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\n\n“Who Said?” Lyrics\n\nI’m more than just\nYou’re average girl\nI like to turn me up\nAnd show the world\n(Oh yeah!)\n\n‘Cause some can talk the talk\nBut this girl just wants to rock\nI’m individual\nI’m not like anyone\n\nI can be glamorous \nJust like you see in all the magazines\nI can be cool as ice \nOr anything I want to be\n\nWho said, who said\nI can’t be Superman?\nI say, I say\nThat I know I can\n\nWho said, who said\nI won’t be president?\nI say, I say\nYou aint seen nothing yet\n(Oh yeah! Yeah!)\n\nGo on and make some noise\nEvery girl has her choice\nTo lead their own parade\nI do it my way!\n\nI can be soft and sweet\nOr louder than the radio\nI can be sophisticated\nOr totally go (totally go...totally go)\nOut of control (out of control)\n\nWho said, who said\nI can’t be Superman?\nI say, I say \nThat I know I can\n\nWho said, who said\nI’m not electrifying?\nI say, I say—\n\nThere’s no holdin’ back\nThen get right on track\nCause you control the game\nSo let ‘em know your name\n\nNo limitations on imagination.\nImagine that!\n\n(Yeah!)\n\nWho said, who said\nI can’t be worldwide?\nI say, I say \nTime is on my side\n\nWho said, who said\nI can’t be ten feet tall?\nI say, I say,\nThat I can have it all\n\nWho said, who said\nI can’t be Superman?\nI say, I say \nThat I know I can\n\nWho said, who said\nI won’t be president\nI say, I say\nYou aint seen nothing yet\nYou aint seen nothing yet\n\n(Whoa! \nYeah!\nWho said?\nC’mon!\nYeah!\nThat’s right!)\n^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\n\n“This is the Life” Lyrics\n\nTake the world\nShake and stir\nAnd that’s what I got goin’ on\n\nI throw my cares up in the air\nAnd I don’t think they’re comin’ down\nYeah, I love how it feels right now\n\nThis is the life\nHold on tight\nAnd this is the dream\nIt’s all I need\nYou never know where you’ll find it\nAnd I’m gonna take my time, yeah\nI’m still getting it right\nThis is the life\n\nTakin’ in a whole new scene\nAnd I ‘m swimmin’ with a new cro

And I answered Florida and the person after me who was from Pennsyvania agreed Florida. \n\nPennsyvania has a great football tradition as well. \n\nBut don't ask questions you think you have the answer to, but which are open to debate unless you're prepared to have people disagree with you.
