  • I am a native Arizonan - 5th generation - as my great, great grandparents helped settle Mesa in 1883. I love this state and its beauty. I hear songs about other states all the time, and I thought it was high time a new song was written about AZ! The video to this song is just stunning. Cameron Trejo is responsible for it and he did an incredible job. Stephen Moyer produced this song and as you will hear, did a great job. I hope you enjoy this little road trip all over Arizona. If you're not careful, you may find yourself loading up a moving van and joining us!

    Born and raised. Went all around the world in the US Navy and came right back here. There is no better place on earth. No serious Natural disasters, a little dry heat in the summer. A Ocean 4 hours away, Snow 4hours away (from where I'm at) can't beat Arizona for living.

    I got to Arizona from Honduras Central America on 1995 for the first time and let me tell you... it was love at first sight.. I was 15 years old and now that I'm older my heart is split into 2 pieces.. 1 for my own country and 1 for my beautiful Arizona. I love everything about this dry land and the amazing people that I'm been sharing this state too.

    I grew up and lived in Arizona my whole life . But in 2005 my husband and myself and my children moved in North Dakota I never ever return to Arizona because it was so hot it made me very very ill. And I'm sad to say that my dad passed away just recently and when I got to Arizona and before I got into the house I was freaking out and crying and then this song came on and I am a country music fanatic and I never heard the song before in my life. Now I believe this song is to me for my dad he sent to me from having to give me the courage and the strength to go on. I love you and I miss you so much Daddy rest in peace

    Just discovered this. It has a Kevin Fowler "Texas Forever" vibe to it. I have a dual love for Texas and Arizona, but am probably heading back to AZ (for the 5th time) next February which tells my love for Arizona. I have tried to take myself out of Arizona a few times, but obviously can not take Arizona out of me so it is time for me to give up fighting and admit I am an Arizonan to my bones. Great song!

    This was an exceptional song, I just moved to where I was born (California) but I miss Arizona as half my life was living there. This song made me homesick yet encourages me to work hard now to make my way back to Arizona where I call home. Thank you for making this song, it's a beautiful song. Especially on Arizona's Birthday, such a beautiful song to match with a beautiful state.

    Husband is a native, but met in Texas. In good old town of El Paso at Rosas Cantina he fell in love with a Mexican girl ❤
    Our son was born in TX but named him Bear Arizona 😊
    We moved to Gold Canyon in 2021 and this songs sums up exactly how I feel about calling this place home now.
    Thank you Mike Broomhead for featuring this song on your program. That’s how I first heard it.
    Now it’s our son’s favorite. Constantly asks to listen to it. Even knows the words by memory and he’s only 4.

    I was born and grew up in southern California. When I moved here with my parents I was angry and did not like it at all. Going from the city to small town outside Florence was like a culture shock. After almost 17 years here in Arizona I have grown to love this state and have no desire to live anywhere else.

    Excellent is all I got for this song.
    Part of my family is from Flagstaff
    I go back usually at least once a year
    I always sort of dread coming home to Texas… its not thats its bad at all.
    Its just never felt like home.
    A few months ago I had really tough time going home. It sort of gut punched me
    I wasn’t going home… I was leaving it.
    Then from out of no where comes this song. Coincidence? Maybe, but I think it was confirmation to clean up my business in Texas and go where my heart is.
    When I go back, its a one way trip and thats all in the works now.
