When you think of a musical state, I’m positive Alaska doesn’t come to mind. We’re more of a scenic state with an intriguing past rather than one steeped in musical history. Interestingly, most songs mentioning Alaska use the name of our state in the title rather than the rest of the song, and the ones that do mention Alaska in the song generally use it in a metaphorical sense refering to Alaska as a whimsical, far away place. These 8 songs will make you proud to be an Alaskan, we promise!

2. “To The Wild Country” by John Denver
