Performing his song, Rhode Island Song

As 1999 grew to a close, gala events and grand celebrations around the world were being planned to celebrate the turn of a new millennium, the year 2000. One of the largest celebrations in the U.S.A. took place in Providence, RI at the Rhode Island Convention Center. James Bennett, then the chairman and CEO of the RICC, headed up the planning of the event. Bennett went a step further than most to commemorate the historical event by contacting successful New England singer/songwriter, Dana Kamide asking him to write and record a new song about the state of Rhode Island for the modern era after its recent charge in growth and development.

Rhode Island Song

If I could be with you anywhere, and we wouldn't have a care in this big ole world...now the Ocean State is where...If I... could fly to you no time I'd waste, to see your smilin' face... and Rhode Island would be the place... where we will...

Take a walk along that golden sand... at the beach of Narragann-SET sail out on the sound... the Rhode Island Sound has that... cool sort of dazzle in the music found at the Newport Jazz'll, carry your troubles and hassles way on out to sea.......See you in the Ocean...

State of mind is what I'm in when that Southeast Lighthouse shines and that autumn wind is blowin' through my hair. I love that cool fresh air that... Aire of confidence everywhere in Providence you know it lifts me up everytime that I'm there.

You know it's only fair that I like quahogs and coffee-milk ah yes, over a big apple, baked beans and all the rest. Like the Independent Man on top of the dome, the Rennaissance City is the only home for me... the only home for me!

Forty-nine other states come this millennium, and the 13th won't be like any of them I'm gonna stick by the Rhode Island Red...until the end so...

I will fly to you and no time I'll waste. I cant wait to see you smillin' face. And Rhode Island will be the place. Yes, Rhode Island will be the place. Now Rhode Island's gonna be the place... Yes, Rhode Island will be the place!
