Information
has gloss	eng: Utah, This is the Place is the state song of Utah. It was written in 1996 by Sam and Gary Francis for Utah's centennial celebrations. It replaced Utah, We Love Thee as the state song in 2003 after 4th grade students at Cook Elementary wanted a "More modern state song". They talked to their local representative, Dana Love (R-Syracuse) and she drafted up a bill that passed with the legislators on 2003-02-28, and was signed by then Utah Governor Michael O. Leavitt on 2003-03-15. The previous song, Utah, We Love Thee became the State Hymn.
