Great Songs About Michigan
Before I share with you the best song about Michigan I wanted to share some that I feel would have been a better choice.
These songs could have lyrics that mention Michigan or are entirely about the state.

With its catchy beat and lyrics mentioning Michigan I was surprised that this wasn't picked as the best song about Michigan.

Everyone knows the song Detroit Rock City.

Music Experts Say This Is The Best Song Ever About Michigan
So if none of those songs above are the best song about Michigan then what is?
According to Hello Music Theory, the best song about Michigan is a song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers called "Especially In Michigan".
This is what Hello Music Theory said about the song:
"When one thinks of Red Hot Chili Peppers, California is usually the first place to come to mind. Based in the Golden State, the four-piece band has a discography that heavily features the state dozens of times, often directly by name. But with “Especially in Michigan,” Red Hot Chili Peppers pay testament to the birthplace of Anthony Kiedis. “Especially in Michigan” is an energetic embracing of the Great Lake State in every possible way. Focusing on Michigan, the lyrics invoke Huckleberry Finn, fishing, and the local Detroit Lions and Tigers sports teams. With an amazing guitar solo, exciting vocals, and touching lyrics, it’s a favorite of locals and tourists alike.
I love the RHCP and this song is good, I just don't agree it's the best song about Michigan.
