  • i love this video

    

  • FUCKING BUFFERING

  • to realize some of these kids lost one of there parents..makes it hard to keep holding up your tears inside, when ya hear them sing.

  • This commercial gets me every time.

  • For once state farm isn't selling anything☺

  • That's the point of this commercial, a lot of the children were children from parents they lost. I was made, born and a true New Yorker. This commercial by Spike Lee and Beyonce is one of a kind!

  • This gives me the chills everytime.

  • I wish i lived there. But for kids they sound beautiful!

  • seemed like this was longer running time on the original

  • This makes me cry every time I see it. 9/11 changed my life. I will never be the same. I was in Boston with a friend, we ran into two people he knew from high school. Two weeks later they were on one of the planes from Boston.

  • i'm from south texas but i've always wanted to live in new york or the city since i was little, this song for some reason almost brings tears to my eyes cause what new york had to go through

  • is this ps22? bc i just watched their version of this song and it sounded exactly the same! :)

  • the best commercial ever: THIS ONE!

  • OMG I like this song but when I went to school and my language Arts teacher showed this video I cried so hard I fell so bad for the people that lost there family or friend members.

  • This is ridiculesly good! Love it!

  • Wtf?! The commercial is nice but I doubt these kids were even born when 9/11 happen. But still it's still a nice commercial and it's good anniversary memorial

  • If u hate this then you dnt have a life I had family die my favorite song made me cry the death a jamie wilson only, 20 years old

  • /watch?v=vFUc1MoY-zI thanks brothers

  • long live the world trade

  • oh my.. who cut onion!!! my hero!! world hero!

  • I teared up whenever I saw this

    NO SHAME, BRO

  • This is a great comercial I love it! great job! :)

  • An insurance company making money from tragedy...DUH!?! That's how ALL insurance companies generate revenue. When's the last time these guys used rainbows, puppies and kitties to make money? Give me a break!!!

  • 8 people help plan the attack

  • The most distasteful commercial I have ever seen. This is a minute long fluff piece for an insurance company that wants to make a profit.

    We now know that State Farm will try and capitalize off anything, no matter how tragic and emotional.

  • @wright2anthony It's not meant to make a profit. I think they sincerely wanted to just show their support. They obviously put their name at the end of it because it was made by them, which any company would do. It's common sense. It's not distasteful, it's actually the most respectful commercial I've seen in a long time.

  • @pinkzebra161 so true man so true...

  • wow!!i cant even write a comment to describe what i felt the first time i saw this add! long live america!

  • oh my goddd. <3.

  • 6 people have no heart and don't care about all the people who lost their lives

    in 9-11 :'(

  • those kids werent even alive when it happened

  • What's the name of the firefighter at 0:30 on the right? He's HOT!

  • Thank you for making this commercial... You mind and heart are in the right place. I will never forget the day and now will always remember this ad... You are more than a good neighbor.

    stay adventurous, Craig

  • State Farm is starting to block this commercial from youtube because of copyright laws WTF State Farm i though this was for all the people that died in new york no ITS about money!!!!!

  • @rickker20 I think it's great. Possibly made to improve ratings and a marketing technique...

  • Amazing. Love it.

    

  • This is an amazing commerical and those who are saying that statefarm is doing wrong by making this comerical is just stupid they made it to show thanks to thos who put their lives at risk to save many. They had to put their name on the commercial becuase they sponsered it nothing more nothing less.

    THIS IS AMAZING! MADE ME TEAR UP. Much love from Cali

    God bless those in the NYFD, NYPD AND ALL OTHER RESPONDERS THAT DAY!

  • what an incredible moving commercial. THANK YOU TO THE NEW YORK POLICE , FIREMEN AND THOSE NEW YORK CITIZENS WHO GAVE AND NEVER ASKED BACK. AND TO THE SURVIVORS AND THEIR FAMILIES. MY HEART HURTS FOR YOU AND I WILL NEVER FORGET. TO YOUR FAMILY MEMEBERS THAT WERE LOST ,AGAPE

  • Beautiful...

    

  • Only a communist Islamo-facist neo-nazi would dislike this video.

    this is what the tittle of the video he just please search on youtube

    (Filipino Amazing human beatbox)

    Thanks for your reading and watched

    Thanks !!!!!!!!

  • It's a shame that in the end it's hidden agenda was for a multi billion dollar company to create a sense of familiarity and emotional feelings that are registered unconsciously, don't be fooled just because they don't bluntly tell you to buy their product, remember that these companies have brilliantly calculated when and how to place Ad's and every chance they get will be taken. You have to see how other insurance companies will see this video, and to them it's Grade A; Viral marketing.

  • @Payam0 - You should learn to appreciate something that was well done. You know it costs a lot of money to produce something like this. So individuals like you and I cannot do it. It takes a company with resources. That being said, kudos for an American company willing to produce something of great quality and capture the feeling of excitment for what New York has to offer. You can see the emotions from the firefighters to see the music tribute from the kids.

  • That's such a nice commercial! Can't be better than that!

  • I work for State Farm, props to our marketing crew!

  • Cbfd234 don't worry most of us are brainwashed ;-)

  • love this ,,but if you were to open your door.etc and see kids singing i would be kinda creeped out .....

  • great commercial :)

  • I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this commercial! God Bless America and all our heros!

  • Let's never stop saluting the fallen heroes. Their spirit will always live on in the hustle and bustle that is New York City. This is truly what dreams are made of. RIP victims of 9/11. Much Love.

  • i never seen such a beauty *cries*

  • I think we just need to be proud of being an American! thumbs up if this made you feel closer to the US. :)

  • Tears Oh yes.....to the firefighters and police who passed away to save others....and others like port authority and all........NEVER FORGOTTEN!

  • Very nice commercial indeed, but regardless, Canada > USA.

  • Loved this..brought tears to my eyes.

  • Nice Video

  • I NEVER watch ads...except the Super Bowl ones, but, yesterday, I heard the singing and looked up. This is a fantastic ad...I kept waiting to see who put it out there, and just seeing "State Farm"...perfect!!

  • Thank you, that was beautiful.

  • who are you 5 people...?

  • Wow. Wonder how those fireman felt?

  • wow! the best ever....love it. ******tears

  • Love it!!!!

  • This was so amazing and adorable :)

  • The cheesiest commercial I've ever seen

  • what a lovely way...

  • pround to be an american

  • aww this is soo cute!!! <3

  • Amazing.<3

  • Beautiful!

  • So lovely! 4 people have no soul....

  • I am proud to be a State Farm customer.

  • This is so beautiful, I started to cry while watching it ;w;

  • Love and prayers out to the first responders and their families. They are not appreciated enough. People don't realize how much fire fighters do for our country.

  • Love this, first say it when I was watching the 9/11 specials, this brought tears to my eyes..not from NY but I love it!

  • there needs to be a "will make you cry" warning on vids like this!

    love it!!!

  • @NiceGalAlly Lol! I agree *tears

  • I recall all the commercials that were put up right during/after 911. Subway just had a black commercial that had the logo and words on it, also a phone number to call to donate. McDonalds did the same with AMC. It was crazy watching channels like TVLand, Comedy C, etc and every station was broadcasting some news source. I hope this horror never happens again. May the people who caused this never quench their thirst in hell.

  • I agree...This was the ABSOLUTE BEST... Shared w/my 14 y/old who LOVES NY & so do I... We live in the south, but have a NY State of Mind! Peace & Blessings to all the families of the NY WTC & DC Pentagon, and Flight 93... Peace & Blessings to FDNY, NYPD, all US Military, and 1st Responders...

  • This video was directed by Spike Lee and my daughter had the wonderful opportunity to participate in this commercial!!

  • As a former nyc teacher and 60 yrs. living in this great city, i have never felt so proud of the city and our children...lets hear it for ny...what a great song...

  • Comment removed

  • The commercial was directed by Spike Lee, my friend is one of the firemen (they are all real NYFD guys in the commercial).

  • This is just beautiful. God Bless America and the heroes and people of 9/11.

  • Just appeared on my tv, went immediately to youtube to search for it this is the best commercial everrrrrrr

  • God Bless Jay-Z and God Bless America.

    Fuck Bush and fuck the New World Order.

  • This was filmed just as beautifully as the intentions behind it are.

  • What is the name of the song the kids are singing and what is it from?

  • @azindn Empire State of Mind by Jay-Z

  • I am a NY native from King's county (Brooklyn) and this commercial touched me,it is a sad tragedy that for ever will change the way i live.God bless AMERICA and our kids!

  • nobody says 'God bless the innocent victims of the wars'

  • I Love this....shed tears watching this

  • the three people who disliked this video got mugged in the bronx

  • They aren't advertising their company. This is a tribute commercial from the company itself, so of course they are gonna put "State Farm" at the end of the commercial. Verizon, along with others made tribute commercials & NEVER once talked about any of their products, plans or what they sell -- that would be advertising. & As a NEW YORKER, I loved it. Finally a video tribute for 9/11 without the falling buildings & the smoke. Spike Lee did a great job on this commercial.

  • I agree, actually I was searching the whole time to see who put the ad together. At the very end, very humbly it says State Farm. For once they are not trying to sell anything, just Americans on being American.

  • this is the cutest thing ever and makes me so damn proud to be american !!

  • ...tears...

  • WOW!

  • this gives me chills.

  • this gives me chills.

  • Thumbs up if you saw this on TV and immediately searched for it because it gave you chills

  • Thumbs up if you saw this on TV and immediately Youtubed it because it gave you chills

  • Thumbs up if you saw this on TV and immediately Youtubed it because it gave you chills

  • Can't stop watching this. I just run it over and over and keep tearing up at different parts.

  • The 2 people who disliked this video are.... wait there are not words to describe their stupidity.

  • Not saying this isn't a good commercial, but it should be more about remembering that tragic day and not advertising a freaking company. Should be advertising about how people in New York felt on that day.

  • Why would StateFarm use a tragedy in U.S. history to advertise their company, this should be about donating to the firemen who risked their lives and died while trying to save innocent strangers that are Americans.
