Remembering 9/11: Spike Lee And Empire State Of Mind

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks. State Farm teamed up with Spike Lee to create this spot. It features diverse locations in New York City while following a group of children en route to a firehouse (actually four different firehouses). It also has the children singing the hook to “Empire State Of Mind”. Stirring and powerful. Of all the 9/11 tribute commercials I’ve seen during a long day of football, this one is the best.
