The Grauniad asks: Does Britain have the world's worst national anthem?
Regular readers will know that this is a lietmotif of this blog - here, here and here.
It's a bit pathetic that three quarters of a million people can take to the streets in a benign display of positive nationalism and not actually have a National Anthem. God help us if Swing Low is adopted, though. It sounds just about tolerable when sung by a gospel choir. Chanted tunelessly by a crowd of varying musical ability it really is quite awful.
