I have a theory that national anthems are bad by design. If its a good song, there’s no patriotism in liking it. Its a bop! Of course you like it!

But a bad song, a bad song is ripe with opportunities to flex your love of country. Its a contest! Look at how brainwashed I am! Look at how much I’m moved by the bad song!

That’s why you’ll never see any national anthem on anyone’s ipod (Hendrix excluded). It sucks by design
