Am I allowed to say that I think O Canada is a really stupid song? It even makes Advance Australia Fair seem less stupid by comparison. Both The Star Spangled Banner and God Save the Sovereign of Appropriate Sex are decent poetry, from an era when they wrote decent anthems, even though they have not much more than a nodding relationship with their tunes.
