I nominate the Swedish anthem "Du gamla du fria" (Thou old, thou free),
I think it is horrible, as well for the music as the text. (Imagine a
national anthem text that not even mention its country). I think the
Swedish national anthem would be Stenhammars "Sverige", which is powerful
and very thought trough, and a great peice of art, with a very significant
national mood...and I wanted to ask the other Sweds on the list what they
think.
