The awful music for our national anthem is something
called `Anacreon(sp?) in Heaven'.  It's in the "Oak, Ash, and Thorn
Drink-along Song Book", but really isn't very interesting.
It was sort of a club anthem for a particular drinking
group.

Hardly anyone can sing the damn thing because it covers two octaves,
and has bletchy harmonic progressions.
