Instead it sounds like a joyous Nepali pop song, the sort of music you hear blaring out of taxis in Kathmandu. It’s the only anthem normally played on a Casio keyboard, and it is so happy it’s somewhat unsettling to learn it was the product of a Maoist revolution,” Alex Marshall writes for BBC.
Marshall is the author of Republic or Death! Travels in Search of National Anthems.
National anthems of Russia and Myanmar have been ranked first and second in the list respectively.
