Steve, you wrote:

You're probably right about this, but the point of this message is that it
reminded me that, some years ago, the Swedish saxophonist Arne Domnerus made
a jazz version of the Norwegian national anthem ("Ja, vi elsker ... "). This
was immediately banned in Norway, and as far as I know, still is.
