Indeed, a national anthem should be rousing for the country... ALL of the people. Not glorification of one. If the same song was the NK national anthem with "Jong il" in place of "the queen" we would all find it hilarious.
For example, I actually think the Star Spangled Banner is an excellent national anthem. If it was actually still accurate for what America stands for, it would be even better. Hope, freedom, bravery... For normal people.
Unfortunately it doesn't really fit with the US as it exists today. Still a much better anthem, though.
