"Katmandu" is a song written and recorded by American rock artist Bob Seger.

Glenn [Frey] and Don [Henley] told me that the Beautiful Loser album was the first little step in the right direction for me.

Beautiful Loser was a transitional album, and in the song "Katmandu" I still had some of that defeatist mentality and you can hear it in there.

[4]Cash Box called it "fine, tight, rock and roll," saying the song "is punctuated with classic Chuck Berry-style guitar, down-home rockin' piano and fine vocal stylizing by Bob.

"[5] Classic Rock History critic Janey Roberts rated it as Seger's 9th best song.
