Just as long as they still play “I’ve got tears in my ears from crying on my back because you’ve gone away and left me”. (preferably with a twangy guitar and not that cello in the last frame.)
Maybe Limekiller doesn’t object to the genre as much as the patently religious nature of the song: “I’ve got the will, Lord, if You’ve got the toe,” is pretty brazen in a secular setting.
For those of you that don’t know the song (and want to)
Drop Kick Me Jesus Through
The Goalposts Of Life

Straight through the heart of them righteous uprights
Drop kick me Jesus through the goal posts of life.

Opus should get two or three points, depending on where Jesus is for the big kick.

How ‘bout “Granma Got Run Over by a Reindeer?” Would that still be too religious?
