This priest, Fr. “Oaf For A Day” and these “liturgists” will suffer zero consequences for having used the “fight song” of the Philadelphia Eagles for the Alleluia melody.
Ironically, the Philly football fight line is better than many of the ditties used in parish churches today.
At a Northeast Philly parish, they swapped out a tune for the Alleluia and subbed in the @Eagles Fight Song. Hilarious. #GoBirds #FlyEaglesFly @CBSPhiladelphia pic.twitter.com/yZYvCoUXI7

But, remember! The Traditional Latin Mass must be suppressed.
Okay, okay… I know all about “parody Masses” of the great composers such as Josquin des Prez and his Missa di dadi or L’homme armé.
In my parish, for time, the refrain Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” was used. I didn’t sing.
Oh yeah that’s just hilarious.
NOT.
Why is reverence considered practically a crime but this kind of junk is clever & hilarious? These people excell at the banal.
I hope the recessional was On Eagles Wings.
Go Birds!
Rob in Maine: That’s horrible! So very wrong…another (spiritual) scourging for Jesus.
