Music with large vocal ranges.

[Eine Alpensinfonie]

Great background........courtesy Wiki....

"According to former player Tommy Smith, lead vocalist Gerry Marsden presented Liverpool manager Bill Shankly with a recording of his forthcoming cover single during a pre-season coach trip in the summer of 1963. "Shanks was in awe of what he heard. ... Football writers from the local newspapers were travelling with our party and, thirsty for a story of any kind between games, filed copy back to their editors to the effect that we had adopted Gerry Marsden's forthcoming single as the club song." The squad was subsequently invited to perform the track with the band on The Ed Sullivan Show with Marsden stating, "Bill came up to me. He said, 'Gerry my son, I have given you a football team and you have given us a song'."

When I was teaching, I always reminded reluctant singers about football match singing, where people really do extend their vocal ranges, and stay basically in tune (usually in B major).

...and projecting their voices more than in any other scenario!

Those with evangelical experience might recall singing 'I am the bread of life' which has a range of a 12th, beginning in the lowest part of this range and with the highest note in the last line of the verse. In informal contexts where someone started it off unaccompanied at a pitch that seemed right, this could easily lead to disaster by the end.
