Please to note: the following written entirely with tongue in cheek.

Hmmm ... haven't got time at the moment to go through the entire thread. Just responding to Joely's first post, and loving the irony. NO-one (methinks) would argue that "Greensleeves" is considered a folksong. Ah yes,a fine old folksong written by that fine old folksong writer and man of the common people, Henry Tudor (aka Henry VIII).

Methinks Joely has delivered a subtle body blow to one aspect of the traditionalists' arguments.

Git back to the pizzaria...
