McGrath,

If I say Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi! will it mean anything to you? (sorry, not relevant at all, but couldn't resist)

Think I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen compared with one of the really authentic Irish songs. I would call it a "manufactured" song, e.g. The Spice Girls are a "manufactured" band, and so were The Monkees - manufactured by someone who saw a niche in the market and created a band and songs to fit it for the purpose of making money rather than for the purpose of making music for music's sake.
