You know a song has become a real folk song when its tune is used incessantly on TV ads and on the football terraces.

I may have been the singer at the 50th birthday if it was last weekend. I'm a barn dance/ceilidh caller and as a break from the dances I often throw in the odd song. As I call with various bands and most of the dances are for general public (The Real Folk) I need a repertoire of well-known material that Joe Public can recognise and join in with. I can't really see them appreciating Tam Lin.

BTW TWR is a brisk waltz and they can also dance to it.
