Subject: RE: When Does it Get to Be Folk?
Ian C, on 19 Feb 14, I posted the WW1 songs from 1917 that made the U. S. Billboard and were popular for several weeks.
They number 11. Five of the top 10 Billboard listing are war or patriot oriented, and 9 of the top 20.

This seems, to me, to be a goodly proportion.
