I'm not running anything, Jim. I'm trying to determine just what it is that constitutes a contemporary folk song for you and why it is different to what constitutes a contemporary folk song for me.

Why do you say MacColl's "Dirty Old Town" is written employing "folk techniques" but Sheran's "Nancy Mulligan" is not?
