An archetype really can't be too fresh or it stops being an archetype. Part of the appeal is the universality, and familiarity. I think almost anyone can enjoy Barbara Allan.

Let's look at Greensleeves-

Alas my love you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously;
And I have loved you oh so long
Delighting in your company.

Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves my heart of gold
Greensleeves was my heart of joy
And who but my Lady Greensleeves.

I have been ready at your hand
To grant whatever thou would'st crave;
I have waged both life and land
Your love and goodwill for to have.

Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
Greensleeves was my heart of joy
And who but my Lady Greensleeves.

Thy petticoat of sendle white
With gold embroidered gorgeously;
Thy petticoat of silk and white
And these I bought thee gladly.

Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves my heart of gold
Greensleeves was my heart of joy
And who but my Lady Greensleeves.

A guy is bitched our because he bought his gal a bunch of trinkets and she doesn't love him anymore. WELL that's a pretty OLD story. But I like it anyway.
