Nitpick: Wrong mode?

This strikes me as a Dmixolydian tune with the Fnatural accidental the first time around - its sounds just fine without the Fnat. Just a bit funkier with it.

The A-part is pretty much the same, but the B-parts differ significantly...

Why the Fn

The Fn is ok if you want to do a not-so-subtle variation. But The Tune is played around here (Co Clare) without the Fn. To use the Fn would come across as a big ego thing. Why even offer the tune that way?
