stay away (from 1967!) = greensleeves!
"Pastime with Good Company" is the most played of the Henry VIII's pieces. Runner-up is "Green Growth the Holly." If you've been told he composed Greensleeves, you've been told incorrectly. "Greensleeves" doesn't appear until forty years after Henry's death, and is stylistically very different.
The link between Henry VIII and "Greensleeves" is a popular misconception. While the song was composed during Henry VIII's reign, there is no concrete evidence that he wrote it. The association with Henry VIII likely stems from a romantic legend that he composed the song for Anne Boleyn, although there is no historical basis for this claim.
