Briar was a real band and they did record the song. Songs don't need to be "given" to anyone, if the writers put it out into the publishing circles, anyone can pick a song and record it. So, unless someone from Briar talks about it, we'll never know why they chose to record it. The video seems like a joke, so maybe it was just a funny single. It also doesn't seem to be on any of their albums available on iTunes.
