OK, OK, no problem, it's lame, stupid, boring, dull, corny, moronic... whatever.
Haha! Would be even more weirder if Al does a tribute to Frankie Yankovic, turning his songs into rap/rock/R&B/alternative etc.

Do you mean songs in a polka medley that have become really big hits? I think that an 'All Star Polka' (the biggest songs from each polka) would be a good bonus if there was to be another GH or PR.

That's exactly what I was just about to post. An "Ultimate Polka," with the best of the polkas. It could be the original polkas segued together or a re-recording. What would go on it? It should last for about 10 minutes, and possibly a 5-minute edit.

And think of the possibilites! He could do a promotional dance megamix polka single for the clubs!

Do you mean the best parts or biggest hits? If the latter, my picks:

From Polkas on 45:

Hey Jude
Jumpin Jack Flash
Hey Joe
Smoke On THe Water

From Hooked On Polkas:

Sharp Dressed Man
Owner Of A Lonely Heart
The Reflex
Bang Your Head (Metal Health) (may not have been a big hit but my favorite part)

From Polka Party:

Sledgehammer
Shout
Freeway of Love
Papa Don't Preach

From The Hot Rocks Polka:

It's Only Rock & Roll
Let's Spend The Night Together
Sympathy For The Devil
Satisfaction

From Polka Your Eyes Out:

Love Shack
Losing My Religion
Cherry Pie
Ice Ice Baby

From Bohemian Polka:

Bohemian Rhapsody (since there's nothing else)

From The Alternative Polka:

Loser
Closer
All I Wanna Do
Bullet With Butterfly Wings
Basket Case

From Polka Power:

Wannabe
Walkin On The Sun
Tubthumping
Semi-Charmed Life

From Angry White Boy Polka:

Last Resort
Fell In Love With A Girl
Hate To Say I Told You So
Last Nite
The Real Slim Shady

I was actually just thinking the best bits, but most of those are included in your list. For "Bohemian Polka," just the closing "Nothing really matters..." part, which would end the Ultimate Polka.

Well, actually, since BR can famously be broken down into "acts", would you like the ballad, the opera, the metal, or the ending?

I'd pick the opera, myself
