Polka Your Own Eyes Out

Sorry to boost an old thread from the dead, but I'm not yet allowed to post new topics in here- and this seemed like an appropriate place for this.

The other day, a friend of mine finally finished recording a polka medley of "Weird Al" songs, entitled "Polka #27". It's got one song from each album (or two mini-songs in the case of UHF), and I suppose it's pretty okay.

You can find it at The Marc and Jon Soundclick Page, under "Music"- it should be the first song you see.

Hope it doesn't burst too many ear drums.

First off, you rock for this.

Second, it says you need to register to download it...is there anyway you could put it on yousendit or something?

Wow! That was actually REALLY GOOD! I was very pleasantly surprised by that whole thing! Very nice work! Interesting choice of some of the songs ("Traffic Jam?"), but other than that, it was pretty much flawless. I like how you used "Fun Zone" and many "Ear Booker Polka" elements for your transitions. I also like how in several spots it just goes seamlessly from one song into another as if they're part of the same song.

I also really loved that you ended it with one of my favorite, and most underrated songs!

Again, GREAT JOB!!!!

That was really great! Just how did you throw together such a great instrumental like that?

That was awesome!

Haha, thanks so much for the feedback- it's quite an ego boost.

As for the instrumentals, Marc and I have been doing this sort of stuff for a while now, and I've just picked a few tricks up here and there.

Here's a Yousendit link, for those of you who don't want to deal with registering:

Thanks again!

(And coincidentally, feel free to listen to any of the other songs on that site- except for Chuck's House Remix and Voices Techno. No one really needs to listen to those, lol.)

Great job! Can I put that on "Weird Al" Tribute Dot Com?

Absolutely! It's pretty cool that a site like that actually exists- I'm gonna have a bit of fun going through and listening to the songs up there.

Great! I'll get it on there tomorrow morning.

Edit - Okay, you guys are now on the Tribute Songs page of "Weird Al" Tribute. You're between Jake Waters and Jared Claxon. I linked your Sound Click page, you can send me a different link if you have one. I also would like a picture, but if not that's okay.

The MP3 link is Polka #27
