Paul Anka's new record, Rock Swings, features a couple of covers of songs Al has either parodied or polka'd: "Eye of the Tiger," "Black Hole Sun," and "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

Has Al had any further interactions with Hanson after directing their "River" video and having them as musical guests on TWAS back in 1997?

Well, there was a little known song of theirs called "Mmmbop" used in "Polka Power!"

Hey, I forgot about that! Thanks, Elvis!

Dave, I knew that there was part of MMMBop used in Polka Power, but much to my dismay, I realized that Al sang it incorrectly! I wonder if Hanson is aware of this...

Eh, it was close enough. Who could understand that song, anyway? I'm sure they didn't have a problem with it.
