Re: NOW That's What I Call Polka!
Oh hey! I made that! Thanks for spreading the word! Seeing that we haven't gotten a proper ALTV polka video in awhile I wanted to fill the void-but once I had posted it though I noticed someone else had done one a few hours earlier. Luckily I mixed my footage up a bit so that they are different enough!

Re: NOW That's What I Call Polka!
Here's a recording of the Too Fat Polka by Arthur Godfrey which the opening part of the polka is based on:

And here is a cover by Frankie Yankovic:

Now that I've heard these lyrics, I'll always think of them at the beginning of NOW That's What I Call Polka!

Frankie also recorded a version featuring Drew Carey:

It was on the same album that featured Al on "Who Stole the Kishka?", which I can't seem to find on YouTube.

Re: NOW That's What I Call Polka!
I loved the Polka.I was kinda hoping Al would include "Drive By" from Train.It seemed ripe for parody,but at least I'd hoped it'd make it into the polka.
Back off me,man-back off.

This song is so funny. I haven't heard very many of the songs in it but it's still really good. My favorite part is the way he sings Gagnam Style.

It would be amazing if Al fooled everyone and this song is today's surprise "Gotcha" release video.
Always and forever a Weird Al fan.

Re: NOW That's What I Call Polka!
This is the best polka ohmygosh
I had so many emotions the first time I heard this because with every new song I was like "I KNOW THIS ONE but will i know the next one"
I ended up knowing every single song in this polka.
And quite a few of them are among my favorite pop songs over the past few years so yay there too!!!!!
Ugh this polka is sogood this polka is the sex
