Just Because Polka

[MoJoPiano]

Has to be one of my all-time favorites on the accordion.  And no one could play it any better than Miss Fran! Mo Jo

[AccordionLadyMi]

@MoJoPiano Thank you Mike. It is a nice surprise to hear from you again. Thanks for the visit and comment. Hope you're having a good week. Fran

[MoJoPiano]

@AccordionLadyMi When time allows, I've got to get back to your channel and see what all is new. I can't remember if I told you or not, but I did finally add a couple of gospel piano vidoes to my channel. Check them out when you get time. Have a wonderful week Fran! Mike

Great playing, one of my favorite polka songs! In my area we used to listen to "Jolly Joe Timmer". This song was played more often than any other. Your playing is great, keep up the good work!

[AccordionLadyMi]

@450984 Thank you for your visit and comment. Sorry I did not see your comment until today or I would have answered sooner...This was a favorite polka of mine when I was a child...My dad played it. Have a good week. Fran

[19gizzy84]

my mom passed away on 12/17/2010. we used to watch big joe's polka show and this was one of her favorites, when anyone would play it. it means a lot to see it. thanks.

[AccordionLadyMi]

@19gizzy84 Hello, I thank you for your visit and kind comments. I am sorry about your loss. My mom loved accordion music. My dad played for us for many years when I was growing up and after he died, I began to play accordion again. This song must have been popular many years ago because as children, my cousins and I heard our dad and their mom play this simultaneously on piano and accordion and that is when we learned the words and music. Best Wishes, Fran

[AccordionLadyMi]

@musikus48 Haben Sie nicht diese Polka in Deutschland? War sehr beliebt in den USA vor vielen Jahren... Fran

[musikus48]

@AccordionLadyMi Fran, es ist möglich, dass ich diese Polka schon mal gehört habe, ich denke aber nur von amerikanischen Bands oder Militärkapellen. Bei uns ist diese Polka weniger bekannt.

Liebe Sonntagsgrüße an Dich

Mike, It's a favorite of mine also. My dad played this and so this one is second nature to me. I'd like to play it a bit fancier, but I just play it like I remember it from long ago.  Thanks for the visit and for your nice remarks. I appreciate the support. Fran

[AccordionLadyMi]

Thank you Nozie. I am glad you like polkas. I have another one to add soon. Fran

[AccordionManiac]

Nice...is it an Italian accordion?

[AccordionLadyMi]

Yes, it is a vintage Silvio Soprani. The tones are not ideal, but the size and weight is just right for me. Have a great weekend. Fran

[AccordionLadyMi]

Dear Lorna, Thank you for the nice comment and for looking at my video. I played in an accordion group for 6 years and even if you make a mistake, no one hears it. That's when I learned to either play quietly or learn the melody.  Have a great day. Fran

[accordiona]

What a wonderful tune - and you play with such ease and precision! An inspiration! *****

[AccordionLadyMi]

LOL! You are a man after my own heart! Thanks for the smile. Your friend Fran

[myaccordionhistory]

I agree with the words of this song, you are pretty, you are hot, and you play accordion marvelously.

[FromHolbergsTime]

Absolutely splendid playing, dear Fran! A gorgeous sound from the venerable Soprani, with a seraphic look of peace and harmony upon your quiet but joyful countenance. I love the melody and textures of this charming song, and you give it substantial life, drama and projection. The colors of the room in the background seem to extend the imagination to expansive thoughts of both music and life. You've really brought together several elements in this lovely, lovely performance.

5 stars *****!

[Zjwaamseliedjes]

you shure have your way playing the accordion Fran !

Nice sunday,

Ferd.

[ilovetrains63]

Another super job of playing again my friend!!!5***** I don't remember hearing this one before either. I really like it!!! :o)
