wow. This and Weird Al are completely different. But, it was also two very different times. That and WE recognize Al's music. But he wrote this himself.
It is too bad the world moves so fast as to forget the good times us" old folks: had at dances like this. We need more--just once in a while--in big dance halls. You young folk, you haven't really learned what good, clean wholesome fun, dancong and drinkling can be---, but not too much- This is what music-is all about. PGL Canada
@paullacny -- You are so right. I've gotten tired of rock over the past few years, especially with the angst and the self-absorbtion and shallowness of the lyrics. My grandmother's generation had it right--they worked hard, they were dirt-poor, but they were happy. And they loved polkas. I've returned to my roots. And in what other style of music do you have so many happy people? Happy Louie, Happy Jack, Jolly Joe Timmer...
remember this stuff every sunday @noon on tv5! gr8 stuff--lotz of memories--my mom sang and danced all AM with radio on--then this on tv in PM. memories o fun, simpler life for all.
Yep,channel 5 out of Cleveland,every Sunday.My Aunt Lil just loved polka .Lithuanian get-togethers at least for us, brought out my cousin's accordian and the Polka music sheets.
I remember when I was growing up,we'd come home from church,mom turned on polka varieties,& finished making Sunday dinner. She even tried to teach me polka dancing,since she was Slovak. Boy,do I miss those days...
This polka is an old time favorite but newer arrangment with Joe Miskulin playing the 2nd accordian and his fill-in is awesome. I listen to this a lot. This guy is just great and a real compliment to the Yankovic band.
Polka Varieties. I had an aunt who was dying of cancer and we made weekly trips to see her in Cleveland. Every Sunday morning: Polka Varities on Channel 5. Attended my share of Polish weddings. No DJs with CDs. Live Polka music. Those were the days!
hahah my dad would play polkas on the radio everys unday after mass this is one of the ones I remember. funny I hated it all then ,25 years later and I love it!!!!

Weird Al Yankovic (no relation) utilized a snippet of this polka in his latest polka medley before he sings "Tik Tok" by Ke-Dollar Sign-ha.
