With all due respect, this guy is Slovenian born Canadian. Same as me. This is the most infectious feel good music in the world. Anyone who reads this and cares about polka can love it as it belongs to all of us. I went to a wedding in the last year and 500 people got off their butts and polkaed their asses off for 4 hours. I didn't see grandma dansing to gangsta rap or some young child waltzing, but they both knew how to get down with polka.
@wesbesart Polka style music originated in Czech republic and despite the name it has nothing to do with Poland, the rythm is better known in Germany, Czech republic, Slovakia and Ukraine
Oh I love this, to me this is the typical Austrian music you hear when you to the Alps in Europe even if you also can do it in Canada. Do you know I can dance all those local dances they do too in Austria to this bumpa-bumpa-music.. It´s so very funny! Thanks meehall for this great share!***********************
both wrong....Beer Barrel Polka, also known as Roll Out the Barrel, is a song which became popular worldwide during World War II. The music was originally composed by the Czech musician Jaromír Vejvoda in 1927
German maybe ... but the song is Czech ... and we have the best beer in the world:) who does not know Czech brands such as Pilsner Urquell and Budweiser which replicate in America. So just like nazev.tak never drank beer. Czechs they drink the most beer in the world.
@paboy2727 Being a GERMAN you should know about Hans-Dietrich Genscher's bet from late 80th that this song, in GERMAN called "Rosemunde" (or "Böhmische Polka"), is originaly GERMAN. Well, he lost because it's originaly Czech -- composed by Jaromír Vejvoda in 1927. Sorry.
@paboy2727 This is a IRISH BEER DRINKING SONG. NOT A GERMAN SONG. SORRY, Being IRISH I know. It was composed by St. Patrick. That's why we celebrate St. Patrick's day and drink lot's of beer in his honor.

That rhythm player looks like hes got under lengthed arms with that shirt. Too bad this looks like lip-synced shit. Walter plays Polkas all night...how boring.
Well my friend this is one song I love to dance with, How about a Dance with me, Be careful no stepping on my shoes, So many times I have enjoyed this music at many weddings, lots of fun when everyone is getting together and having a drink or two, Happiness is in the air my friend When I am in a room when this song is playing, Thank you for making my day and sending it my way, I sure needed to smile and I did, Thank you so very much, love from Joy ,Are you Smiling
Wow - what an exciting video. This polka band is terrific. I had to get up and dance the first time I watched it. I can't polka like I used to but it's fun to just get with the music. I love this old classic. This Canadian band is wonderful. Everyone is having so much fun - I'd love to have been there. Thank you Mike for posting this winner. - Paula
czech artist Josef Vejvoda and his Škoda Lásky. This song is well known since end of the WWII. Czechs Americans and Germans sang this beautiful polka.
A wonderful video featuring Canada's legendary Walter Ostanek and his band. No wonder he is the undisputed king of polka music. In other words, he's the Wayne Gretzky of polka. Thanks for posting this totally terrific video, PolkasNL. I enjoyed listening to it and seeing Walter and his band in action. Keep up the good work, my friend.
