ok this might sound kinda weird but does anybody know if there are any polkas out there ? I don't mean "Roll out the barrel " that's the only one that I've ever found My whole family is of Polish desent and I keep threatening to get my 75 year old mother to karaoke but she just laughs and tells me she can only sing polkas

I did a search on some major cdg brands and didn't come up with much.
I see beer barrel polka a lot, but that's about it. It would help to know the names of some of the polkas your looking for or maybe a couple artists.

You may have to buy more than one disc to get what you want because it doesn't appear to be a CDG with just polkas on it. If you search under song and artist for each song you are looking for you may come up with more.

Here's a hint;  Also include Waltz, and Cha Cha compositions in a search, check out some famous polka titles, and search under CD-G, Lawrence Welk song's, etc., Also chartbusters songs, and party packs have a few, but perhaps not enough content in areas of your interest to warrant spending the money for the volume

Keyword Search  "Polka Music"  or  "Accordion Music" or "Polka+CD-G" or "and a vun, and a two + Karaoke" or "Sing along for Cordovox" etc.. When you find song's individually enter song titles into Karaoke searches.. Something will come up.


After you scroll past the first few pages of Kaplan's tacky Accordion jokes, (such as
the definition of "perfect pitch",  you know....hurling the thing into a dumpster and hearing it hit a banjo)  take the names of the song's that come up, and enter them with Karaoke.

<Sorry, I'm only kidding>   I'll try a few searches and give a few examples of what (might) come up. I don't think you'll find a compilation of just Polka music, although song's exist sporadically in Chartbuster party packs, Ethnic, Classic, and Standard's compilations..

They need to do some Weird Al Polka songs for Karaoke...those are a blast and would TOTALLY get the crowd going! If you don't know what I am talking about...go find and download "Polka Your Eyes Out"

I think that would be funny for those of us that grew up having to endure the abominable polka wedding and bar mitvah bands. I'd prefer to listen to John Valby rendition's however.

John Valby, now that's classic comedy.  And there's also a Red Peters Dirty Polka song out there too.  On Ameri-sing I believe.

Red Peters, hahaha. Have you ever heard his song "Closing Time". It starts out
so nice than towards the end he starts singing get the F*** out! at the end of the
night when there are only a few peolpe left and it's the right crowd I'll play it. Sooo funny.

Funny thing is, I never heard the end you are speaking of.  I suppose the bar that I went to that always played that song about 5 minutes prior to kicking everyone out at the end of the night (sort've like a bottom's up now , drink em up people) didn't want to get people too rowdy... .. Never heard the expletives, just the mellow part.

I live in Wisconsin where the polka is the official state dance (no, I am NOT making that up) and I have a polka karaoke disc!

It's called karaoke the casuals way produced by casual time records and features the following tracks both with and without vocals:

1.Let's have a party/E I E I E I O
2.Just because
3.In Heaven There Is No Beer
4.Who stole the Keishka
5.Too Fat Polka
6.Roll Out the Barrel
7.Blue Skirt Waltz
8.Pennsylvania Polka
9.The Chicken Dance
10.Grab Your Balls We're Going Bowling

I did a search to find where you could buy this thing (I got mine on ebay) and found the following info on a guy you contact to possibly buy one of these.  His name is Ed Klimczak and he's a member of the band that produced the CD and provides this email addy for inquiries.

E-mail: edklimczak@netscape.net

I guess my advice would be to drop Ed a line and if that doesn't pan out, keep your eyes peeled on ebay!
