Weird Al's Polka Party! (1986), Tracks 7-12

On this episode, Weird Al has finally made a monkey out of us. Our latest batch of reconstructed mid-'80s pop hits includes lots of drum machines, two covers of '60s classics (to varying degrees of success), a cameo from Danny Aiello's brief and inexplicable recording career, and an ode to Mozart for people who hate every ape they see, from chimpan-A to chimpanzee.Songs:The Rolling Stones - Harlem ShuffleBananarama - VenusJanet Jackson - NastyFalco - Rock Me AmadeusTears for Fears - ShoutMadonna - Papa Don't PreachCo-hosts: Rich Bunnell, John McFerrin, Libby CudmoreLinks:"Harlem Shuffle" music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAkMTu6q2pY"Dr. Zaius" (from The Simpsons): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlmzUEQxOvADanny Aiello's "Papa Wants the Best for You": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xg11hwVs-MWeird Al "interviews" Madonna in 1985: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twunYSrARk0Get early access to bonus episodes on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/discordpodDiscord & Rhyme merch: http://tee.pub/lic/discordpod Other clips:Bob & Earl - Harlem Shuffle"Weird Al" Yankovic - (This Song's Just) Six Words Long"Weird Al" Yankovic - I Think I'm a Clone Now"Weird Al" Yankovic - AlimonyBananarama - Aie a MwanaShocking Blue - VenusDead or Alive - You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You UpKylie Minogue - I Should Be So LuckyMorris Minor & the Majors - This Is the ChorusMinistry - Everyday Is HalloweenBananarama - Cruel SummerBananarama - Robert De Niro's Waiting ...Genesis - Land of ConfusionJanet Jackson - Fast GirlsFalco - Der KommissarFalco - It's All Over Now, Baby BlueTears for Fears - Mad WorldTears for Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the WorldXTC - This World OverTears for Fears - The Tipping PointMadonna - EverybodyDanny Aiello - Papa Wants the Best for YouKelly Osbourne - Papa Don't Preach"Weird Al" Yankovic - Like a Surgeon
