Discord and Rhyme: An Album Podcast

Weird Al's Hooked on Polkas (1985), Tracks 1-5


Listen Later

Weird Al's second polka medley was his first to consist entirely of contemporary chart hits, a formula he would (mostly) follow for the rest of his career. This week, we discuss a largely forgotten duet between Michael Jackson and Mick Jagger, discover the missing link between ZZ Top and the Moody Blues (like we do), and ponder how the owner of a parcel of land in Montana compares to the owner of a pie.

The Jacksons and Mick Jagger - State of Shock
ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man
Tina Turner - What's Love Got to Do with It
Daryl Hall and John Oates - Method of Modern Love
Yes - Owner of a Lonely Heart

Cohosts: Rich Bunnell, John McFerrin, Amanda Rodgers
