Ten years ago this week, “Weird Al” Yankovic released Mandatory Fun, the first comedy album in history to debut at #1 on the Billboard albums chart. Today, in celebration of that unprecedented feat, Al is releasing his new single and video “Polkamania!,” a medley of some of the biggest and most memorable songs of the last decade.

In keeping with Al’s many previous polka medleys, “Polkamania!” lampoons the biggest hits by today’s most iconic artists. Just a few of the the songs and artists included in the medley are Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers,” Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy,” ” Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road,” Adele’s “Hello,” and Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off.” For “Polkamania!,” Al also enlisted a dozen of his favorite animators and filmmakers including past collaborators such as Jarrett Heather (“Word Crimes”), Bill Plympton (“Don’t Download This Song,” “TMZ”), Liam Lynch (“Craigslist,” “First World Problems”), Ghostbot (“Party in the CIA”), and Augenblick Studios (“Another Tattoo,” “Your Horoscope for Today,” and the Amish sequence in WEIRD: The Al Yankovic Story). Notable new collaborators include British animator Cyriak and A24’s Hazbin Hotel creator Vivienne Medrano.
