Debbie Harry acted in a movie called Union City Blues and wrote the song during the location shooting there.

Yay! Another Annapolitan

The polka fest was aweeeeesome

I've had a hard time explaining to my non-FMU listening friends (that's basically all of them) that a polka show is a great way to launch a weekend.
  6:11pm cat:

this is the real halloween song
  6:11pm Jocelyn:

Phillippe, me too. They all need to get with it.

@Jocelyn Right?!

A polka show is a great way to start ANYTHING!

Nothing surprises my friends w/ my music tastes any more, well, since forever....
  6:13pm JakeGould:

Hello Stashu and others! Debbie Harry was born a poor orphan child in Miami, Florida but was adopted by a couple in Hawthorne, New Jersey. She was also a go-go dancer at a club in Union City, New Jersey.

Oh boy!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:13pm Michael 98145:

and everyone is amazed i haven't heard some top 20 song or other
  6:14pm cat:

wow she was really born an orphan?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:15pm Phillippe Bastille:

I have a hard time getting my mom to listen, even though she's mostly Polish. My dad's name was Stanley, and was Stashu when he was around the Polish relatives, so she gets confused by a female Stashu
  6:15pm JakeGould:

Who did Melissa call a “Little Wonky?”
  6:16pm JakeGould:

That is so racist.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:16pm Michael 98145:

and our champagne lady, Stashu
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:16pm northguineahills:

Moar Lawrence Welk references! North Dakota represent!
  6:16pm JakeGould:

I can’t believe it. How can polka do that to someone?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:17pm Carmichael:

My mother in law glued herself to the TV when Welk was on. I kinda dug Myron Floren.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:17pm Phillippe Bastille:

Tried to give our youngest son Stanley as a middle name but the fine folks in Maryland's records department thought that spelling it Stanely on his birth certificate was betterer
  6:18pm Last White Rhino:

Good evening to all.

were they Red Polka Dot socks?

VAN LINGLE MUNGO!!!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:20pm Krys O.:

Land sakes, the static on 91.1 is reminding me of my parents' old scratchy polka 78s.
  6:20pm JakeGould:

I like my Polish women like I like my music: 33 x 45 x 78. Oh boy!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:21pm Passaic River Blues:

Mickey Rourke, obviously.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:21pm Michael 98145:

maybe the station is still having power trouble
  6:21pm Jocelyn:

That sucks! They made an error on mine too. They kept changing my mom's spelling of my name.
  6:22pm JakeGould:

@Michael98145: That and self-esteem and basic human agency issues. But what do I know?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:22pm Michael 98145:

i had the Starbucks agent write Mikel on my cup once
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:23pm Phillippe Bastille:

@Jocelyn My mom's birth certificate said Baby Girl.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm Krys O.:

When people see Krys, they think Krystal Carrington. Nuh uh. It's Krystyna!
  6:24pm JakeGould:

@PhillippeBastille: Well, your family seems to have the birth certificate screwup magic touch!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm Phillippe Bastille:

There ya go...
  6:24pm Jocelyn:

They kept writing it as Joseline or adding an S.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm Carmichael:

My kids' middle names are IRISH Irish. The Registrar didn't even come close the first time.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:24pm Michael 98145:

Krystyna is a very nice name
  6:25pm Jocelyn:

But that's what she gets for getting my name from an Alfred Hitchcock tv episode.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:25pm Ken From Hyde Park:

When Lawrence Welk turned 18, he left the farm for California and never returned. He did not like farming.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:25pm Phillippe Bastille:

@Jake I know, right? At least it skipped my generation...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:26pm Michael 98145:

this is probably one of the most favorited tracks on the station !
  6:27pm JakeGould:

@Phillipe: And how!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:27pm Richard S:

OH YEAH!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:27pm Phillippe Bastille:

My wife's name is Cathy, and she went to a conference where they were making up name badges, The person asked her for her name and she said "Cathy, with a C," and got a name badge that said Kathy Withasee

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:28pm Phillippe Bastille:

@Jake lol!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:28pm Passaic River Blues:

When I finally join the revolution and go underground, my nom de guerre is going to be "Kathy Withasee".
  6:28pm JakeGould:

@Philliappe: HAHAHAHAAHAHHA!!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:29pm Krys O.:

Happy Tony reminds me of listening to Polish-language radio on WLIB in the late 60s. The name of the music show was the Two Edwards, Dwa Edwardze!
  6:29pm JakeGould:

That is right up there with Allison Wonderland and Shirley Yourkeating.
  6:29pm DC:

A fine friday to all, what joyful good sounds these are!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:29pm Phillippe Bastille:

Yeah, I got some crap for being a faux Frenchman with a misspelled name
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:31pm Michael 98145:

this'll get your fitbit tapping
  6:31pm JakeGould:

Whatever! Whoopie Shoopie! Do whatever you want!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:32pm Phillippe Bastille:

@Jocelyn Is that a true story?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:33pm Phillippe Bastille:

The Alfred Hitchcock thing?
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:34pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Is Wendy still there? Some green cheese she may enjoy: assets.cakebatterandbowl.com...
  6:35pm Jocelyn:

Yes! It's true
  6:35pm Stanky:

keep on polka!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:36pm Phillippe Bastille:

Well, you'll always be Joseline to me...
  6:36pm P-90:

Walt Solek RULES
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:37pm Carmichael:

@Stanky: You should get a poster of the Keep On Truckin' guy with an accordion!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:37pm northguineahills:

The original folk song of Green Grass was where the term gringo came from. Mexicans would hear Americanos singing the song, and thought they were saying gringo, and started to refer to them as such....
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:38pm Carmichael:

Stashu, have you ever played any Schmenge Brothers?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:39pm JohnEBGood:

You go girl! Are you Polish or Poilish American?
  6:39pm Jocelyn:

She heard the name on an episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents and said ah I'm naming my future child that!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:40pm Michael 98145:

it's dj integrity
  6:40pm JakeGould:

Everything sucks and is terrible and why even bother and who are you and why am I here hey where am I going and then what happens to my things?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:41pm Phillippe Bastille:

Looked it up: Portrait of Jocelyn
Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode (season 1, episode 28)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:41pm Krys O.:

An organ in lieu of an accordion?
  6:42pm P-90:

@Carmichael: DJ Stashu has never played the Schmenges, has never mentioned the Schmenges, does not respond to comments about The Schmenges. I think it might be because they are not “pure” enough...
  6:42pm JakeGould:

@Krys: That’s what she said.
  6:45pm Johnzon:

I say "don't kill shane"... cause I have a good friend named Shane
  6:45pm P-90:

Wayne Newton was like 15 when he made that record, everyone thought it was a lady singing the first time they heard it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:45pm Carmichael:

@P-90, it was kind of a joke question, but kinda not. I enjoy parodies of all kinds, since they're based in a tribute of sorts.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:45pm Richard S:

Whatever happened to Molly Ringwald anyway?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:47pm Michael 98145:

we have the technology : en.wikipedia.org...
scary
  6:47pm Stanky:

put some stank on it
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:48pm Michael 98145:

" Ringwald currently has a recurring role as Mary Andrews on The CW television series Riverdale. "
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:48pm Carmichael:

Molly Ringwald is from my home town of Sacramento.
  6:49pm Johnzon:

I was away from my phone for 30 seconds while you were reading comments so Ill just pretend you read my comment even though there would have been no reason to and that can be my excuse to be happy for now
  6:49pm George:

Wayne Newton was a regular performer on the Wallace and Ladmo show in Phoenix in the early 60s
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:49pm diciassette:

Ahoy! Molly Ringwald was a surprise guest on TAL and she watched The Breakfast Club with her daughter and it was adorable. Aye, she's a Sacratomato!
  6:50pm P-90:

@Carmichael: sure, but I have found Stashu’s determined avoidance of acknowledging anything Schmenge-related to be notable. I can’t resist a mystery I guess...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:50pm diciassette:

I also have heard that she's been doing musicals lately.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:51pm Richard S:

The Shmenges were based on an Edmonton polka host.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:51pm Michael 98145:

this show is like the Funhouse at the Fair
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:51pm Richard S:

Good for Ms. Ringwald!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:52pm Phillippe Bastille:

My old room mate called her Molly Ringworm. One of those things I wish I could unhear but can't
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:52pm Michael 98145:

CAPSLOCK polka!
Avatar ♥ 6:53pm slugluv1313:

@ Krys O.: wow! i had no idea that WLIB had Polish programming!
we listened to "Happy Bernie's Polka Party" on WCTC (FM, i think!), based in New Brunswick, NJ
on Sundays afternoons -- a good two if not three or four hours of PURE POLKA MUSIC!
it came right after "The Hungarian Radio Hour" . . . and yup, even as a kid, i noticed how even the "happy" Hungarian songs were sooooo DEPRESSING, hah!
Avatar ♥ 6:55pm slugluv1313:

TOTALLY reminding me to dig out my Mom's Stan Wolowic and The Polka Chips records!
(oh yes there are more records, but The Polka Chips' are the ones that stick in my mind!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:55pm Phillippe Bastille:

That's MISTER Peanut Butter
  6:56pm JakeGould:

@RichardS: Molly Ringwald is fine and actually has a an interesting take on her work with John Hughes. www.newyorker.com...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:56pm Carmichael:

Molly Ringwald's dad was a Dixieland Jazz legend. He had a great band that played all the pizza places regularly. There were probably 8 banjo players in that band.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:56pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Besides their two (!) polka shows, WVKR at Vassar College up here has a Polish language show early Saturday mornings. At least I think they still air it.
  6:57pm moonsafari:

Just wanted to say hello from Dublin! Brilliant polka tonight!
