[@davididiart5934]

Weird Al: AM I A JOKE YO YOU!?

[@Weirdish]

But, if you think about it, polka can still accomplish the creepy effect that Burton uses. Did you see Coraline? That tall creepy Russian dude was basically themed by this music.

[@ghoulannabanana]

*insert pennywise's demented polka dance*

[@Gregolomaniac]

this is like being at a demented carnival

[@Mateo-nz1xl]

Gregolomaniac you just gave me inspiration for horror story thanks hahah

[@johnnyguevin7888]

Gregolomaniac i agree with you it actually does

[@thatguyintherain3168]

This makes Cicero very happy

[@daniellore1917]

That or some bizarre polka.

[@magicemperor2420]

For some reason, I always want to do a demented polka whenever I hear this lovely cover. *jigs*

[@Fatmanonice]

Musically, this is my favorite track on this CD. It goes in a different style of the originals but it retains the original feel of the tunes all too well. I've come to really like Devotchka in the past couple of months mainly because of their dedication to more obscure instruments and how, overall, they have a sort of "trademark" sound to their music.

[@FranboiseSenpai]

I totally see this used as a Little Big Planet level music

[@juanchoalicante]

I love this music. I´m musician and i ever like discover diferents musics, alternatives, but ever beautifuls... PD: Forgive my english if i have wrote any word incorrectly

[@BethGoth15]

This reminds me of Count Olaf's band from the Lemony Snicket movie lol.

[@thatguyintherain3168]

@@thatguyintherain3168 oh, time. Oh, God, GOD, OH NO, TIME! NO!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO

[@ScreamxxNobuko]

I got this album for Valentines Day and when I heard this I started laughing, it scared my cat, but I actually REALLY like what they did with this song. (: It's to fun to dance to also. :DD

[@feydust]

Yes!!! I thought the exact same thing when I heard it first... especially the scene of the marvelous marrige!!!!!

[@bingotheraccoon]

Sounds like a hyper active wind-up toy on X and Cherry Coke and Pixie Stix. I LOVE IT!

[@ryngoodwin5534]

Wow I remember so vividly having this CD and blasting it on my little CD player as a a kid

[@0311Mushroom]

This actually sounds a lot like it was done by the original Oingo Boingo.

[@Phantomsbreath]

DeVotchKa are pretty damn fun, at that.

[@ryngoodwin5534]

I wish oingo boingo was on this fucking album

[@0311Mushroom]

@@ryngoodwin5534 notice, I said the "Original Oingo Boingo". As in the experimental band created by Richard Elfman. Not the later incarnation fronted by his brother Danny. The original was quite different, and much more like this recording.

[@redwingtrekie24]

I F***** LOVE DEVOTCHKA! THEIR THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED IN THE LAST FEW YEARS!!! THEIR COMPLETELY BRILLIANT AND I LIKE THIS "COVER"! I LIKE THE ENDING it sounds Dark with the Tuba comin' in!

[@Lulubellwilley]

woah. this is a cool song! I never expected Elfman music in polka to sound this awesome!

[@vioJulie]

waw..I just LOVE the violin part!!!!!!!

[@Anguisette]

happy polkaween!

[@Elchinodiabolero]

Anguisette hahaha😂

[@DemonOfBeauty21]

OH MY GOD THIS IS AMAZING! -gets up and dances around-

[@KingTimothyDanielLeyba777]

My friend Ryan Walker bought this album for me a few years ago. :)

[@JackMetJill]

This is an awesome cover. The only polka I've ever liked is wierd al's polka and I like hearing a polka version of disturbed as much as anyone else, but a polka version of the nightmare before christmas, who do I have to kill!

[@scarredxangel]

OMG! This is such a cool cover.

[@BlueGeen]

Devotchka rules! Met them in person. Wonderful folks.

[@mtb416]

First off, Devotchka is great. Guess that's what happens when real talent comes together! Saw the actual sets of Nightmare Before Christmas at a local museum exhibit, quite impressive, it was as though you were watching the movie. The miniature sets were very detailed. I think the exhibit is traveling all over the country if you're interested.

[@protonmonkey]

DeVotchKa + Nightmare Before Christmas= WIN.

[@Ar7wen]

Hey I kinda LIKE this one.....like a twisted kind of spooky version....like the way it speeds up towards the end....this would be cool for Halloween......like that, accordian I guess it is........the ending is nice......

[@CloudFangirl]

Oh my god Devotchka I LOVE YOU!!!!!

[@phoenix_star]

This is bloody brilliant!!!

[@77steve94]

Spectacular!

[@annaliseyoung2232]

I want Weird Al to do this!! He's amazing at polka!

[@GabrielleTollerson]

YAAAS

[@f.tomasi]

The best song on this album. XD

[@alexanderfuentes7765]

I get a polkaweenie listening to this!

[@PatrickPtak]

this music is SICK. It reverberates so deep inside me. It's like an ancient symphony playing to the Gods

[@thebluedragon07]

what makes them really awesome to me is that they come from my state.

[@YouSeamusMeChaseer3]

I like DeVotchka, and I like the Nightmare Before Christmas. I love this.

[@birdorama]

If you dig this song by Devotchka and How it Ends you should check out the soundtrack to Little Miss Sunshine (which they did) and Queen of the Surface Streets one of my favorite songs. Great band and super good guys and gal too!

[@CarmenNYY]

Wow, I was listening to the devotchka channel on jango and this came up...My two favorite things ever...

[@joseluissandoval7688]

It's that time of year again :)

[@benjisolis5574]

Does anyone else get a series of unfortunate vibes from this medley? The movie one, Not the show one.

[@redwingtrekie24]

AMEN! this is the ONLY gOOD sOng oFF thiS cd!!! DVK ROCKS!!!

[@jjr9128]

this is actually one of the better songs revisited. can't belive i over looked it...until now

[@APoliticalConfusionAndMess]

Just listened to Wasted Wine's Something Here Does Not Belong, and it reminded me of these tracks.

[@BeOptimistic4213]

@greasemonkey63945 WHOA! I haven't come back to visit this comment in about a year and just realized how many agreed with me lol. If anyone hasn't listened to the rest of DeVotchka's music I would strong recommend it so you can understand why I felt that the lead singer's voice (Nick Urata) would have been a better option for Jack's Lament. Just skipping forward on this song along to 1:40 should give you an idea on how amazing his voice is and that's just him humming/crooning!

[@xxmychemicalgirlxx]

The beginning made me laugh! ^.^

[@CaptainPommby]

Polka? YEAH!!!

[@AngieEnz84]

Well, that was fun :D.

[@redwingtrekie24]

yeah thats COOL 2!

[@xrexyxlovex]

sounds kinda Italian

[@DrYes220]

this song so fits the neverhood, the cover also fits in

[@zamwesell]

omg... too good!!!

[@JackolynSparrow]

Hahahahaha!! PUT THE BIGGEST GRIN ON MY FACE!! I HAVEN'T SMILED LIKE THIS FOR THE LONGEST TIME!! xD That's just great... ^_^

[@firerabbit36]

Wicked awesome!

[@salemblackfire]

polka! nice! this makes me laugh. lol. nice

[@666ninetails]

tehe tuba at the end it makes it sound wonderfully dark

[@kimmyFUs]

Its so high pace! xD Must dance!

[@himboharrington]

EPIC WIN!

[@BeOptimistic4213]

They should have chosen DeVotchKa to do Jack's Lament. The guys voice from All American Rejects just completely killed the song and Nick's voice would have been amazing.

[@XxElphabaPotterxX]

alucyinabucket introduced this to me.

[@pinstripetyper]

i LOVE this.

[@redwingtrekie24]

this is 2nd to Danny Elfmans original!!! BRILLIANT JOB by DVK on this ONE!!! LOVE NICKS GUITAR!!!

[@Aznewg]

LOL, sounds like the mexican/polka version of the overture xDDD i like it though

[@ladiesman777777]

dude this is polka!?

[@lenivvinel]

@kyleresse , while it would be improper to say you're wrong, because there is, in fact, a cover of Oogie Boogie's Song by Rodrigo y Gabriela; it would be more improper to leave your rude comment to wallow in its ignorance. And so, I recommend that you search, on youtube, "Oogie Boogie's Song lyrics Tiger Army" or some variation thereof and click on one of the relevant videos...I assure you there's a cover by Tiger Army.

[@azngrl2013]

strange..............but i like it ^^

[@towertooth456]

I like AAR but there version of Jack's Lament....well im sorry it just sucks..
