There are folks out there assembling videos for Weird Al's polka parties, getting footage from videos and concert performances of the various songs in each and speeding them up to match Al's tempo. The results are glorious.

I listen to most of these once a month.
Polka will never die, quoth Waldo Butters.

I remember on one of Al's MTV specials where during transitions to commercials they'd have a clip from the 'Alternative Polka' from Bad Hair Day with the music video from the original version.
Thanks for putting these all in one place, bookmarked it.
I love these songs, but I find as I get older I'm getting less in touch with pop music, so the last few I haven't recognized every song. (And for the first one I was too young to know much pop music so there was lots of stuff I didn't recognize.)
