Ten years ago, “Weird Al” Yankovic made history. “Mandatory Fun,” his 14th and final studio album, hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200. To celebrate a decade of “Mandatory Fun,” Yankovic’s biggest album, the comedian has released “Polkamania!,” a polka medley of some of the biggest hits of the last 10 years, including tracks from Taylor Swift, Adele, Lil Nas X, Cardi B and more. Yankovic told The Associated Press all about the song, why he’s done releasing albums, the innate hilarity of the accordion as an instrument, and teased a few forthcoming projects.
