I've always liked Lilly Polka. Odd though it's hard for me to hear it as a polka.
It always sounds better to me the way you play it, which almost seems more "classical" in nature.

I think with basic oom-pah style guitar or banjo chord accompaniment the polka aspect would come right out.

I think you're right, Andy, but without the accompaniment, it gives me a different feel, and though I like polkas, I prefer Lilly Polka the way I hear it without the accompaniment that would make it more "polka-ish".
