More quotes by Al Yankovic
By the time I'm in the studio recording my parody, 10,000 parodies of that song are on YouTube.
Al Yankovic
I've always known that if I recorded an album, it would come out, and people would enjoy it! Whereas if I wrote a movie script, chances are better than even that I'd just be another guy in L.A. with a movie script in his drawer.
Al Yankovic
I knew we were having problems when you put those piranhas in my bathtub again.
Al Yankovic
As it turns out, there is a thing called the Internet, and stuff does go out there whether the suits like it or not.
Al Yankovic
In the '80s, I was putting out an album virtually every year, I think mostly based on fear - that if I didn't, people would soon forget about me.
Al Yankovic
In the '80s, I was the only game in town, I was the only one getting that kind of exposure in any rotation on MTV. Now with internet culture it seems like everyone is doing music parodies. And they're not all good!
Al Yankovic
I enjoy all kinds of music. But it is kind of strange when I do parodies, instead of setting up drums and guitar amps.
Al Yankovic
I'm still a geek on the inside, that's the important thing.
Al Yankovic
People that were a little nerdy in high school would look up to me and know it gets better.
Al Yankovic
It was difficult to get into my friends' rock bands when I was a teenager. They somehow didn't see the need for an accordion player. That's when I realized that I had to find my own path in life.
Al Yankovic
I decided that I wanted to be a voice on every animated cartoon in the history of the world - even shows that haven't been on the air for a very long time, that's going to be harder to pull off.
Al Yankovic
I'm very analytical, I'm very precise.
Al Yankovic
You slammed my face down on the barbecue grill, now my scars are all healing, but my heart never will.
Al Yankovic
I have very mixed feelings about it. On one hand, I’m concerned that the rampant downloading of my copyright-protected material over the Internet is severely eating into my album sales and having a decidedly adverse effect on my career. On the other hand, I can get all the Metallica songs I want for FREE! WOW!
Al Yankovic
I'm an ugly girl, My face makes you hurl, Sad I have it, I should bag it. Acne everywhere, Unwanted facial hair. I'm a relation to Frankenstein's creation.
Al Yankovic
You don't need to be defined by your job.
Al Yankovic
Didn't have Nintendo, we just poured salt on snails.
Al Yankovic
I make charts of songs that are good candidates, good targets, so to speak. Then I try to come up with ideas for parodies. And 99% of those ideas are horrible.
Al Yankovic
My brothers and sisters hated me because I was an only child.
Al Yankovic
I did have a child, and I was reading a lot of picture books to her, but at the same time writing a children's book was something that I'd been wanting to do for many years, pretty much since the start of my career.
