More quotes by Al Yankovic
The music has always been my bread and butter, and I've focused more of my attention on that.
Al Yankovic
I like the guitar-driven music of Nirvana at its peak. At that point, I thought there was a lot of really exciting music coming out.
Al Yankovic
I don't think there are any new media I'd like to cover.
Al Yankovic
Not any specific one, but I was a huge fan of Frank Jacobs, I guess he wrote the plurality of the song parodies for MAD, Sam Hart, a few others, but that was also where I was first exposed to the art form of song parodies.
Al Yankovic
It's hard to really articulate what the parameters are that make one song parody-able and another song not, but if I can come up with a good enough idea for it, I go for it, and if not, then I have to move on.
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
You can play some schlock like New Kids On the Block.

As my father used to tell me, the only true sign of success in life is being able to do for a living that which makes you happy.
Al Yankovic
I don't really look at myself as the kind of person who craves attention, but I've never been to therapy so there's probably a lot of stuff about myself that I don't know.
Al Yankovic
I do a lot of different things, sometimes at the same time, and it's very difficult to figure out where I fit.
Al Yankovic
Ever since the day you left me, I've been so miserable, my dear. I feel almost as bad as I did when you were still here.
Al Yankovic
I'd rather clean all the bathrooms in Grand Central Station with my tongue than spend one more minute with you.
Al Yankovic
How can you get bored if the audience is cheering and laughing at something you're doing?
Al Yankovic
I'm known for being an up, high-energy, and optimistic kind of guy.
Al Yankovic
I'll be mellow when I'm dead.
Al Yankovic
That's a big part of my life - doing things that I'm not prepared to do. Doing things that I don't know how to do, and keep doing them until I get good at them. I always try to put myself out of my comfort zone and out of my depth, and hopefully somewhere along the line I'll catch up.
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.
