Whenever I do a parody it's not meant to make you hate anybody's music really.

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
It fit pretty nicely into my schedule because we'd pretty much finished the bulk of promotion for Mandatory Fun and were just getting geared up for the World Tour so this was a nice time for me to be working on it.
Al Yankovic
Somebody will come up to me after a show and have me sign their arm, and the next time I see them my autograph has been permanently inscribed on their arm.
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
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 mean, I hate to gloat, but I'm extremely satisfied with my position in life and the way things have worked out for me.
Al Yankovic
It's hard to force creativity and humor.
Al Yankovic
I dated Siamese twins, I slept with Big Foot, too. Get me on Sally Jesse, put me on Donahue.
