More quotes by Al Yankovic
I'll be mellow when I'm dead.
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
I don't want to pooh-pooh modern pop. I appreciate that as well, but my personal favorite kind of music is guitar-based rock. I like grunge and garage bands and alternative music, but that's more my personal taste.
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.
Al Yankovic
I like to think that I've gotten better at what I do. I spend more time and pay more attention to detail album after album. But pretty much it's stayed the same.
Al Yankovic
The irony is of course that my career has lasted a whole lot longer than some of the people I've parodied over the years.
Al Yankovic
I'll bet every great thinker and leader we've got Could see all kinds of things other people could not! So then why get upset if somebody like me Tries to look at the world just a bit differently?
Al Yankovic
You still have Top 40 radio now, but it's 40 different stations. There aren't many hits that everybody knows, and there aren't many real superstars.
Al Yankovic
Until you came along I never dated anyone this low on the food chain.
Al Yankovic
I don't watch a lot of other people's parodies because I don't want to be unduly influenced.
Al Yankovic
I can bend paper clips into the shapes of small animals.
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
When I was a kid, I thought I was going to be an architect, because when I was 12 years old I had a guidance counselor that convinced me that that was the best career choice for me.
Al Yankovic
My process for the parodies is that I get an idea for a song and then get approval from the artist and then go in and record it and probably try to get it out as soon as possible.
Al Yankovic
My brothers and sisters hated me because I was an only child.
Al Yankovic
In fact, when I come up with an idea for a parody I try to resist the urge to Google the idea to see if someone has done it already because the answer is almost always, Yes, of course they have, they've thought of it!
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
As a kid, I certainly never thought I would get to spend my life doing something fun.
Al Yankovic
You fake something until you're good at it.
Al Yankovic
Maybe I'll make a huge color tapestry from my belly button lint.
