More quotes by Al Yankovic
I don't watch a lot of other people's parodies because I don't want to be unduly influenced.
Al Yankovic
He put Ben Gay inside my jock strap and filled my tooth paste tube up with glue.
Al Yankovic
I can't get too offended when somebody parodies me.
Al Yankovic
A lot of my cartoon voices are basically just variations on my natural voice.
Al Yankovic
I think I'm equally as abusive as the editors normally are for the Letters and Tomatoes column, which is the fan mail part of MAD Magazine and an ongoing feature.
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
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
Every night for dinner we had a big chunk of dirt.
Al Yankovic
You can play some schlock like New Kids On the Block.
Al Yankovic
So that's why one of my rules of parody writing is that it's gotta be funny regardless of whether you know the source material. It has to work on its own merit.
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 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
When I started out, I didn't feel like I was really accepted in the music or comedy communities, and I was somewhere on the edge, but now I feel like I'm accepted in both, which is extremely gratifying.
Al Yankovic
If you want to avoid heated arguments, never discuss religion, politics, or whether the toilet paper roll should go over or under.
Al Yankovic
I know I'm a million times as humble as thou art!
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
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
Right now I'm listening to a lot of Top 40 music, because THAT'S MY JOB.
Al Yankovic
There's enough people that do unfunny music. I'll leave the serious stuff to Paris Hilton and Kevin Federline.
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.
