More quotes by 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!

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.

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've always enjoyed animation and voiceover work. That's something that I've been proactive about.

I'm always a little leery about doing shows where I'm not the headliner because when I first started playing in 1982 I opened for Missing Persons and got pelted for 45 minutes. After that, I made the decision to headline no matter what, even if I was playing to seven people. I wanted people to be there to see me.

I can't get too offended when somebody parodies me.

The music has always been my bread and butter, and I've focused more of my attention on that.
Al Yankovic
There's enough people that do unfunny music. I'll leave the serious stuff to Paris Hilton and Kevin Federline.
Al Yankovic
Whenever I do a parody it's not meant to make you hate anybody's music really.
Al Yankovic
People say releasing an album is like giving birth, but it’s more like having a gallbladder operation.
Al Yankovic
Kind of wish I was dead. Maybe, I'll blow my brains out, mama, or maybe I'll go bowling.
Al Yankovic
I start with a comprehensive list of all the recent songs that have been big hits - and then I go down that list and see if I can come up with funny ideas for them. I can always come up with ideas, but not necessarily good ones!
Al Yankovic
If something is good enough, it can be out there and people will see it.
Al Yankovic
You fake something until you're good at it.
Al Yankovic
You got me stranded on the bungee tower of love.

My velvet Elvis means the world to me. Although he may not be worth much dough, he means more to me than some old Rembrandt or Van Gogh.
Al Yankovic
I'm very analytical, I'm very precise.
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
In a genre where most of the artists are one-hit wonders, I've been able to hang around longer than most serious acts. I pride myself in being a very talented leech.
