More quotes by 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
I decided that I wanted to be a voice on every animated cartoon in the history of the world - even shows that haven't been on the air for a very long time, that's going to be harder to pull off.
Al Yankovic
I can't say enough good things about my band. I feel very fortunate that I found them when I did, very early in my career. Not only are they just great, nice guys they're some of the best musicians you're likely to find. They do everything from gangsta rap to polka music and every genre in between. It's amazing.
Al Yankovic
I enjoy all kinds of music. But it is kind of strange when I do parodies, instead of setting up drums and guitar amps.
Al Yankovic
Didn't have Nintendo, we just poured salt on snails.
Al Yankovic
I'm obviously not a rapper, and I don't have any claims to be one, really.
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
He put Ben Gay inside my jock strap and filled my tooth paste tube up with glue.
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
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
If something is good enough, it can be out there and people will see it.
Al Yankovic
How can you get bored if the audience is cheering and laughing at something you're doing?
Al Yankovic
You fake something until you're good at it.
Al Yankovic
You got me stranded on the bungee tower of love.
Al Yankovic
I think my chances of ever making it into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame are about as good as Milli Vanilli’s.
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 don't watch a lot of other people's parodies because I don't want to be unduly influenced.
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 guess I lost a little bit of self-esteem that time that you made it with the whole hockey team.
Al Yankovic
I'm very analytical, I'm very precise. I mean, I don't write for kids.
