I cut my teeth playing rock songs on the accordion when I was a teenager and my friends always thought that was extremely amusing. I think that was the genesis of my polka medleys, because every rock song I played on the accordion just sounded like a polka and my friends thought it was funny. So that was a joke that I continue up to this very day.
Al YankovicI do a lot of different things, sometimes at the same time, and it's very difficult to figure out where I fit.
Al YankovicI don't watch a lot of other people's parodies because I don't want to be unduly influenced.
