My own personal tastes don't really have an effect on whether song is a parody target or not. But having said that, I try to pick songs that I actually like because I realize that I have to live with these songs for a long time, from when I'm working on them in the studio to possibly playing them onstage for the rest of my life. So I try not to pick songs that I know would drive me crazy.

As much as people are griping about the Internet taking sales away from artists, it's been a huge promotional tool for me.

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.

My wife went off with Elvis.

Not any specific one, but I was a huge fan of Frank Jacobs, I guess he wrote the plurality of the song parodies for MAD, Sam Hart, a few others, but that was also where I was first exposed to the art form of song parodies.

My brothers and sisters hated me because I was an only child.

If you want to avoid heated arguments, never discuss religion, politics, or whether the toilet paper roll should go over or under.
