There's enough people that do unfunny music. I'll leave the serious stuff to Paris Hilton and Kevin Federline.
Al YankovicMy 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.
