In the '80s, I was putting out an album virtually every year, I think mostly based on fear - that if I didn't, people would soon forget about me.

I do original songs in the style of other artists, where I try to learn all their musical idiosyncrasies and try to do something that sounds like them and yet is a bit more sick and twisted.

I know now that everything I write, I'm going to put out, and I'll have to live with it for the rest of my life.

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.

I love the way they run in fright when I turn on the kitchen light. And when I squish them on the ground, they make a pleasant crunchy sound.

I was abducted by some aliens from space who kind a looked like Jamie Farr.

As my father used to tell me, the only true sign of success in life is being able to do for a living that which makes you happy.
