Weird Al Yankovic

have a small moment of pride but uh the writing process is is in general not that fun uh my wife will describe when i'm in a writing process and i just wander through the house like a zombie with a thousand yard stare you know just because i'm so in my own head trying to think of things But I feel a tremendous amount of accomplishment having written something. So that's definitely the best part.

The idea of like, oh, I have a body of work now and I did that. A former version of me is responsible for that.

I think so. I'm a pretty good editor of my own ideas. There are some songwriters that will write 10 songs before they have breakfast in the morning. They'll write 100 songs and record 40 of them and 12 will wind up on the album. I've never done that.

I maybe come up with 100 ideas, but I'm pretty good at looking at those ideas and saying, well, I think this would merit a three and a half minute pop song. I see what the hook is. I see where the jokes would be. I think there's enough here that I can make that into a good song. So I'll come up with 12 ideas. I will write those 12 songs and I'll record those 12 songs and I'm done.

Well, everything I did in the very beginning, certainly Another One Rides the Bus and probably My Bologna as well. I mean, that was just, you know, a dumb song about lunch meat basically that I came up with because My Sharona happened to be the song of the summer. So I recorded that in the bathroom across the hall from my campus radio station. And I can't imagine I spent a lot of time.

time on that and it probably shows i i like those songs because they're historical they're a part of my story but i wouldn't hold them up and say these are great pieces of art or something that i really struggled with they were just like some some goofy songs that i wrote when i was very young
