Who is a living legend to you?

1 Answer

Answer :

Weird Al Yankovich. I didn’t like music as a child and I heard his parodies and I started giving other songs a chance, like Smells like Nirvana, led me to listen to Smells like Teen Spirit, and Much music and Beavis and Butthead…. led to Daria and Teen mom and MTV Creeps. I had a lonely childhood and I used to pretend that Weird al was a member of my family, he took away some of the pain of childhood.
