He used to be annoyed by it, but after having it explained to him (by his daughter, IIRC) he decided it was ok because it wasn’t really about him; his song just happened to be the bit of 80s pop culture that got used in a prank that became very popular. I think the fact that the song isn’t bad is part of what makes the prank fun rather than malicious.
